Working Together To Nurture A
Love Of Learning
Humbolt Elementary
School is a kindergarten through 5th grade public school in Canyon City,
Oregon. We enroll approximately 255 students. Our students
reside in the communities of John Day, Mt. Vernon, Canyon City and rural
Grant County. Our campus is nestled in pine trees on the edge of
town. Deer and quail are frequent guests on our playground.
Our
mission is to provide a quality education to each child who enters our
doors. This includes developing the academic, physical, and social
skills of each individual student to the highest possible degree. We
believe education is a partnership and a shared responsibility between
students, staff, family, and community.
