MISSION: We support student success through equitable and specialized services.
VISION: A region where students, families and educators thrive.
CORE VALUES: At High Desert ESD we put students & families first. We support student success in compassionate, trustworthy, and barrier-free environments. We engage with families, educators, and district partners to make sure that every child receives what they need in order to succeed. We will use evidence to inform our work. We will Connect, we will always act with Integrity, and Equity will guide all of our work.
The High Desert Education Service District (HDESD) is a public K-12 school district in Oregon which provides direct services to students and districts. We also support and link school districts in Central Oregon to state and national education resources. Our programs help districts minimize duplication of services, preserve their local budgets and receive special programs that might otherwise be unavailable to them.
