Teacher Residency Workgroup Findings. Report to the Legislature
Gillon, Nicholas; Barnes, Emma
Washington Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction
In April 2021, the Washington State Legislature appropriated $60,000 of the federal Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) III funds of the American Rescue Plan Act to support a technical advisory workgroup to explore recommended residency options for pre-service educators. This had a focus on educators of color and bilingual/multilingual speakers. The Teacher Residency Workgroup focused its efforts on identifying, describing, and strategizing to develop a residency model that could overcome key challenges that are involved in establishing a statewide paid teacher residency. The members of the Workgroup heard presentations from expert guest speakers and shared their varied experiences with teacher residencies. Project leads systematically analyzed presentations and discussions from these workgroup sessions, academic and professional literature, and Washington State contextual factors to develop recommendations. This report provides details on each of these recommendations, workgroup materials, agendas, and meeting outlines, as well as summaries and synthesized recommendations of each meeting.
