Follow-up is good

I’m glad to see Mayor Potter returned to Jefferson High School this week, and that he reported some progress on issues of particular concern to the community. Free bus travel for 6th through 12th graders is a good move for all Portland students. Can any reader tell me if any progress was made in the Portland Public Schools budget, towards providing equitable course offerings at Jefferson so the same range of challenging classes is provided there as in other Portland high schools?

Regardless, kudos to Mayor Potter for going back, with less fanfare than the week-long visit earlier in the year, to report on actions taken, and to listen some more.
