      <title>Education Summit (Thursday, August 27, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 13px;" color="#000000" face="Calibri Light, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Beyond the Rankings: Fixing Our Education System&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 13px;" color="#000000" face="Calibri Light, sans-serif"&gt;We have been reading more about Oregon’s school system woes. We hear about school funding at all-time highs, but then read stories about Oregon’s poor national rankings for student scores.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 13px;" color="#000000" face="Calibri Light, sans-serif"&gt;But there is more to the story. Join us on August 27 to hear from three education leaders as they break down what they think underlies these issues. They will be joined by Senator Courtney Neron Misslin, an educator herself, who currently serves on the Senate Interim Committee on Education.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 13px;" color="#000000" face="Calibri Light, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Featuring:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 13px;" color="#000000" face="Calibri Light, sans-serif"&gt;Dan Goldman, Superintendent of Northwest Regional Education Service District&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 13px;" color="#000000" face="Calibri Light, sans-serif"&gt;Travis Reiman, Superintendent of Hillsoro School District&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 13px;" color="#000000" face="Calibri Light, sans-serif"&gt;Andy Saultz, Dean of Lewis &amp;amp; Clark Graduate School of Education and Counseling&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
