a tuition-free public neighborhood school in Portland

3400 SE 26th Ave, Portland · Jo Ann Wadkins

Cleveland High School is an IB World School serving both a Mandarin Dual Language Immersion pathway (for students from Woodstock Elementary and Harrison Park Middle School) and a general enrollment population, with all juniors and seniors participating in International Baccalaureate courses as the school's core academic foundation. Every student takes IB English (both years), IB History of the Americas, and IB Biology, with dozens of additional IB electives across disciplines.

Students can pursue either the full IB Diploma or earn individual subject certificates, registering for formal IB assessments that yield college credit while still in high school. The school supports this rigorous framework with an AVID program targeting first-generation college-bound students and a Ninth Grade Academy that clusters freshmen with teaching teams. For academically motivated students ready to engage with internationally-minded coursework and willing to tackle college-level work early, Cleveland offers a comprehensive structure that treats IB not as enrichment but as the default experience.
