Humbolt Elementary School

Canyon City is a small, tight-knit ranching community in the high desert of eastern Oregon, where Grant County's wide-open landscapes define a slower, more rugged pace of life. Humbolt Elementary serves a rural student body where community ties run deep, though its academic scores in English and math currently sit in the lower range compared to schools statewide. Families drawn to the area tend to value the outdoors, small-school familiarity, and the close relationships that come with a community where everyone knows everyone — and may find that supplementing learning at home goes a long way here.
