Built in the 1930s, The Siletz School encompassed all grades until about 1984, when the high school students began busing to Toledo High School.
Siletz School offers students the opportunity to learn about the cultural history of their town. The students can attend a mini Pow Wow and participate in Indian educational activities that include drumming, beading, and shawl making. Siletz School students and staff are currently involved in a program called Resolving Conflict Creatively. Six teachers have been trained so far with plans to integrate the valuable communication program into the entire student body.
