Neil Armstrong Middle School

Neil Armstrong Middle School sits in Forest Grove, a small city at the edge of Oregon's Tualatin Valley wine country, where the pace is quieter and the community ties run deep. The school serves a diverse student body in a district that's working hard to close gaps and grow, making it a place where families who are actively involved in their kids' education can make a real difference. For families drawn to small-town living with easy access to Portland and the Coast Range foothills, Forest Grove has a genuine charm — though parents should be aware that academically, Armstrong is still building momentum and may benefit most from those who come ready to supplement and engage.
