Oregon honors first Education Support Professional of the Year, Paula Steinweg
Paula Steinweg, a member of the
Oregon School Employees Asso-
ciation (OSEA) Chapter 145 in
Jewell, Oregon, has been named
Oregon’s “Education Support
Professional of the Year.” She is
the first recipient of the new
award, the result of an OSEA-
backed bill passed by the Oregon
Legislature in 2019.
As the recipient of the award,
Steinweg will receive $5,000 and
an award plaque. A matching
plaque and banner were pre-
sented to the school to mark her
achievements and impact on the
community.
For over 20 years, Steinweg
has served in a variety of roles at
Jewell School District, including
as a bus driver, education assis-
tant and school librarian.
Steinweg initiated and coordi-
nates a bi-annual trip to Washing-
ton, D.C., for middle school stu-
dents. She facilitates every detail
of the trip from curriculum and
travel plans to fundraising, ensur-
ing all students have the opportu-
nity to experience culture and his-
tory beyond the Jewell com-
munity.
Last spring, as the Jewell
School District responded to the
COVID-19 pandemic, Steinweg
stepped in to deliver food and
school work packets to students
at home. At every stop, she
checked in with the family and
student, asking about their emo-
tional, academic and logistical
needs. Families came to depend
on her visits.
“What an exciting and incred-
ible honor to have our state rec-
ognize—for the first time ever—
the hard work and commitment
of an OSEA member,” said
OSEA President Lisa Gourley.
“Paula Steinweg is a rock star!
I’m humbled by her dedication
and commitment to her students
and community. She has created
a life exemplary of this honor.”
Oregon’s Education Support
Professional of the Year Program
was passed by the Oregon Legis-
lature in May 2019. The bill di-
rects the Oregon Department of
Education and Oregon State Lot-
tery to design and implement the
program to honor an Oregon ed-
ucation support professional
(ESP) serving students in any
grade from pre-kindergarten
through grade 12.
ESPs work with teachers and
administrators to perform a vari-
ety of jobs promoting quality ed-
ucation, fostering positive learn-
ing environments, offering
nutritious meals, providing reli-
able transportation, maintaining
safe and clean schools for all stu-
dents, and much more.
Eligible nominees for the 2021
award were evaluated through a
Blue Ribbon Panel facilitated by
Oregon Department of Eduction.
Nominations for 2022 are
open now through early Janu-
ary. To nominate an outstanding
education support worker, go to
oregonteacheroftheyear.org/
nominate-esp. The 2022 winner
will be announced via a surprise
event in the Spring of 2022.
