Instructional assistants share experiences
A group of our instructional assistants (IAs) shared what they love about working in education, in a series of videos made for sharing on social media. Thank you to IAs John, Alia, Blake, and Chad for talking about their work and encouraging others to join the Lane ESD Team! Thank you also to Shawn and Caitlyn of Lane Regional Inclusive Services for sign language interpretation.
The Register-Guard also reported on the staffing challenges we've been experiencing in the article Learning to Cope.
Lane ESD currently has job openings for instructional assistants in Eugene, Springfield, Creswell, and Cottage Grove. Go to lesdjobs.com to apply.
