Terra Linda Tiger Tale
May 28, 2021
Principal's Message
Dear Terra Linda Families,
As we head into a 3-day weekend in honor of Memorial Day, I hope you are able to spend time together as a family. Next week, we have 4 days in a row of typical school. On Tuesday, students will follow their typical Monday schedule. On Wednesday, students will follow their typical Tuesday schedule. This means that In-Person Hybrid students will attend class at Terra Linda from 9:00am to 11:15am. Buses will follow the normal routes and times. Full CDL students will have class from 12:15pm to 2:30pm. Specials and small groups will follow a typical Tuesday schedule. To accommodate Grab & Go, Outdoor Library, and Meal Box Pick-up, we are moving that time to 11:45am to 12:30pm. We will then continue with a normal school schedule on Thursday and Friday.
Camp Achieve
Here is the Camp Achieve Application. If you would like to be eligible to participate this summer, be sure to complete the application by Friday, June 4. Space in Camp Achieve is limited, so families will receive a confirmation email the week of June 7.
June Assembly
All students and families are invited to attend our last assembly on Wednesday, June 16 at 8:30am on Zoom. Please join using one device per family. We are planning a video to celebrate the year that will feature all of our students, and we will also celebrate our 5th graders with a slide show.
Grade Level End of Year Celebrations
Teachers will communicate the plan with families. Please watch Seesaw or Canvas for details.
Cheer for our 5th Graders!
All Terra Linda families are invited to cheer for our 5th graders on Friday, June 18. 5th grade families will be driving through the Terra Linda Parking Lot on the 18th between 5:30 and 6:30pm. All other Terra Linda families are invited to cheer them on by standing along the parade route (see map below)
- 5:15-6:30: Stand on the sidewalk between NW 143rd and the entrance to the Terra Linda parking lot.
- 5:30-6:45: Stand along NW Pettygrove Street, NW 131st Avenue, or NW Westlawn Terrace in the Terra Linda Neighborhood.

Rent Assistance Information (Repeat)
Dear Terra Linda Families,
The Oregon eviction protections are set to expire at the end of June. This means renters will need to pay back rent that's still due. The state started taking applications yesterday for additional rental assistance through the Oregon Emergency Rent Assistance Program. People are eligible if at least one person in the household had a financial impact from the pandemic (a lost job, decrease in income), and their household income is at or below 80% of the area's median income (about $77,000 for a family of 4 in the Portland metro area, or $51,000 in rural communities).
Tenants can be approved for up to 12 months of past-due rent, and three months' upcoming rent. The payments will go directly to landlords, property owners, and utility companies.
The money will be allocated based on need, so everyone who applies for the program will go through a review process.
Assistance is offered to all renters, regardless of citizenship or immigration status.
Here's a link to the application and information on how to apply:

Estimadas familias de Terra Linda,
Las protecciones de desalojo de Oregon expirarán a fines de junio. Esto significa que los inquilinos deberán pagar el alquiler atrasado que aún se adeuda. El estado comenzo a recibir solicitudes ayer para asistencia adicional para el alquiler a través del Programa de Asistencia para el Alquiler de Emergencia de Oregon. Las personas son elegibles si al menos una persona en el hogar tuvo un impacto financiero de la pandemia (un trabajo perdido, disminución en los ingresos) y el ingreso de su hogar es igual o inferior al 80% del ingreso medio del área (alrededor de $ 77,000 para una familia de 4 en el area metro de Portland, o $51,000 en comunidades rurales).
Los inquilinos pueden ser aprobados para hasta 12 meses de alquiler vencido y tres meses de alquiler venidero. Los pagos irán directamente a los dueños, propietarios, y empresas de servicios públicos.
El dinero se asignará según la necesidad, por lo que todos los que soliciten el programa pasarán por un proceso de revisión.
Se ofrece asistencia a todos los inquilinos, independientemente de su ciudadanía o estado migratorio.
Aquí hay un enlace a la solicitud e información sobre cómo presentar una solicitud:
