Forest Grove School District (FGSD) serves the communities of Cornelius, Dilley, Forest Grove, and Gales Creek in Washington County, Oregon. With over 5,500 students enrolled across nine elementary schools, two middle schools, and one high school, the district is committed to academic excellence, bilingual education, and career-focused learning.

FGSD offers a Dual Language program that allows elementary students to learn both English and Spanish, fostering bilingual proficiency and cultural awareness. Additionally, the district provides a K-12 online learning program, enabling students with varied learning styles and needs to receive a flexible, personalized education. At the high school level, students gain real-world work experience through career technical education (CTE) programs, including metals, woodworking, and agriculture, preparing them for college and skilled trades careers.

Located 25 miles west of downtown Portland in the Tualatin Valley, Forest Grove has transformed from a small farm town in the 19th century into a growing suburban community. With Tuality Forest Grove Hospital as one of its largest employers, the city remains a vibrant and family-friendly area. Forest Grove School District continues to be a top choice for families seeking a strong public education system that emphasizes academic achievement, bilingual education, and career readiness.
