Fern Ridge District Office



Welcome to the Fern Ridge School District's (FRSD) website. FRSD is a 4-A school district located 12-15 minutes west of Eugene-Springfield, on the western and southern tips of Fern Ridge Lake (map). The school district's size, rural setting, proximity to Eugene-Springfield, Fern Ridge Lake and quick access to the Oregon Coast makes FRSD an attractive place to live and raise children.

FRSD encompasses 214 square miles, serving children from the surrounding communities of Walton, Noti, Veneta and Elmira with a combined population of approximately 9,700. FRSD is comprised of four schools - Veneta Elementary, Elmira Elementary, Fern Ridge Middle School and Elmira High School.  The district also has two charter schools (West Lane Technical Learning Center, Willamette Leadership Academy) as well as other optional educational opportunities.

The Fern Ridge School District invites you to work with us as we develop and maintain positive learning environments that allow for educational experiences "where people grow to become caring, ethical, healthy individuals . . . who can adapt to change, enrich the democratic process and make positive contributions to the community and to a global society."
