I graduated from Bandon school district. My mom did, her mom did. I am a 5th generation Bandonian…read more The school isn't quite like any other school I have had dealing with. The staff are hugely into the students and from what I can see in academics, they are excelling. Most districts in our county do not have the TOSA ( Teacher On Special Assignment ) to help guide the young adults into their step into adulthood. The one in charge for Bandon is phenomenal. If you really want to know how Bandon schools are, stop a student and ask. Most of them will tell you Bandon is trying harder than most to make school a pleasurable learning base, not just instilling knowledge, but giving a child direction and purpose..... most of the staff from what I have seen would walk through fire for your child. What you have heard about Bandon Schools have been all a part of small town gossip, some of it true and some of it purely said with malicious intent.... School District 54 recieves an A in my book.... Now, go ask a student... They will tell you, TIGER PRIDE is a real disease and when you catch it, your STRIPES WILL RUN DEEP.

While I have many beloved teacher friends, have enjoyed fund raising, and working with coaches,…read moreetc., I'm still disappointed in our local school system. Beyond that... I'm disappointed in the turns our educational system has been taking for almost 40 years! It is my opinion that the Bay Area of Oregon would have FAR less difficulty attracting decent doctors and businesses if we had even SOME schools not considered "at risk". Ask around and see how many docs out of the area would be enticed by a title 1 funded school for THEIR children. Considering the limitations in options for education around here... it's plain to see why people are seemingly far more anxious to leave than to relocate here. Less administration and more good teachers. I was outraged after a lengthy exchange with our former Superintendent. Could not believe his compensation package and perks... in a district so broke. I say start the cutting from the top down, and give children a chance at a decent education. Keep our good and dedicated teachers happy. Children need them, and just ONE can totally impact a child's life forever. I know this because one journalism teacher from what seems like a hundred years ago changed my life course. She cared... and apparently was well cared for by her district. It takes money, and some common sense. We've breezed through money, but at times... decisions seem painfully lacking common sense. And then... tax payers get to anti up for those choices. Where are the children in all these politics? Rearranging locations AGAIN so they can be jammed in even larger classrooms.
