Welcome to Buckman SUN!
Welcome to Buckman SUN! Our SUN Community School (Schools Uniting Neighborhoods) program supports the Buckman community by offering educationally enriching after-school classes; community gatherings; winter craft classes and family engagement events; life skills classes for caregivers; and social support coordination for students and families. Buckman's SUN program is a collaboration of Multnomah County Department of County Human Services, Impact Northwest, and Portland Public Schools.
