May Day has been a big deal elsewhere.
This May 1 (Friday), for a growing number us in the United States of America, normal day-to-day business stops and we come together to remember a tragedy — the Haymarket Massacre. We celebrate and make visible the power of the labor movement, all of the people's movements the massacre helped inspire.
Here are a few of the events happening on May Day in cities & towns around Oregon: https://www.daywithoutanimmigrantor.com/events #MayDay #events #Oregon #Eugene #SpringfieldOR

At Oregon Community Alliance for Public Education (CAPE) public forum. According to an anonymous, social media survey, kids are leaving #SpringfieldOR because of class sizes, lack of emotional support, lack of challenge, and opportunity to attend another district.
However, Springfield's A3 High School has 50% enrollment from other districts.
Other factors in declining enrollment:
External: Economic, Societal, Political, Big Picture
--falling birth rates, access to housing, aging population, lack of jobs, cost of living, family stressorsInternal: Policies, Procedures, Practices, Decisions, goals, top-down management, standardized testing, unengaging curriculum
2026 is perfect storm of external and internal factors building for 20 years of No Child Left Behind for all schools.
According to Oregon Department of Education, all school enrollment was rising until COVID, then saw decline overall, but Springfield is dropping ahead of curve.
Bend and LaPine are examples of growing populations of retirees with no increase in student enrollment.
