TitleOEA Continues Push for Resolution of "Highly Qualified" Designation
Body
From: "OEA"

The Oregon Department of Education, TSPC and OEA continue to
work on expanding the definition of highly qualified teachers
contained in the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA)/No
Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act. The U.S. Dept. of Education has
indicated an interest in working with Oregon to review the issues
around middle school, special education and English Language
Learner teachers' licensure requirements as related to ESEA/NCLB.
OEA is advocating strongly for more flexibility in the definitions
and more alternatives for how teachers can meet the requirements.
