Phoenix Charter School of Roseburg has announced that it is closed on Friday, due to increased illness and a shortage of staff.

In a social media post, Principal Corrie Bernard said the Valentines Dance will be rescheduled for next Friday, February 21st from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. A field trip scheduled by one class for Friday will be rescheduled, with the date yet to be determined. The school will remain closed on Monday due to the President’s Day holiday.
