On May 20, Multnomah County voters participated in a pivotal election focusing on school board leadership and a significant $1.8 billion bond for Portland Public Schools. With four out of seven school board seats contested, the election's outcome could reshape educational governance. Voter turnout was low at just 20 percent by Wednesday morning. The bond, aimed at enhancing safety and modernization of school facilities, symbolizes a commitment to educational quality in the community.
The passage of the 2025 school bond reflects a shared belief that every child deserves to learn in a school that is safe, modern, and designed for success.
For voters within the PPS boundaries, Tuesday's election is particularly consequential. Four of the school board's seven seats were up for grabs, and voters were asked to consider a $1.8 billion school bond.
