Field notes
The site recommends reading its five linked pieces in sequence, moving from research on closures to the district’s savings rationale, staffing, Vernon’s size target, and contacting the board. Its homepage also gives dates and times for student and general listening sessions at Cleveland and Franklin high schools, followed by the board’s stated final-vote date. It identifies the project as unaffiliated with Portland Public Schools.
