Safety and Security

Roseburg Public Schools remains committed to the health, safety and security of our students, staff and community. The district relies on a variety of funding sources to make our schools safer, including state and federal grants, COVID relief funding and budgeting strategies to provide for annual facility operating costs and emergency improvements. Large-scale renovations and new buildings will eventually require support from the greater community via a capital improvement bond.  

Learn about some of our top initiatives for the 2023-2024 school year below.

Community investment

  • An estimated $45.4 million in large-scale facility renovations and repairs to all existing schools will be needed to bring schools up to current health, safety, security and building code standards. These updates include:
    • HVAC additions and repairs for air ventilation/filtering, temperature control
    • Roofing
    • Plumbing and electrical
    • Asbestos removal
    • Fire alarm system to code.
