ENROLLMENT PROCESS AND ONLINE REGISTRATION
Hello Parents, Here is a link to our current Enrollment steps and Online Registration
Under normal circumstances, you would begin the enrollment process by visiting your “home school” during office hours.

Once the enrollment process is completed, your student(s) will be able to participate in the district's distance learning model of instruction.
If you are unable to complete the online enrollment please download and complete the paper Enrollment form — English Enrollment Form / Spanish Enrollment Form. Mail the completed paper form to 7050 NE Birch St, Hillsboro, OR 97124. If you have any questions please email our school's secretary Lucy Smith at smithlu@hsd.k12.or.us

Principal's Message

Dear Orenco Families,
Being the principal of Orenco Elementary School is a tremendous honor and is the best job in the world. Each day I am thrilled to work with such a caring and dedicated staff and families. I am excited to bring my skills as an educational leader to your son’s/daughter’s school and to collaborate with you as a partner in education to ensure your child’s success.
Along with staff, I will work hard to continue the legacy of success established at Orenco by building strong relationships with parents, students, staff, and community partners. We will focus on character education initiatives through Positive Behavior Intervention Support, Capturing Kids Hearts, fostering a nurturing safe environment for children, use of data to inform instruction, consistent implementation of newly adopted English Language Arts to increase students’ achievement, by providing exciting and challenging enrichment opportunities for all students.
The diverse student population at Orenco Elementary School provides everyone with an awareness and appreciation for all cultures. The Orenco staff are passionate, dedicated educators who set high standards of achievement so our young scholars can be successful. We are determined to drive rigorous engagement in literacy, writing, math, and science, and provide individualized opportunities for student growth. To ensure this happens, we collaborate regularly around student learning, challenge one another, and seek to continuously improve in teaching and learning. We set high expectations for ourselves and our young scholars, and work together in the process of achieving those expectations.
Thank you for trusting us with the education and caring development of your child. If you have questions or concerns that arise at any time, please do not hesitate to give your child’s teacher or me a call. Family support is a critical link to student achievement. We want to hear from you!
In partnership,
Allison Combs
