Like many towns in the Willamette Valley, Tigard was originally settled by several families, the most noteworthy of which was the Tigard family, headed by Wilson M. Tigard. Arriving in the area known as "East Butte" in 1852, the family settled and became involved in organizing and building the East Butte School, a general store (which starting in 1886 housed the area's post office) and a meeting hall, and renamed East Butte to "Tigardville". The Evangelical organization built the Emanuel Evangelical Church at the foot of Bull Mountain, south of the Tigard store in 1886. A blacksmith shop was opened in the 1890s by John Gaarde across from the Tigard Store, and in 1896 a new E. Butte school was opened to handle the growth the community was experiencing from an incoming wave of German settlers.

The town began to take off at the beginning of the 20th century and many businesses, homes, and streets were built about this time. Oak Grove owes much of its initial growth to the fact that a street car line went down the middle of the town and the Oregon Trail finished a few miles away in Oregon City. Some of the campfire burn from the wagon trains are still visible on the trees. The Street car line went from Portland to Oregon City but closed in the 1950s. Some of the tracks used to be visible on Arista Drive, but they are still visible on a nature trail and a pillar from an old stop is visible outside the current Oak Grove School. Oak Grove School was originally built in 1907 but it burned down about 20 years later. A school was erected in the 1930s with an addition in the 1960s. In the sixties, another school was built was known as North Oak Grove. Oak Grove school was closed in 1999 and all the students shifted to North Oak Grove which was thereafter known as Oak Grove.
