This position will be posted <strong>internally<\/strong> and closes next Thursday.\u00a0 We are looking for a current classroom HS teacher <em>(of any endorsement area)<\/em>  who regularly implements these practices in their own classroom, has an interest in designing and leading this training and who is willing to coach side by side with high school teachers new to our district.   In addition to this release period, these teachers will be out of their classrooms additional days to coach teachers who have been in our district for one or two years.   Dean Richards will be working directly with this individual and the MS disciplinary literacy coach to plan this training and develop a coaching plan.  <strong>We will likely interview for this position on June 18.  Please share this information with your teachers so they are aware of this opportunity.  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Jon would like you to share this information with your teachers regarding the PASS program<\/strong>:  The original PASS MOU between BEA and Bend-LaPine Schools was not extended.\u00a0 We have a new PASS MOU that outlines a three-year transition for employees on the PASS salary schedule back to the traditional salary schedule.\u00a0 We will be working with individual employees on how they will transition back to the traditional salary.\u00a0 Some employees will transition back immediately and some will continue for the next two to three years.\u00a0 All employees will be transitioned back to the traditional salary and the PASS salary will not exist as of  January 1<sup>st<\/sup>, 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We will continue to keep the mentorship program and will add the literacy training, which will both be mandatory for all first and second year teachers. We will also continue to provide the PASS classes that help support teachers in the first few years of the profession.\u00a0 The difference is that the classes will be optional.<em> Note: While optional, successful completion of the classes will be required to complete the district\u2019s Advanced  Professional Development Program. This is one avenue for a  teacher to qualify for a professional teaching license. <\/em>We will also open up the classes for other district employees to attend.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All new teachers hired for this year will be placed on the traditional salary schedule.\u00a0  Teachers in the first two years will be given a mentor with the expectation of also completing the induction and literacy training. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We will schedule an informational meeting for the employees on PASS Monday, June 10th at  4pm.\u00a0 We will also be setting up individual meetings with any interested teachers. If you have questions, please call Jon.
