PPS students will be back in school on Monday. And that’s a win for everyone.

But it won't be at a public board meeting, though one was scheduled for today. There are "last minute issues" that preclude that, per a district statement, though they "remain hopeful" for school tomorrow. Excuse me while I go blow into a paper bag now.

Woke up this AM to bargaining updates from both @PPSConnect and @pdxteachers which (typically) raise more questions than answers. I have asked for clarifications from all sides, but here's what we know right now: (1/7)

Two very different narratives emerging this AM from the PPS/PAT negotiations. PAT says there *was* a tentative agreement and the full board turned it down. PPS board chair says there *was not* a TA and that they were still going back+forth re: class size committees.

Woke up feeling hopeful that we will see a tentative agreement on the table today bet. PPS+PAT, incl lang on makeup hours+health coverage. My unease: will it be ratified? Emotions have just run so high.

Pretty publicly quiet on the PPS/PAT bargaining front today, which doesn't mean stuff isn't happening. It's maybe a good sign – heads down, trying to get to agreement on the big three -- workload, planning time and compensation -- is my sense.

@chalkup It fluctuates so much too. Llewellyn is weirdly small this year, but 4 years ago my son has 35 in 4th grade and five years ago my daughter had 30 in Kindergarten. These things can change very quickly.

Big class sizes a sticking point in Portland teacher strike: See which elementary schools have many, few or no such classes. We make it easy for you to see biggest, smallest classes in PPS plus the size of each class in any elementary school oregonlive.com/education/2023…

@GovTinaKotek That’s it? What are you doing? How are you helping to get money to PPS so that the teachers’ very basic demands can be met?

We want to be clear: PPS is not and will not use a teacher’s access to healthcare coverage as a bargaining tool.

We had a storm here in Abisko last night which meant one thing for me, go head to the west of the lake and find some plants covered in ice from lake Torneträsk The morning didn't disappoint and found some interesting plants covered in ice!
