Greeters Hosted by Willamette Promise (WESD)
About Our Host:
Willamette Promise got its start in 2014 with a Regional Promise Replication Grant from the Oregon Department of Education. Its goals are to expand opportunities to earn accelerated credit, enhance career readiness and a college-going culture in Oregon’s schools and communities, and strengthen coordination and collaboration across educational sectors. Most of all, WP seeks to build each student’s confidence in his or her ability to succeed in college by awarding college credit when a student demonstrates college-level learning as defined by college faculty. This is particularly important for students who have not previously imagined succeeding in college.
Willamette Promise's organizational structure is unique in Oregon. The Willamette Education Service District (WESD) houses WP’s administrative core and provides extensive human and technical infrastructure to support the delivery of WP courses and connect partnering universities with K-12 school districts throughout our region. This innovative arrangement has allowed WP to scale up in sustainable ways while maintaining the quality of learning and credits awarded.
