Portland School District 1J

Oregon · runs kindergarten through grade 12

NCES ID 4110040 · pps.net · (503) 916-2000

Portland School District 1J covers 253,369 of the homes in 34 ZIP Code areas, but its smallest measured presence is a different thing entirely: in ZIP Code area 97034 it holds 52 of 9,479 homes, or 0.5% of them. An address in that ZIP Code is almost certainly not in this district, and a lookup that names the district without the share says the opposite. Below the half-percent line this page draws it reaches 4 further ZIP Code areas, the least of them no homes at all in 97056.

A few homes at the edge of someone else's ZIP Code

At 1,871 homes to the square mile this is city territory, and district lines in a city follow streets. Portland School District 1J covers 135 square miles in all — small enough that a single ZIP Code area can hold most of it, and several ZIP Codes can cut across it.

The ZIP Code areas it reaches

Have a street address?

A ZIP Code names every district that can serve the area; a street address settles which one serves a home. The Census Bureau geocoder takes an exact address and returns its school districts from the current boundary files, free and with no account.

Where this district sits

What to do next

Ask the district office to confirm your street address: look on its site for a school locator, a find my school tool or an attendance zone map, or call the office.

A ZIP Code is a set of mail delivery routes, not a boundary: in 12 of the 34 ZIP Code areas Portland School District 1J reaches, at least one other district holds a real share of the homes as well, and the line between them runs along streets. Only the district can say which side of that line an address is on.

District websites and phone numbers here come from the NCES Common Core of Data directory, 2024-25 school year, filed under the same district ID as the Census boundary files. Where it lists no usable website, none is printed rather than guessed.

If a house purchase depends on the answer, ask the district itself for written confirmation of that exact address. A listing is not a district record, and neither is this page.

Where these numbers come from

The homes were counted in the 2020 Census and the district lines are the 2026 boundary file, so a fast-growing area may have changed since; ZIP Codes here are the Census Bureau's ZIP Code Tabulation Areas; a share is a share of homes, not the chance that one address is in a district; and a district is not a school attendance zone. Every source, file and caveat is on the method page.
