King welcomes hundreds of visitors every year. We are delighted to share our work. In an effort to consolidate group visits, we have set up a variety of opportunities for visitors to join us this year.

King's Annual Celebration of Learning Scheduled for May 8 at the Portland Expo

Ask students about what they have learned and how they have learned. Talk with teachers about their expeditions and teaching processes. Browse hundreds of expedition products from this academic year on exhibition at the Portland Expo. For more information about this event, contact Hiram Sibley.

Schedule a Special Group Visit

King receives dozens of requests for group visits annually from schools, businesses, and organizations interested in ELS, school reform, and effective technology integration. We have a requested donation of $80 per person per day, $50 for half-days, for group visits. To inquire about group visits, please contact Hiram Sibley(sibleh@portlandschools.org), David Grant (grantd@portlandschools.org), and Michael McCarthy (mccarm@portlandschools.org).

Individual Visits are Welcome

Individual visits are arranged by agreement between the person requesting the visit and a hosting staff person. If there is a classroom or an individual that you would like to visit, please contact that staff person directly.
