High School Special Education Teachers

Administration will be recommending to the Board of Education that they approve the hiring of Beth van der Berg and Paul Boettcher for the vacant high school special education teaching positions.  They each have multiple licensures which will allow us the opportunity to continue to provide our students with disabilities flexibility in services, programming, and course offerings.  Their experiences will also help provide us with more options for students with disabilities.

We were very fortunate to have many exceptional candidates apply for our positions.  I wish that we could have hired all of them.  The decision making process is challenging at times especially when there are so many good applicants.  Several other school districts have contact us looking for applicants for theri vacant special education positions.  Their information will be forwarded onto them.  I have no doubt that the candidates who applied for a position will find employment in another school district or in Medford in the future.  I would like to thank them for applying for a position here to work with our students with disabilities.
