Community Description:	Introduction Introduction The Northwest Regional ESD is the largest and most diverse education service district in the state. Two of Oregon’s largest school districts—Beaverton and Hillsboro—reside in the urban parts of Washington County while many smaller, more rural districts reside along the Columbia River, Coast Range Mountains, and Pacific Ocean. This diversity in size, landscape, and geography makes the region one of the most attractive spots in Oregon and an area where supplemental services provided by NWRESD are in great demand by schools large and small. Service Area The Northwest Regional ESD’s service area includes more than 170 public schools in Clatsop, Columbia, Tillamook, and Washington counties — spanning approximately 3,500 square miles across the northwest corner of Oregon. The Regional Office is located in Hillsboro, with additional service centers located in Astoria, St. Helens, and Tillamook.
