ICCL connection meetings<\/strong>: Eric and I will have met with each high school’s ICCL team prior to spring break. It has been helpful for us to hear what teachers want to share with us without any specific topics identified by us. As we communicated previously, our plan is to pull together the themes we learn from each session and develop some next steps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I would like to begin scheduling our next set of meetings with your ICCL team<\/strong>. More information to come about the structure, but please reach out to get those scheduled. Our preference is to meet with every ICCL team by mid April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AP training requests reminder: <\/strong>AP training through the college board is an outstanding professional development opportunity for our AP teachers.\u00a0 We strongly encourage teachers to be trained in AP prior to teaching an AP course.\u00a0 We also support sending AP teachers to be trained when there is an AP course redesign or if an AP teacher is requesting additional training to improve their practice (the former is prioritized over the latter).\u00a0\u00a0Linda Adams is working to bring a trainer for AP Pre Calc to Bend this summer because we understand there are several math teachers asking for this training. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please add all of your AP requests to\u00a0this document\u00a0<\/a>by April 1.\u00a0<\/strong> We will review the sheet and prioritize needs after that date. Please let KT know if you have questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Stephen and Linda:<\/strong> We have been partnering with COCC to provide training for math teachers interested in articulating MTH 111\/112 or 105. \u00a0We’ve been working to expand options for our teachers who may not qualify with their current credentials. \u00a0This training would allow them to articulate with COCC if interested. \u00a0 Please share this link: Math Sponsored Dual Credit Survey<\/a> from COCC with your teachers to inform interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    New Oregon TAG Rules from Kelle Hildebrandt<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 In January 2022, the Oregon State Board of Education adopted new TAG identification rules that are intended to uproot a system of prescribed inequitable outcomes. These newly designed and adopted rules have created new learning curves for districts and educators throughout Oregon. I have taken on some leadership to help evaluate our current TAG systems in BLS and assimilate these new rules. We have gathered a TAG advisory team that is currently working on a Core Beliefs document and learning about the new rules. Next year, the team will recommend changes to our assessment, identification, and instructional services. For this year, our systems will look the same as in previous school years. Please reach out to Kelle for any TAG questions or support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
