addition, a facilitated conversation among
Northeast Portland Schools (including Hollyrood, Fernwood, Laurelhurst, Beaumont Middle School and Alameda Elementary) helped to develop a plan to reassign some of the Rose City Park Elementary attendance area (the area assigned to Grant High, west of 57th Avenue) to elementary, middle or K–8 schools that feed into Grant. This resolution was revised after the School Board's decision to address the longtime split in the Rose City Park students between Madison and Grant high schools. As a direct result of the community conversations and subsequent School Board vote, the Hollyrood building remained open to house the kindergarten, first-grade and second-grade of the newly established Hollyrood-Fernwood K–8, while the upper grades were schooled in the existing Fernwood School. (In September 2009, the second-grade class was moved to the Fernwood building, leaving the kindergarten and first-grade classes as the sole occupants of the Hollyrood building, with grades 2–8 at Fernwood. In 2014, the sole grade level to remain in the Hollyrood building was kindergarten.)

September 2, 2014, the Beverly Cleary School became a three-campus school, utilizing the Rose City Park school building to house first- and third-graders and leaving the Hollyrood building to house only kindergarten students. In Fall 2018, the school reverted to its original two-campus model. The

The
Hollyrood building was constructed in 1958 at a cost of $ 198,000, in a direct response to the growing population of northeast Portland and the limitations of the Fernwood School. Hollyrood was considered at the time to be a temporary name. It was originally referred to as the Fernwood Annex

On May 24, 2007, the School Board passed a resolution by a vote of 4–3 to merge
Hollyrood Elementary School and Fernwood Middle School. The result was a full K–8 program beginning in the 2007–08 school year (with that year's 4th and 5th grade students returning from Laurelhurst Elementary). In
