Questions about Portland area schools come up a lot when I’m working with buyers. Either they are planning for their future family or have children nearing school age and want their home purchase to be near their child’s new school. Years ago there were few if any good resources on all the different schools and how they compare to one another, but now there are a few out there. One of these is Trulia. They provide info on all the schools (private and public) and include ratings provided by parents, former students, teachers etc. You also get to see things like test score results, details on additional programs the school may offer and children per classroom averages to name a few. So check it out and let me know what you think!
