General Information

Green Mountain is a K-8 one-school district situated about one mile from the North Fork of the Lewis River in the northernmost part of Clark County Washington. Its small size, dedicated staff and remote location make for a truly remarkable learning environment. The school is situated “in the tall pines and spruce” literally in the highlands approaching Mt. St. Helens. All of that has contributed to making Green Mountain School officially a “School of Distinction” in Washington. Over the last six years it has been in the top five percent of the 2,500 schools in Washington in overall achievement on the WASL in math and Reading.

Population: The district serves more than 120 students.

Mission: Green Mountain School District is committed to providing students with a quality, challenging, flexible educational program that will equip them for their future emphasizing the core values of honesty, responsibility, courage, teamwork and grace. Green Mountain strives to provide these programs and impart these values in a safe and secure environment through caring educators and staff in partnership with the community, school board, and administration.
