OSEA Chapter 600 - Lane County Head Start


OSEA OFFERS SCHOLARSHIP MONEY

The Oregon School Employees Association sponsors two $1000 scholarships in

each of the seven zones for classified and Head Start employees to further

their education in an accredited school. Applicants must be OSEA members in

good standing as of December 31, 2003 to be eligible. This would be a great

way for Head Start employees to finance continuing education or education to

meet the needs of the Federal mandates for teachers and associate teachers.

Applicants will be accepted on the following criteria:

*A brief statement, not to exceed 150 words, describing your educational

interests, plans, and activities both inside and outside your work.

*Attach two references that include a brief statement about you. One of these references must be from an OSEA member.

*The application must be postmarked on or before February 2, 2004.

Winners will be notified in the spring of 2004 and honored during the OSEA

annual conference in June.

If you or your co-workers are interested in applying for this scholarship,

please contact Wanda Gledhill, your chapter president or any OSEA office, or

phone 1-800-252-6732 for information and application forms.
