District Goal: WE empower all students to achieve post-high school success.
Furlough Day & Work Share Information
The Beaverton School District is moving to a four-day work week (reducing hours by 20%) through the summer, effective May 15 through July 24. Qualifying employees will have their hours and pay reduced by 20% to be eligible for unemployment and federal CARES Act funds through the Oregon Work Share program. The result of a *partial furlough plus access to CARES Act funds ($600/person/week) will mean no net loss of income and have no impact on benefits. This will protect as many instructional days and staff positions as possible in the 2020-21 school year, while providing a benefit to employees now.
* “Partial furlough” means a 20% reduction in an employee’s scheduled work hours and a 20% reduction in that employee’s compensation.
Please visit the Furlough/Work Share Information webpage for up-to-date information and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ).

Dreambox is an adaptive math program that is being used in the Beaverton School District by K-8 students. Dreambox constantly collects data from students and provides them with lessons, hints, and pacing to best match each child as an individual learner.
