Northwest Regional ESD

Northwest Regional ESD is an active public educational service agency based at 5825 NE Ray Cir in Hillsboro, Oregon. Situated within a midsize city setting in the broader Portland-Vancouver-Hillsboro metropolitan area, this open, non-charter regional organization maintains an educational continuum spanning from pre-kindergarten all the way through 12th grade. Operating one primary school facility, the agency serves as a vital administrative and specialized hub designed to deliver targeted programming and infrastructure support across its regional footprint.

A defining characteristic of Northwest Regional ESD is its extensive workforce, which reflects its specialized operational role within the region's public education ecosystem. The district employs a total capacity of approximately 1,258 full-time equivalent (FTE) staff members, underpinned by roughly 273 FTE teachers, 84 FTE instructional aides, and more than 901 FTE dedicated support personnel. Although standard reporting reflects zero direct district student enrollment—a typical structure for regional service agencies—this substantial workforce enables the organization to effectively deploy specialized instruction, support services, and system-level assistance across all pre-K through 12th-grade levels served.
