The Commission Scolaire des Portages-de-l'Outaouais is a public francophone school board operating in Gatineau, Quebec. The CSPO was created after a merger between the former Commission Scolaire Outaouais-Hull (CSOH) and the Commission Scolaire d'Aylmer school boards in 1998.

It currently runs schools in the Hull and Aylmer sectors of the city of Gatineau as well as in the municipalities of Chelsea, Luskville and La Peche. Its current president is Jocelyn Blondin who represents also a riding as trustee (or commissioner). The current general manager is Lucie Lafleur.

The school board runs 21 primary schools and 4 high schools including École Secondaire Grande-Rivière, École secondaire de l'Île and École Secondaire Mont-Bleu. It also runs the Ecole secondaire des Lacs in the municipality of La Peche (Sainte-Cecile de Masham). Overall, all schools in the CSPO area has a total of about 14 000 students in all levels.

Its motto is : Ensemble vers la reussite! (Together towards success)
