Linn Benton Lincoln ESD

Headquartered at 905 4th Ave SE in Albany, Oregon, Linn Benton Lincoln ESD is an open, non-charter educational service agency that plays a vital regional role in Oregon’s public education system. Situated in a small city community setting within the greater Albany metropolitan area, the agency is structured to support comprehensive educational programming spanning pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade. Rather than operating as a conventional school district, it functions as a centralized service body that collaborates with local public schools to enhance instructional quality, expand student opportunities, and streamline administrative services across the surrounding communities.

Given its unique mandate as a regional service agency, the organization does not maintain traditional school buildings or direct primary student enrollments, focusing instead on delivering specialized infrastructure and programming to constituent districts. To support these regional operations, the agency employs a robust workforce of approximately 368 full-time equivalent staff members. The staffing composition heavily reflects its service-oriented mission, featuring 40 full-time equivalent teachers alongside an expansive team of over 326 support staff professionals dedicated to specialized student care, professional development, and district support. Families, educators, and researchers interested in learning more about the agency's broad network of services can reach out via their main office at (541) 812-2600 or visit their official website at www.lblesd.k12.or.us.
