Primary and Secondary EducationOregon, United States51-200 Employees

We proudly serve 13 component school districts in Douglas County, Oregon, while extending select services to Jackson, Klamath, and Lake Counties.

At the heart of our mission is a commitment to the belief that everyone belongs. This foundation empowers us to build a stronger, innovative organization that effectively serves the community. With a team of more than 300 full- and part-time professionals—including administrative, licensed, contracted, and classified staff—we provide vital services that enhance student achievement for all children.

Our comprehensive services include special education, nursing, speech and behavioral support, early learning programs, educational services, technology services, and administrative support.

Douglas ESD operates under the guidance of a seven-member Board of Directors, elected by regional citizens for four-year terms. Five board members represent geographical zones, while two are elected at-large throughout the county.

We are accountable to the Douglas ESD Board, the public, component school districts, and the State Board of Education. Collaboration is a key value—component districts actively participate in shaping the services and programs we offer. Additionally, we partner with area-wide organizations to further support youth and families.

Our component districts vary widely in size, ranging from 200 to nearly 6,000 students, reflecting the communities we serve.
