Office of School Facilities

Welcome!

The Office of School Facilities has the overall goal of providing healthy, safe, and warm facilities for all children attending Oregon’s public schools. The Office meets this goal through administering a variety of grants and programs for school districts. The grants and programs administered by the Office help districts assess the condition of their buildings, determine how their buildings will help meet their educational goals in the future, and provide incentives for local communities to invest in their school facilities. Additionally, the Office collects data on school buildings across the state and helps districts communicate how they are addressing potential environmental hazards in their facilities.
