TTVA Weekly Newsletter

Congratulations, Mr. Brack!

Mr. Brack first got involved with slam poetry in college. He has incorporated this art form in his classrooms over the years. Last month he and Mrs. DeWolfe led a field trip to Verselandia, Portland’s annual citywide high school poetry slam championship at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall. TTVA students had the opportunity to see performances from students across the Portland area. It was a great event.

Please watch your email for a DocuSign from Tigard-Tualatin Virtual Academy for our annual Family Income Survey. We ask that each family completes this confidential survey.

This Washington County Chamber of Commerce event is also an excellent opportunity for current and graduating students to engage in career exploration, and learn about diverse employment fields, first-time and summer employment opportunities, and summer internships.

Admission for job seekers will be divided into two time frames:
10:00 AM – 1:00 PM – Current or Graduating High School Students
1:30 PM – 4:00 PM – Adult Applicants (18+/not in high school)

This is not a career expo for exploration purposes (although it can be a good way for students to learn about opportunities in the local area), but rather it is to connect job seekers with employers who are hiring now.
