We’re Here to Help

We work with you to assess your needs and to develop a plan for high school completion that works for you. The first step is to re-enroll – and we’re here to support you every step of the way!

How to Enroll

Step One

If you’re 21 years old or under, the first step to enrolling in any educational option is to check the district your address is located in.

Map of school districts we cover (also listed on this page)

How To: Click on the “Near Me” location button on the top left of the above link and enter your address. Your school district will display at the top of the resulting pop-up.

Step Two

Next, enroll in the district your address is located in. Even if you don’t want to attend your neighborhood school, you need to be enrolled before you can be reassigned to alternate education options.

If you need help, you can give us a call at 503-389-3398!

There are many pathways to education – best way to explore all your options is to reach out to the team at East County Bridges!
