School Overview

Ron Russell Middle School sits in the outer southeast Portland neighborhood of Lents, a working-class community that's seen a lot of change over the years but still holds onto a strong sense of local identity. The school serves a diverse student population, and families here tend to value a community-rooted environment where kids from all kinds of backgrounds learn side by side. For families moving into the 97266 zip code, it's worth knowing the academic scores are below state average, so those looking for extra academic support may want to connect early with teachers and explore supplemental resources to help their kids thrive.
