Meeting of the
Warm Springs Search and Rescue
all Volunteer Group
July 16,1990
7:30 PM
at the Community Center Social Hall
The Agenda:
Mutual aide with
Jefferson County Sheriff's office,
Response with
Warm Springs Public Safety Branch,
Tentative Building Acquisition,
On-Going Search and Rescue Activities
for the Confederated Inhcsol Warm
Springs. "CDAs arc skilled caregivers
and educators. I hey have shown
their ability in working w ith children
ages three though f ive years of age
and their families."
The teacher tiaining program
began in September I9X9 and cul
minated in a successful evaluation
by a team composed of the can
didate, the national CDA represent
ative, the local CDA advisor and
the parent community representative.
I n order to determine competence,
each teacher was observed a minimum
of three times working with young
children. The observations included
being videotaped! Each teacher also
completed a portfolio detailing her
teaching experiences and each part
icipated in an in-depth interview.
Each teacher had to demonstrate
knowledge of the 1 3 critical "funct
ional areas" which are the founda
tion for a quality early childhood
education program. Their training
program focused on such thinws as
teaching strategies, observation
skills, how children learn, devclop
mcntallv appropriate learning act
ivities, guidance and discipline, and
classroom management and ar
rangement. " I hese stall members Have shown
thcircommitmcnt to the education
of young children by going through
the CDA credcntialing process,"
said Normandie Phelps, education
coordinator CDA advisor for Early
Childhood Education. "The process
takes a great deal of time and hard
work, and these teachers deserve so
much credit for completing this
program," she adds.
Parents play a very significant
role in the CDA process. They
serve as parentcommunity represent
atives during the assessment to
make sure that the community's
views arc heard concerning the
competence ol each teacher. Roberta
Queahpama, Megan Harding, and
Lorraine Suppah served as parent
community representatives; they were
crilicaflo the success of this program.
I hey spent many hours observing
in classrooms and ensured that
parents shared their views on each
candidate's competence by complet ing
a "parent questionaire."Each parent
community representativealso provided
invaluable information and support
at the final assessment meetings
where the determination of competence
was made and the credential was
awarded. All three parents deserve
the thanks of the whole community
for their efforts.
Vivian Wewa and John Ncttleton
gave new meaning to the words
"helpful" and "supportive" during
this training program. Vivian, head
teacher in the Head Start Day
Care 3s classroom, served as mentor
for both Rebecca and Cinda as
they worked on their CDA credential.
She provided crucial support to
her teachers and to the CDA training
program. John, who was acting
supervisor at the Child Development
Center during Jerry's training, did
everything in his power to support
her CDA efforts. Their contributions
to the success of the CDA training
program are enormous.
I tie next group of teachers will
start their training program this
September. And, next spring, another
group of hard-working teachers
will be ready to receive their CDA
credentials. They will breathe a
big sigh of relief when they are
through- knowing they have done
a good job and are ready for new
challenges with children!
