About 150 people showed up at Jefferson High School Saturday morning to participate in the last Portland Public Schools meeting on district wide restructuring. The meeting was held in North Portland after public outcry that no input was solicited from the Roosevelt and Jefferson community, two schools likely to be affected.
An uncommon diversity of age and racial demographics was present, fitting well with the community and administration’s focus: equity among schools.
