School Overview

Colton Middle School serves a tight-knit rural community tucked into the forested hills of Clackamas County, about 30 miles southeast of Portland. The school draws from a small, close-community where many families have deep roots in the area, and that small-town familiarity carries into the hallways — kids tend to know their teachers well, and school events feel genuinely communal. Families who value a slower pace of life, outdoor access, and a school where their child won't get lost in the crowd will find Colton's rural setting has a real appeal, even as the school works to build on its academic performance.
