Opportunity Culture® Expanding Next Fall

From OA Online, March 22, 2021, by Ruth Campbell

A program to place effective teachers in front of more Ector County ISD students is expanding this coming school year to more campuses.

Executive Director of Talent Development Ashley Osborne said 10 campuses are going to be added to the Opportunity Culture® arsenal. The district currently has eight Opportunity Culture® campuses.

The ECISD website says Opportunity Culture® is “an innovative approach to staffing that multiplies the impact of highly effective teachers, thereby improving student performance.”

“Opportunity Culture® also enhances efforts to recruit and retain highly qualified instructors by offering career advancement opportunities, sustainable higher pay, and on-the-job professional development and support. Bringing Opportunity Culture® to the Permian Basin is a result of partnerships with Public Impact®, US PREP, and the University of Texas Permian Basin,” the site says. No longer available online.
