Staff with the City of Reedsport are warning of bear sightings in that community.

City Recorder Rhonda Bryan said a mother bear with two cubs was spotted in the Bowman Road area. Bryan said other sightings have been close to Lower Umpqua Hospital, on Ranch Road and Ridgeway, and at other locations.

Residents are asked to be “BearWise” by securing garbage and keeping containers indoors until the day of collection, taking down bird feeders during active bear season or hanging them well out of reach, and keeping pet food inside. Doors, windows, and vehicles should be kept locked, so bears do not smell food inside.

Roseburg Schools Superintendent Jared Cordon is recommending that Fir Grove Elementary School be closed at the end of the current school year.

A document titled “Aligning to Thrive” was posted on the district website on Wednesday night. In it, Cordon said after a decade of declining enrollment, the district is facing a growing mismatch between the number of students it serves and the elementary school system that was built to serve them. Cordon said at the same time, aging facilities require increasing investment, operating costs continue to rise, and lower enrollment at some schools is making it more difficult to organize classrooms and staffing in ways that best support students.

The document said if the proposal is approved by the school board, Fir Grove students would remain at their current school for the rest of this school year and then transition to nearby schools starting in the 2027/28 school year. Proposed receiving schools include Eastwood, Hucrest and Fullerton elementary schools.

Roseburg High School volleyball team blocked their way to a three-set win over Grants Pass in a Southern Oregon Conference Hybrid match Tuesday in Roseburg.

"I feel very comfortable with our team right now," Roseburg senior Kaitlynn Younce said. "I have very high hopes for the rest of the season, I honestly expect wins all around."

Set scores were 25-16, 25-12, 25-23, as Grants Pass showed more strength each set but was ultimately unable to capitalize on their efforts. In the third set, each team battled point by point. At 24-23, an short volley ended in Roseburg's favor as Blair Smith smacked the ball right over the net and onto the floor in between Cavemen for the clean sweep.

WINSTON — The Douglas High School boys soccer team fell 10-2 to the Coquille/Myrtle Point team on Tuesday in a Special District 3 game played at Winston Middle School.

"Two-zero up, we're really happy. I've been telling my team, because it's been instilled into me through all the coaches I've ever had, play like it's 0-0, right?" Douglas junior James De Leo said.

"But, you know, we got ahead, got a little cocky, lost pace, just never picked it back up"

Domminnick Fugate and Parker Jackson scored in the first part of the game to kick the Trojans out to a 2-0 lead. But then once the Trojans let in one goal, as De Leo put it, it "started snowballing."
