Tillamook School District No 9

What Tillamook School District No 9 does

Tillamook School District #9 is a public K-12 school district chartered under Oregon state law and headquartered at 2510 1st Street, Tillamook, Oregon. Founded in 1912, the district serves students residing within its territorial boundaries through eight school sites — Tillamook High School, Tillamook Junior High, South Prairie Elementary, Liberty Elementary, East Elementary, Wilson River, Trask River, and the Tillamook Vocational Center — supplemented by the Tillamook Virtual Academy for remote learners. East Elementary alone serves approximately 450 students, making it the second-largest school in Tillamook County. The district operates as a governmental entity funded by local property taxes (current rate of $0.69 per $1,000 of assessed value), Oregon state education funds, and federal grants (Title I, Title III, Title X, IDEA, SIA), with no tuition charged to district residents.

The district's technology stack is a conventional K-12 ed-tech portfolio: Canvas as the district-wide learning management system, Google Workspace for collaboration, SchoolBlocks for the public website, Clever for single sign-on, and ParentVue (Cascade Technology) for the student information system. Curriculum is delivered through integrated content platforms — Benchmark Literacy, Eureka Math, Amplify Science, and HMH Collections — with assessment aligned to Oregon state standards (OSAS/SBA). The Professional Learning Communities (PLC) framework, built on three big ideas and four key questions, structures educator collaboration and data review. Specialized programming includes Talented & Gifted (TAG), English Language Learner and dual language immersion, McKinney-Vento homeless education support, special education (IDEA/ADA), natural resources curriculum, and career and technical education pathways. Food service is outsourced to Chartwells with Nutrislice and MyMealTime integration; transportation operates district-wide under a Transportation/Maintenance Supervisor.

The district is governed by an elected school board and has filed Measure 29-182 for the May 2025 ballot, seeking a bond extension of up to $25.35 million for facility and safety improvements, with a contingent $6 million match from the Oregon School Capital Improvement Match program. As a governmental entity, Tillamook School District #9 is not investor-owned, has no parent company or subsidiaries, and does not have publicly traded shares; its "go-to-market" is enrollment of resident students and voter approval for capital funding, with no pricing model in the commercial sense.
