June 2006 correction
The Mid-county Memo strives to be accurate, thorough and complete in its coverage and corrects significant errors of fact. If you find an error in the Memo, please call 503-287-8904 or e-mail our editor, Darlene Vinson, at: editor@midcountymemo.com.
The June 2006 feature story about Helensview School, an alternative school operated by the Multnomah Education Service District, in east Portland, stated an incorrect date for its opening at the former Sumner Elementary school in the Parkrose School District.
MESD began this type of “alternative school in 1977 ” at a different location. In 1994 MESD’s alternative school was moved to the vacant Sumner Elementary building at 8678 N.E. Sumner St. in 1995 and renamed Helensview School.
We regret the error.
