There are a lot of options available from Portland Public Schools including language immersion, neighborhood public, and charter schools. We did research on all the choices and are so happy we were able to choose Cottonwood. It''s a hyper-localized and environmentally conscious program that engages our kindergarteners. The teachers and administrators are awesome. We love the adventure playground and frequent trips to Cottonwood Bay. This is a wonderful school.
