How are Portland's schools?

[oneven]

It’s important for me to relocate my family to a new home where my children can get a good primary education. How are Portland’s primary and secondary schools?

Not that great, honestly. 6/10 overall, though individual schools can be better than others (http://www.greatschools.org/oregon/portland/). In general, schools in Oregon can be quite hit or miss. You will likely find better schools in some of Portland's suburbs, such as Beaverton and Oregon City. The plus side to this is that the housing can be cheaper in those areas as well.

Please consider moving somewhere else. Portland is not a very family friendly town. Rent and housing are astronomical. The schools are suffering. Oregon has a very low graduation rate. Depending on where you can afford to live the schools are okay. Nicer and more expensive neighborhoods will have good schools. Schools on the East side of Portland are too be avoided.
