InterMountain ESD

Located at 2001 SW Nye Ave in Pendleton, Oregon, InterMountain Educational Service District (ESD) serves as an essential public service agency within the Hermiston-Pendleton regional area. Situated in a distant town community setting, this active, non-charter regional organization supports an expansive educational scope, providing programs and infrastructure that encompass pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. Operating one primary educational facility alongside its broad administrative framework, InterMountain ESD plays a crucial role in delivering specialized services, curriculum coordination, and regional support to enhance student learning across Eastern Oregon.

The district's organizational structure highlights a unique operational model designed for wide-reaching impact rather than direct neighborhood enrollment. InterMountain ESD relies on a comprehensive workforce of over 520 full-time equivalent personnel, including roughly 52 full-time teachers and nearly 24 instructional aides dedicated to specialized learning environments. Reflecting its primary mandate as a regional service provider, the overwhelming majority of its team consists of more than 445 dedicated support staff who deliver technical expertise, administrative leadership, and specialized student services across component districts.
