Centennial School District (CSD) serves the southeastern edge of Portland, bridging the cities of Portland and Gresham. With steady growth over the past decade, the district continues to expand to meet the needs of its increasing population. Located within 20 minutes of downtown Portland, Portland International Airport (PDX), and Mt. Hood Community College, Centennial provides students with access to strong educational resources, career opportunities, and higher education pathways.

The district serves approximately 6,700 students across 11 schools, including elementary, middle, high schools, and alternative education programs. To accommodate its growing student population, the district completed a new elementary school and a major renovation of Centennial High School in 2003. With 31% of students from diverse backgrounds, Centennial embraces equity, inclusion, and academic excellence to ensure all students receive a well-rounded and supportive education.

Student attendance is a top priority for the Centennial School District. The district actively partners with community organizations to improve and maintain strong attendance rates, ensuring students stay engaged, supported, and on track for success. With a commitment to academic achievement, student engagement, and community collaboration, Centennial School District continues to be an excellent choice for families in the Portland metro area.
