In the past two community
surveys, Well Maintained Buildings & Grounds has been in the top five
strengths of our district. We take great
pride in creating a space, which makes learning exciting and fun as well as a
place where the community can truly enjoy the talent of our amazing students.
Likewise, we transport
over 2,000 students and provide over 2,500 meals to our students daily and do
so with excellence; a mission for which we will not be deterred.
While we take the daily
cleaning and maintenance of our facilities seriously, we, like our students,
are continually learning and implementing new technology to become more
efficient and cost effective. Among all
of the automation and LED advancements, OCS is a pioneer in alternative
energies. Oregon City Schools is
progressive when it comes to working with alternative energies. With
combined wind power of 1.1 megawatts produced by three wind turbines, the
district was already leading the nation in energy production but add to that
total 450 kilowatts of solar (162 kWh at Jerusalem and 288 kWh at Starr) and
Oregon truly is a trail blazer in alternative electricity produced and
consumed.
