School Overview

Tucked into the charming coastal village of Nehalem, this small-town elementary punches well above its weight academically, landing in the top fifth of Oregon schools. Families drawn to the laid-back rhythm of the North Oregon Coast — think fishing, kayaking, and tight-knit community events — will find a school that reflects those same values, with strong English scores and solid math results that rival much larger districts. It's a great fit for families who want a slower pace of life without sacrificing educational quality, all within a few minutes of some of the most beautiful estuary scenery in the Pacific Northwest.
