Title: TSPC Grants One-Year Extension on All Initial Licenses Acquired
Body: From: "OEA"
On Friday, October 10 the Teacher Standards and Practices Commission
(TSPC) passed a temporary rule granting an automatic one-year
extension to all educators who hold any type of Initial License
as of October 10, 2003. This includes teachers, administrators,
school counselors and school psychologists. Educators who are
in the process of renewing over the next year will receive a
four-year length of term on their license. Educators who have
already renewed once will receive a one-year extension without
charge from the Commission. Educators who receive an initial
license after October 10, 2003 will receive their license under
current rules (good for 3 years and renewable once).
The purpose of the extension is to allow the Commission
to analyze all the issues around the requirements for the Continuing
License. The Commissioners held small group discussions on issues
such as the license timelines, the master's degree requirement,
the advanced competency requirement, institutional capacity,
and complications caused by ESEA/NCLB. The Commission will work
with stakeholders such as OEA and COSA in the coming months to
develop solutions to the multitude of problems.
More information about this change is posted at
www.oregoned.org/teaching_and_learning/index.htm.
OEA will be actively advocating for members in the coming months.
Please help in that effort by letting us know what your needs
are for continuing education, and what you believe are appropriate
requirements for a "second tier" license.
Go to www.oregoned.org/teaching_and_learning/cont_lic_form.htm
to fill out and submit a feedback form on this topic.

Title: OEA 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.

Title: Will Federal Education Funding Leave Children Behind
Body: From: "OEA"
The National Education Association reports that U.S. House and
Senate negotiations continue on the overdue appropriations bill
that determines federal education funding for fiscal year 2004
amidst growing frustration.
Neither the House nor the Senate bill provides the funding
promised in the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA),
now renamed the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB). And,
only the Senate bill, but not the House bill, would put special
education on the path to fully funding the commitment Congress
made more than 26 years ago when the Individuals with Disabilities
in Education Act (IDEA) was enacted.
Urge Congress to pay the bill and provide the increased
funding necessary for both general and special education students
to meet the new and higher standards. Go to NEA's online legislative
action center at http://capwiz.com/nea/issues/alert/?alertid=342051
to send a message today.
