Sherwood School District (SSD) serves the southeastern corner of Washington County, providing high-quality education to a growing student population of over 5,000 students. The district operates four elementary schools, two middle schools, and one high school, offering comprehensive academic programs and extracurricular opportunities. With steady population growth in the area, SSD continues to prioritize school expansion and student support to accommodate its increasing enrollment.

Sherwood schools consistently receive high ratings for academic performance, with previous state rankings at Level 4 and Level 5 on Oregon’s 1-5 scale. The district is committed to excellence in education, offering strong STEM initiatives, advanced placement (AP) courses, career and technical education (CTE), and arts programs to ensure students are prepared for college and future careers.

Located 17 miles from downtown Portland, Sherwood is a thriving community in the Tualatin Valley, known for its small-town charm, family-friendly atmosphere, and easy access to urban opportunities. First incorporated in 1893, Sherwood has grown to over 18,000 residents, making it an increasingly desirable place to live. With a strong academic reputation, community engagement, and a focus on student success, Sherwood School District remains a top choice for families moving to the Portland metro area.
