Seeking Coordinating Body Members

The WREN is led by a diverse team called a Coordinating Body that is composed of at least 51% K-12 teachers. We strive to have a Coordinating Body that is racially, ethnically, culturally, and/or linguistically diverse, and reflective of our region's educators and students. Our team benefits greatly from including novice educators in their first three years of teaching.

We have open seats for:

 

  • Teachers from Blachly, Crow-Applegate-Lorane, Central Linn, Harrisburg, McKenzie, Monroe, or Scio School Districts

  • Representative from a non-profit or philanthropic organization

  • Representative from the Confederated Tribes of the Siletz Indians
