Healthy Student Boundaries

Salem-Keizer Public Schools has adopted a radon plan as required by ORS 332.341-345 and all facilities are tested for radon using Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) protocols. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can cause lung cancer. You can’t see or smell radon. Testing is the only way to know your level of exposure. For more information, visit the EPA site on radon.

Please note, locations marked with an * are buildings no longer operated by Salem-Keizer Public Schools. 

All school districts, education service districts, and public charter schools are required to test for and eliminate exposure to elevated levels of lead in water used for Drinking and Food Preparation through either remediation or eliminating access, according to OAR 333-061-0400 and OAR 581-022-2223.

Salem Keizer Public Schools (SKPS) has adopted a plan for testing all schools, childcare facilities and administrative buildings (owned or leased) for lead. The action level for lead in drinking water is the concentration of lead in water that triggers corrective action by the school district. The action level for lead is 15 parts per billion (ppb). SKPS will test all owned and leased buildings for lead on a six-year cycle.
