Woodburn was founded by nurseryman Jesse Settlemier in 1863, and his partnership with the Oregon & California railroad brought the first boom to the area. His 5,000 square foot, 14-room Victorian home thrives today as Woodburn’s centerpiece.

The Woodburn School District is a multicultural delight with nearly 75 percent of students of Hispanic or Russian descent. This mix of three cultures, evident in language, food, religion, music, and dress is leveraged by innovative programs to prepare students for a multi-lingual, multi-cultural world. The District has divided the high school into four smaller schools for more personal involvement, and offers the prestigious International Baccalaureate program.
