Do you love chess and want to make a positive impact on young minds? Our after-school chess club is looking for a passionate volunteer to help teach and guide students in the wonderful world of chess! No professional experience required—just a love for the game and patience with kids. If you’re interested, please contact Metzger Office for more information.

Help our students sharpen their minds while having fun!

Join Shawne Martinez, a Metzger parent, every Wednesday on the Metzger Bike Bus!

They meet at SW Oak and 65th at 7:35. We ride along the route and make a stop at the back gate of Metzger Park. Then, we ride to school! Anyone can join along the way. Every Wednesday rain or shine!

We are excited to invite our Pacific Islander families to a special celebration in your honor! This event is a wonderful opportunity for our PI community to come together, share stories, and celebrate our rich cultures. We kindly encourage each family to bring a dish that is meaningful to them, as we gather to enjoy good food and great company. This event is intended as a space for our PI families to connect and strengthen our bond as a school community. We look forward to celebrating with you!

Please email or call Ms. Marcy Padilla (503-431-4602) if you have any questions!

We invite all Metzger families to join us for a special multicultural celebration! This is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate our diverse community by sharing a dish that represents your culture or family tradition. Let’s come together to enjoy delicious food, build connections, and strengthen relationships through the universal language of food. Everyone is welcome, and we can’t wait to experience the many flavors and stories that make our school community so special!
