Claims such as duplication of services, w asteful spending, and entrepreneurial program s have called for detailed audits of the State’s ESDs and their role in O reg o n ’s K-12 education. If the State is looking for a model ESD program, they should look no further than our own U m atilia- Morrow ESD. Serving our bi county region, the UMESD plays a vital role in our re g io n ’s schools. An upcoming example of their crucial function can be witnessed during the week of June 12 as they sponsor the Is' Annual Eastern Oregon Institute West at Hermiston High School. In a tim e when financial shortfalls have taken their toll on public schools it becomes increasingly difficult for districts to afford first-rate professional development for their staff. In an attempt to bring high-quality, cost effective, and job embedded staff developm ent o p p o rtu n ities to their em ployees, H erm iston, M orrow County, and the Umatilla-Morrow ESD have pooled their resources and talents to offer a truly unique staff developm ent opportunity. During the week of June 12 an expected 200 certified and classified staff from Hermiston, Morrow County and other regional schools will gather at Hermiston High School to take part in the 1st Annual Eastern O regon Institute West. W hat began as a concept in a late fall curriculum m eeting in Hermiston. quickly spiraled and grew into a top-notch, high quality opportunity for staff. Morrow County and the ESD quickly jo in ed the planning team and in a few short months, the blueprint for the program had been created. Heather Henslee. Umatilla- M orrow ESD D irector of Instructional Services, seeing the potential o f such a powerful event, offered the E S D ’s assistance from inception to event-day coordination. ESD instructional staff, Robert Valiant and Nicole Nokes, continue to be instrumental in the organization, publicity, and coordination o f services. Assistant Superintendent of M orrow C ounty School District, “this event is truly unique. 1 believe that this will serve as a m odel staff developm ent program for other regions across the state to follow. This institute is exactly what our staffs have been asking for; time to plan, learn, share, and grow professionally with each other. We are simply offering them the opportunity and structure to make this happen.” U nlike ipast professional developm ent opportunities offered to their staff, the two school districts and ESD have put together a unique experience focused on establishing professional learning communities for their em ployees. A ccording to Mark M ulvihill, Assistant Superintendent of Hermiston School District, “this institute will provide a collaborative format that truly meets the needs of our teachers. By creating professional learning communities, teachers and staff from throughout the region can collaborate and create practical, hands-on lessons to increase student achievement.” Individual cohorts will be formed by specific grade levels and topics and will be facilitated by Hermiston, Morrow County, and ESD teachers and employees. Staff will have the opportunity to work with their peers to improve their skills, learn and grow from each other, and leave with valuable, practical strateg ies to implement in their classrooms next school year. Adjectives such as “job embedded,” “practical,” “collaborative,” “networking" and “fun” all help define this unique experience. Daily sessions are broken down into morning and afternoon time blocks. During the morning, staff will attend subject and g rad e-sp ecific sessions facilitated by local educators who teach them on a daily basis. A fternoons will continue with the same group and will be dedicated to networking and collaborative work time to develop specific strategies and lesson plans to use in the classroom. Daily sessions such as math, literacy, writing, and classroom operations will be facilitated for age groups from K through sixth grade. Junior high and high school subject- specific cohorts, as well as specialty group cohorts in areas such as special education. English language more, will also be lead by local teachers. Evening classes covering com puter applications, first aid/epr training, and laptop lab instruction to name a few will also be available.
