Educators want to raise Oregon's failing grades
Briefly

The recent State of Education panel by the Portland Metro Chamber failed to address President Trump's controversial education policies, which aim to diminish the role of the U.S. Department of Education.

Both the panelists and the moderator overlooked this critical national issue, which raises questions about the state's priorities and the effectiveness of its educational strategies given that spending has risen significantly beyond inflation.
