I used to get 0.8-2.5 GPAs during freshman yr in my other school district. The teachers wouldn't talk to me. I struggle with asking for help. When I did, I felt like I was dumb for needing help. Not many clubs.

But now I'm here, and finished my Junior year with a GPA of 3.5! I actually went to 2 schools in this district so I know more about it from two point of views. They have amazing clubs, basically a club for everyone. The teachers are amazing! They speak to you, make sure you are doing your best to learn. The counselors meet with students every once in awhile which is great for me. I always need someone to help me back on track and get me ready for graduation. Once in awhile they do assemblies, and they always make sure to have students enjoy it. And next year they are inserting Teacher Collaboration. Which is where teachers get together to explain how to make their lessons and classes better for students.

This district is top notch. Excited to finish my senior year here!

This upcoming fall will mark my 12th year in the Beaverton School District community. I have stayed with this District for so long for many different reasons. The first reason is that they adequately prepare all of their students to excel now and in the future. Furthermore, the district is always bringing about new ways to increase learning within their schools. They continue to create a safe and welcoming learning space for everybody. This school district is very much focused on the achievement of students, and they recognize the different types of performance. I have enjoyed my experience here because they provided rigor and many different avenues of learning for me. However, I have always wanted to see more diversity within the district. I am happy to say that the diversity has increased in recent years, thanks to new boundary changes. I know that Beaverton School District will continue to grow to even greater heights, and for this reason, I recommend it proudly.
The proficiency system really sucks and its harder for students with special needs to be able to do well in school. A lot of their schools are falling apart and BSD tends to waste it's money on some of the most ridiculous things. As far as culture goes it really depends on which school you attend (stay away from the super rich people schools like Nancy Ryles or Scholls Heights). If you considering moving to Beaverton, when it comes to picking a school don't look at things like test scores look at things like class sizes and community unless you want your child to not fit in at all.
