OCCC launches new ‘grow your own’ teaching degree
program with LCSD and Western Oregon University
To teach is to help build a better
community for future generations. For
too many local students, though, the
cost of the four-year degree necessary to
become a teacher is too great, despite the
attractive wages and benefits packages
available in the profession.
Now, students who aspire to become
teachers right here at home in Lincoln
County have a new pathway to follow to
achieve their dream.
Thanks to a grant from the Meyer
Memorial Trust and through partner-
ships with the Lincoln County School
District, Western Oregon University
and Tillamook Bay Community Col-
lege, Oregon Coast Community College
is launching a new teacher education
program this fall.
The announcement follows the rev-
elation last spring that fall 2018 would
also see the launch of OCCC’s first early
childhood education degree and certifi-
cate programs.
“Ever since I came to Oregon Coast
Community College four years ago,” said
Birgitte Ryslinge, president of OCCC,
“I’ve heard from county residents,
employers and agencies asking for bet-
ter, more affordable and more accessible
teaching and early childhood education
degrees and certificates. I’m so pleased
that, after a great deal of work, we’re
able to announce the upcoming launch
of this program.”

The new program is designed to help

477 Self-Sufficiency
plan open for review
and public comment
The 477 Self-Sufficiency Pro-
gram Plan is open for public com-
ment from June 1 to July 16, 2018.
The plan is available on the Tribal
website (ctsi.nsn.us), lobby of each
area office or by contacting Kurtis
Barker, 477-SSP director.
The plan provides a broad over-
view of how the program will operate
for years 2019-2021.

ers by supporting local students as they
work toward their teaching degrees and
assisting them in student teaching and
eventual full-time job placement here in
Lincoln County.
The goal is to help the school district
recruit and retain teachers who are famil-
iar with and grounded in Lincoln County
and, through targeted outreach to under-
represented populations, help increase the
diversity of teachers in K-12 classrooms
to better reflect the demographics of the
student population.
“Through this program, students will
be able to earn the first two years of a West-
ern Oregon University bachelor’s degree
in education by earning an Associate of
Arts Oregon Transfer Degree (AAOT)
here at OCCC,” said Dan Lara, OCCC’s
dean of academics and workforce.
In the third year of the program, stu-
dents will transition to Western Oregon,
where they will study for an academic
year. In the fourth and final year of the
program, students achieving minimum
performance standards will be placed
into student teaching positions by the
Lincoln County School District while they
continue remaining WOU courses online.
Upon graduation and certification by
the state, program participants will receive
preferential consideration for open teach-
ing positions in the school district.
“By saving on tuition and housing by
earning the first two years of this degree
via the AAOT and by requiring only one
academic year away in Monmouth to
attend WOU, this program slashes the
costs one would traditionally expect for a
General Welfare Exclusion Housing
Rehabilitation Program
Formerly Over-Income Rehabilitation Grant
The Over-Income Rehabilitation Construction program funds over-income families
with a $10,000 grant for construction rehabilitation on the primary residence they own.
The over-income grant is for eligible applicants and is limited to one grant per
person/address/household. If you have already received a General Welfare Exclusion
Housing Rehabilitation Grant, you are not eligible to apply.
If you have received services for the following programs, you are not eligible to
apply for the General Welfare Exclusion Housing Rehabilitation Grant for five years:
Down Payment Assistance, NAHASDA Rehabilitation Program, NAHASDA Elders
Replacement Program, NAHASDA Rehabilitation Program for Elder Tribal Members,
NAHASDA Rehabilitation Program for Disabled Tribal Members, Homeownership
Program/Mutual Help and BIA Self Governance.
Rehabilitation refers to repairs or renovations to the home, but does not include
appliances, saunas, hot tubs, swimming pools, driveways, fences, etc.
Over-income refers to Tribal members whose income exceeds the income limits set
by the Native American Housing Assistance and Self Determination Act (NAHASDA).

degree like this,” Lara said, adding that
some Lincoln County students may be
able to arrange schedules so that they
can continue living and working at home
while commuting to courses at WOU
during that third year.
“And,” he continued, “the automatic
placement into student teaching posi-
tions in the fourth year of the program
means this could be the quickest way for
local residents to launch a brand new,
immensely rewarding and financially
lucrative career. We’re thankful to the
Meyer Memorial Trust for their support
in delivering this innovative new option
for local students.”
The Rural Teacher Education Path-
way is available for high school gradu-
ates of all ages. Additionally, juniors and
seniors in Lincoln County high schools
can enroll via dual credit in core courses,
further accelerating the program.
The Meyer Memorial Trust grant
also funded the two-year early childhood
development degree and a one-year cer-
tificate programs that also launch in fall
2018. Both are designed to provide new
career opportunities to county residents
while also raising the quality and avail-
ability of child care services throughout
the county.
Registration is now open for these
programs. To learn more, schedule an
appointment with an academic advi-
sor. Visit oregoncoastcc.org/advising-
appointments or call 541-867-8501.
The college’s summer hours are 7
a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Thurs-
day, at its Newport and Lincoln City
locations.
