Sweet Home Junior High School

Sweet Home Junior High sits in a small mill town tucked into the foothills of the Cascade Mountains, where the Santiam River runs nearby and outdoor life is very much part of the culture. Families here tend to be tight-knit and rooted in the community, and the school reflects that small-town character where students aren't just a number. Math scores trend a bit stronger than English, so families who want to supplement reading and writing skills may want to stay engaged at home, but for kids who thrive in a close community rather than a large suburban campus, this can be a comfortable fit.
