Elmira is an unincorporated community in Lane County, Oregon, United States. It is located west of Eugene and north of Veneta and Oregon Route 126, near the Long Tom River and Fern Ridge Reservoir. The community was named after Elmira, California, after previously having the name "Duckworth". A local business owner persuaded postal authorities to rename the community "Elmira" in 1884.In approximately 1905, Elmira Road and the surrounding area was homesteaded by Henry and Celia Faulhaber along with their children Leon, Neil and Mildred. Sometime between 1905 and 1916 Elmira Road was donated back to the county by Henry Faulhaber and later renamed Faulhaber Road.

Elmira High School
Elmira High School

Elmira High School (often abbreviated as EHS) is a public high school in Elmira, Oregon, United States, located approximately 15 miles from Eugene, Oregon. It is one of the four schools of the Fern Ridge School District and provides an education of grades 9-12 for the city of Veneta, as well as for the towns of Elmira, Noti and Walton. Total enrollment numbers range from 350 to 450 students with a roughly even gender ratio. They operate on a seven period schedule over the course of two semesters, beginning in early September and ending in early June. EHS has four main buildings. In the lower left corner of the school consists of the main office and entrance, the theatre, library and the main studio for the school's radio station KOCF 92.7 FM, hosted by Stuart "Stu" Burgess. This building also contains the main hallways for the sophomore, junior and senior classes, as well as the counseling and learning centers. There is also an outdoor area outside of the building for social gatherings between students during passing periods and lunch. In the lower right corner is where the main gym and auxiliary gym are situated, as well as the freshman hallway and the Home Ec classroom. The auxiliary gym used to be the school's front entrance, however due to the athletics department asking for more practicing space and extracurricular opportunities, the auxiliary gym was built to satisfy those needs, and the school went for a more interior focused entrance. In the upper left corner is the Cafeteria, and in the upper right corner is the Band/Choir room, the weight room and workshops for students interested in welding, carpentry, woodworking and more.
