In 2021-2022, 115 students took the STAMP exam in their preferred language. We awarded 346 credits, and 22 students qualified for the Oregon Seal of Biliteracy.

The final exam will take place on Wednesday, June 21st (including 8th graders). Watch for information about signing up to come out in a couple weeks.

They played their hearts out and came away placing THIRD in the entire state, this is a HUGE achievement! Last year was the first time Parkrose had placed in the top 5 at State EVER in our school history (we took fourth) and now we have done it two years in a row with an even higher placement!

Bronco Families we are asking for your help! Before and after school we do our best to get car riding students out quickly and keep traffic moving. We also always want to keep the safety of our students at the forefront, to do so we have a crossing guard at the crosswalk between the MS and HS. There have been times when the crossing guard has come close to getting hit by a car while trying to provide our students a safe place to cross the street. Please help us by watching for the crossing guard if you come to pick up your student!
