Our Mission: for Public Education
Preserve. Restore. Enhance.
Advocating for evidence-based policies that empower students, teachers and parents. Because public education is a Civil RIght.

OPEN’s 2022-25 legislative priorities are:
Limiting school testing for young learners that misdirects classroom time and resources to testing instead of comprehensive and integrated learning
Restoring the balance between in-person instruction and assessments by reducing screentime in classrooms.
Supporting the revision of the QEM (Quality Education Model) and fully funding schools
The Oregon Public Education Network is a non-profit advocacy alliance of educators, parents and education advocates who work together to further effective public education for all Oregon students. Our purpose is to protect, preserve, promote, and improve public education for all Oregon students. We share information on critical issues and support each other in actions which have positive effects on our public schools that are currently threatened.
