The Riverdale School District (51J) is a public school district in Portland, Oregon. It serves students in the Dunthorpe neighborhood of Portland, seven miles south of downtown adjacent to Lake Oswego. It has two schools: Riverdale Grade School for students in K–8, and Riverdale High School for grades 9–12.
History The school district was created in 1888 when residents of the area petitioned to be split off from a larger neighboring district due to the distance children had to travel to school. Initially the district was only for students in kindergarten through eighth grade; the district added a high school in 1996 to comply with legislation that required all school districts in the state offer K–12 education.
