Description

The school board overseeing Portland Public Schools faces many tough challenges ahead, the editorial board writes. They must let students’ needs and ensuring the district’s long-term stability guide their decision-making — not in-the-moment desperation.

But their panicked proposals last Tuesday to raid reserves or hastily swap administrator cuts for teachers offered a startling reminder of how quickly good intentions can turn reckless.
