Karen Phillips, Principal
Mission - Each student will explore his/her career
interests, learn through application, and graduate
ready for college and careers.
Principal’s Message:
A significant component of the North Clackamas high school experience is the opportunity for every high
school student to explore career and technical courses at one of the three Sabin-Schellenberg campuses.
Students learn industry level knowledge and skills and apply them in authentic settings such as in our deli,
cosmetology salon, community pre-school, student store, or automotive shop. Working under the supervision
of licensed teachers experienced in their industry, students receive a personalized education that engages
them in learning as they explore their career and personal interests. All programs align their courses with those
offered at local colleges, allowing students to earn college credits while in high school. Additionally, juniors and
seniors may work in internships at local business sites, gaining real-life experience while earning college credit.
Description:
The North Campus was originally opened in 1967 as the Owen Sabin Occupational Skills Center, beginning the
North Clackamas School District’s forty-plus year commitment to career and technical education. Today, the
Center hosts 15 programs, and includes the Ben Schellenberg Technical Center known as the South Campus,
and the 14 acre Land Lab on Hubbard Road, adjacent to Clackamas High School. The Center enrolls over 3400
high school students annually in grades nine through twelve.

Parenting, Academics,
Careers & Employment
PACE is a comprehensive high school diploma completion
program for pregnant and parenting students (male and
female between the ages of 13-20). PACE connects with
the Clackamas County Department of Human Services,
Healthy Start and the Clackamas Technical Education
Consortium Youth Services to support students and their
children. These agencies and the counseling offices at the
NCSD high schools refer student parents to the program’s
coordinator. Students from other school districts may
enroll with permission from the home district.
While parents are taking classes, on-site care for babies
and toddlers, between six weeks and 36 months of age,
is available. Besides the academic classes in Language
Arts, Math, Science and Social Studies, PACE students take
classes on parenting. Students are eligible to enroll in
SSC and home high school classes to meet standard high
school diploma requirements.
