Troutdale/Corbett/Sandy? (Portland: homes, high schools, news)

[movingnortheast]

Hi,

We are looking into moving NE Portland Metro. Can anyone tell me about Troutdale/Corbett/Sandy? I need to know about Jr. Highs and High Schools, Crime and gangs.

Thanks!

I live in the Sandy Area. It's a great place to live, but it's growing fast, so it's an expensive place to live.
I homeschool, but some of my friends who do send their children to school here...really like the schools.
Small and not overly packed with kids.
Not sure about the Troutdale school district.
The crime in Sandy is pretty mild. Typical teenage mischeif, but not as bad as troutdale.
Troutdale seems to be always in the evening news with some sort of crime going on. More gangs...Maybe because it's closer to Portland?
Anyway...good luck.
