The tax increase won’t go into effect until next year, and the bond spans 20 years. In another year, our economy will be much healthier, and so will our schools if we pass this bond.
Our schools today are outdated and need to be modernized, so they’re safer, securer, and our children have the best learning environment possible. The bond is modest …

If we have learned anything in this community in the last five years, it is that we should be more vigilant in our emergency preparations. The primary feature of the Roseburg Public Schools bond levy is to increase safety and security for our students.

“In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.” — Theodore Roosevelt
