OSD is a "Public School"?

I don't think it's accurate to say OSD is a public school. It's not private, either. And "state-run" sounds like it's a mental hospital or something. Is there a better term? --Micahbrwn (talk) 22:20, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

It is indeed a state-run public school.

Anyway, the action mentioned in last paragraph is now dropped... In October, Superintendent Castillo announced that contracting out instructional programs to a local education agency was not in the best interest of students at the state schools. She announced that students would be served best by programs continuing to be operated by the Oregon Department of Education. In December, Castillo asked Department staff for a study on the recommendation to move the OSB programs to the OSD campus. The results of the study are attached. reference - http://web1.ode.state.or.us/news/releases/default.aspx?yr=2007&kw=&rid=540

and as the result of the protests by the OSD and OSB alumni, parents, students and staff, the State Legislature (I'm trying to find the appropriate references), passed emergency bills to establish the School Advisory Boards to govern both schools separately. (one reference - http://web1.ode.state.or.us/news/releases/default.aspx?yr=2007&kw=&rid=594

another reference - http://web1.ode.state.or.us/news/releases/default.aspx?yr=2007&kw=&rid=561

I kept copies of newspaper articles at my own blog, about the protests http://blog.deafread.com/dsammy/category/oregon/page/2/

I will leave to you to try to create the neutrality of additional information because I'm alumni of the school, making it difficult to do a justified job of neutrality. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Samuelsenwd (talk • contribs) 00:22, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
