School Overview

The Dalles Middle School sits in one of Oregon's most historically rich communities — a small Columbia River Gorge city where Lewis and Clark once camped and the old Oregon Trail ended. The school serves a working-class, tight-knit community, and while test scores run below state averages, families who value a close community feel and the unmatched outdoor lifestyle of the Gorge — think windsurfing, hiking, and stunning river views — will find a lot to love about raising kids here. Families looking for stronger academic metrics may want to explore additional enrichment options alongside the school experience.
