Illahee Elementary School

Illahee Elementary sits in Camas, a small city on the Columbia River Gorge that often surprises newcomers with how much it has going for it — a charming downtown, strong community pride, and easy access to both Portland and the outdoors. The school performs solidly across the board, with science scores that really stand out, making it a good fit for families who want a well-rounded academic experience without the pressure of a hyper-competitive environment. It tends to attract families drawn to Camas's tight-knit feel and the kind of neighborhood where kids actually play outside after school.
