Phase 7c.0 — Full Oregon school district list collection.

Goal: assemble a complete list of ALL Oregon public school districts (excluding ESDs and charter-only entities) with basic information. Output is the input for downstream batched processing — keep it tight, no software/standards detection here.

For each district, capture:
  • name (full official name including district number, e.g. "Portland Public Schools 1J")
  • hq_city
  • county
  • enrollment (latest available year, e.g. 2023-24 or 2024-25)
  • enrollment_year
  • enrollment_source (URL where you got the number)
  • homepage URL

Sources to consult:
  • Oregon Department of Education district directory at ode.oregon.gov (likely under "Educator Resources" or "Schools" → "District Directory" or "Public School Directory"). web_search "ODE Oregon district directory" if needed.
  • Niche.com / Ballotpedia / NCES for cross-checking enrollment numbers
  • Wikipedia "List of school districts in Oregon"

Oregon has approximately 197 public school districts. Be exhaustive — getting 180+ is the goal. If a district lacks enrollment data, leave that field null but include the entry.

Save to /mnt/session/outputs/all-districts.json as a JSON array of district objects. Sort by enrollment descending (so largest first).

Stop and report:
  • Total district count
  • Source(s) you used for the list
  • Any districts you couldn't find enrollment for
  • Counties represented
