Oregon\u2019s rural school districts have experienced teacher shortages, particularly Bilingual and Special Educators. The <\/span>Rural Partnerships Pathways Program (RP3)<\/span><\/i>, as part of Western Oregon University\u2019s Grow-Your-Own Pathways<\/a> Work and the Bilingual Teacher Scholars Program<\/a>, allows the College of Education at WOU to partner with the Cow Creek Band of Umpqua Tribe of Indians and three educational service districts: Douglas, Northwest Regional and Linn Benton Lincoln to\u00a0develop rural educator pathways<\/a> . These pathways create opportunities for rural educators to participate in place-conscious degree completion, licensure and added endorsements programs such as English for Speakers of Other Languages or Special Education. RP3 Project Co-Directors, Dr. Maria Dantas-Whitney and Dr. Kristen L Pratt, are \u201cexcited about the Rural Partnerships Pathways Program which will allow us to build access and equity in our program delivery and curriculum, as well as connect with aspiring diverse educators in rural parts of Oregon and ultimately, we will see the results in PK-12 classrooms for Oregon children and their families.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Progress” _builder_version=”4.8.2″ _module_preset=”default”
