Trust Gives Grant To Increase Teacher Diversity

Meyer Memorial Trust has given a $175,000 grant to Columbia Gorge Community College, Hood River County School District, North Wasco County School District 21, and the Columbia Gorge Educational Service District to develop a teacher training program in partnership with Oregon State University.  Dan Spatz of CGCC says the program will start over the next year, and will be focused on grades K-5 with an intent of diversifying the instructional workforce.  Spatz says the program will get people started on the path toward becoming teachers, and act as a springboard toward four-year programs.
