Fifteen miles southwest of Salem, Monmouth is a charming community that blurs the line between the suburbs and the countryside. As the home of Western Oregon University, the city hosts a large number of college students as well as faculty and staff for one of the state’s premiere institutions of higher learning. A cluster of unique restaurants sits near campus at the corner of Main and Pacific, with a larger shopping, dining, and nightlife district just a few minutes east in the neighboring town of Independence. Monmouth holds the unique historical distinction of being the last dry town on the west coast before alcohol sales were legalized in 2002.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
