Community Transitional School

Mission
Community Transitional School is a private non-profit Pre-K-8 school dedicated to the educational needs of children whose families are homeless or in transition, or children otherwise at risk of school failure, throughout the Portland metro area.
Bottom Line for Portland
Our students are inherently at a disadvantage without a global pandemic, and Covid-19 has only exacerbated their vulnerability. CTS provides:
• A highly qualified and experienced teaching staff that includes four state-certified teachers, two full-time instructional assistants, one full-time teacher's aide, and a full-time Title-I instructor.
• A small, closely knit school with four combined-grades classrooms: Pre-K – Kindergarten, 1st – 2nd grade, 3rd – 5th grade, 6th – 8th grade.
• Two nutritious meals, breakfast and lunch, served each school day as part of the USDA school meal program. • Essential door-to-door transportation.
• Instructional Assistants and an Aide who offer one-on-one learning.
• Twice per year on-site Tooth Taxi dental clinic and once per year vision screening provided by Pacific University's College of Optometry.
• 5-week Summer Session • On-site Clothes Closet and Hygiene products

“I was homeless when I first came to CTS. Since I came… CTS has changed my life. The school has given me clothing, food, and many things my family and I needed. It has given me a place that is comforting to me and my family.” Soios, alumnus.
