Tualatin Academy

Congregational minister Harvey L. Clark started a missionary school in 1841 just north of East Tualatin Plains, now Hillsboro.

[1] The school was soon moved to West Tualatin Plains (now Forest Grove) where in 1847 Clark was joined by Tabitha Moffatt Brown, the Mother of Oregon.

[1] Founding trustees of the school included Clark, P. H. Hatch, George H. Atkinson, James M. Moore, and Osborne Russell among others.

[7] Sitting atop its hipped roof is an octagonal shaped louvered belfry, similar to one that was on the Oregon Institute building.

[5] Colonial Revival in style,[4] the structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places as Tualatin Academy in 1974.
