Teachers and classified personnel in North Wasco County School District 21 and the Hood River County School District have opted to hold after-school rallies Wednesday to call for the Oregon Legislature to approve increased school funding rather than walk out as will happen in some Portland-area districts. The District 21 Education Association plans to meet at the North Wasco County Aquatic Center at 3:45 Wednesday afternoon and walk to Holstein’s Coffeehouse before dispersing. The Hood River Education Association, Oregon School Employees Association, and district board and administration will all take part in a “Red For Ed” rally in Jackson Park at 4:30 Wednesday afternoon. District Superintendent Dan Goldman said all involved agreed students can’t afford to miss another day of school after a large number of days were lost to winter weather.
