Back to School 2026.
With summer winding down, Tualatin families are preparing for the 2026-2027 school year. From Tualatin High School's Back to School Night to the first day of classes, here is your complete guide to the new school year.
The familiar back-to-school energy is building in Tualatin. School supply lists are circulating, buses are being prepped, and families are squeezing out the last days of summer before the structure of the academic year returns. The Tigard-Tualatin School District (TTSD) kicks off the 2026-2027 school year in just under two weeks, and there is plenty for families to plan for.
For families considering a move to Tualatin, the quality of local schools is often the deciding factor. The property at 22379 SW 107th Ave sits in the attendance area for three excellent schools: Edward Byrom Elementary, Hazelbrook Middle School, and Tualatin High School, all part of one of Oregon's highest-performing districts.
