The district is contributing
$800,000 and the city is pitching
in $200,000.
Despite the reduction in Tri-
Met’s contribution, Duyck is
still not pleased about the ar-
rangement.
“TriMet deserves credit for
attempting to address the issue
of regional equity when it
comes to paying for Youth Pass-
es used by high school students
in Portland Public Schools. That
said, the arrangement is still
bad precedent, relies
on too many regional
dollars to address a lo-
cal issue for Portland
and a more sustain-
able, regionally fair
solution ought to be
thought of beyond the
next f iscal year,”
Duyck says.
The agreement still must be
approved by the Portland
School Board, the TriMet board
and the Portland City Council.
Trips beyond school
TriMet is subsidizing a level
of service far beyond state re-
quirements. Oregon law only
requires school districts to pro-
vide transportation to high
school students living more
than a mile and a half from
their schools, students living
closer to school but who have
unsafe routes, and some spe-
cial-needs students.
This year, 12,500 Portland
high schoolers received the
passes. According to the school
district, only around 8,000 stu-
dents are covered by the state
requirements.
And most of the rides taken
by the students are not to and
from their schools. The passes
allow them to ride anywhere
within TriMet’s service area at
any time. An analysis conduct-
ed by TriMet found that be-
tween Jan. 1 and June 30, 2011,
Portland students took a total
of 637,282 trips to and from
school. They took more than
four times as many trips — al-
most 3 million — somewhere
else.
TriMet has been providing
reduced or free service to some
or all high school students in
the Portland district since the
early 1990s. The program origi-
nally only covered students un-
der the umbrella of state law
and those from low-income
families who qualified for free
or reduced lunch programs. It
was expanded in recent years
to include all students in grades
9 to 12.
Officials with TriMet, the
school district and the city offer
multiple justifications
for the program.
Among other things,
they say it helps assure
that more students
make it to school every
day, increasing the
graduation rate. They
also note the cost to the
district has been far less than
the cost of providing traditional
bus service to high school stu-
dents. Decreasing the number
of school buses and cars on the
roads reduces pollution and
congestion around the high
schools at the beginning and
end of each school day. And it
encourages students to become
frequent transit riders, they
say.
“The program benefits the
students and the community.
That’s why our partners sup-
port the program and want it to
continue,” says Isaacs, refer-
ring to TriMet and Portland.
History of subsidy
Oregon first required school
districts to provide transporta-
tion for their students in 1991.
Most districts contract for tra-
ditional yellow buses. Portland
and Eugene have been granted
waivers by the state Board of
Education for high school stu-
dents because they have well-
developed public transit sys-
tems.
At first Portland only provid-
ed passes to students covered
by state law and those from
low-income families. The pro-
gram began expanding to in-
clude all high school students
after former Portland Mayor
Tom Potter and former Mult-
nomah County Chairwoman
Diane Linn met with more than
100 youths from throughout the
region in May 2005. The meet-
ing led to a youth summit in
June 2006 that adopted a Bill of
Rights for Children and Youth.
It included a right to education,
extracurricular activities and
recreation.
The document was formally
adopted by the city and county
a short time later. The Mult-
nomah Youth Commission,
which is comprised of young
people in the
city and county,
then adopted an
action plan for
ensuring the
rights. It called
for “free access
to public trans-
portation in or-
der to support
access to school,
extracurricular activities and
employment.”
A pilot program to provide
free passes to all students in
Jefferson, Franklin and Roos-
evelt high schools began in the
2008-09 school year. It was fund-
ed by the state Business Energy
Tax Credit, which the Legisla-
ture passed to encourage ener-
gy conservation. It was expand-
ed to all high school student in
the 2009-10 and 2010-11 school
years, funded with $2.5 million
from the state and $800,000
from the district each year. The
$800,000 was roughly the same
amount the district had previ-
ously spent providing passes to
low-income students.
The state eliminated the
BETC funding for a portion of
the 2011-12 school year, leaving a
$675,000 shortfall. It wasmade up
by an additional $75,000 in school
district funds, $225,000 from the
city, and TriMet agreeing to
forgo $375,000 in lost revenue.
With all BETC funding elimi-
nated for the current school
year, TriMet considered drop-
ping the Youth Pass program.
Former Mayor Sam Adams
pressured the agency to con-
tinue, however. He publicly
threatened to charge TriMet $2
million for the bus stops on city
sidewalks and use the money
to buy the passes. TriMet re-
lented and agreed to forgo
$1.75 million in revenue. The
school district contributed
$950,000 and the city chipped in
$200,000.
The public squabbling and in-
creased subsidy from TriMet
raised the ire of Duyck and other
elected officials outside the Port-
land school district, however.
They complained that employers
in their areas were subsidizing a
program that was not even of-
fered to their students.
When she announced the ten-
tative extension last week, PPS
Superintendent Smith said it
will be reviewed by the end of
the year. According to the letter
Smith sent Mayor Charlie Hales
and TriMet General Manager
Neil McFarlane, the review is in-
tended to “identify changes to
make it financially sustainable.”
In his response, McFarlane
agreed.
“While this is an exceptional
program, I have heard from
many board members, commu-
nity stakeholders and jurisdic-
tional partners from across the
region that the program is nei-
ther sustainable nor equitable,
especially at a time when we
have to cut service and raise
fares to fill our budget gaps,”
McFarlane wrote.

Program likely to cost $3 million

At the end of the school day high school students crowded around the bus stop waiting for a TriMet bus outside Madison High School. Portland
Public Schools is renewing the TriMet pass program for high school students.
