Subject: May 17 School Board Elections
To the CPPS Board, members and friends:
Here is basic information on the May 17 special election.
Three Portland Public Schools (PPS) Board seats are on the ballot:
Zone 4 - currently Derry Jackson
Zone 5 - currently Lolenzo Poe
Zone 6 - currently Julia Brim-Edwards. None of the current Directors is running for re-election, so all 3 seats will be
filled by new people.
NOTE: Candidates represent a district, but are elected citywide. No matter
where you live in the district, you vote in all 3 races.
For more information, including the
online voter's pamphlet with candidate statements, go to
It also contains a map of School Board districts. (the map can be zoomed in to
get schools detail in each
district) There will be at least three candidate forums I know of:

Greet

Thursday, April 28 at 7:00 PM - League of Women Voters and CPPS
