Commissioners in Curry County declared a county emergency this week and have asked Governor Kitzhaber to declare a state of emergency for the county as a result of the storms that began earlier this month and continue to hit the area with heavy wind and rain. Damage estimates are exceeding $500,000, not including damage that has been done to state highways.

The Ashland School District is beginning to implement new standards for evaluating its teachers. By the start of the next school year, a new performance-based evaluation system will take into consideration more than student test scores, and potentially affect how educators are compensated, based on their evaluations. Multiple measures of student achievement will be taken into account, as well as in-class observations by administrators.

A former Roseburg elementary teacher is facing five years in jail following his guilty plea to eight counts of encouraging child sexual abuse. Thirty-year-old Steven Derlacki was accused of 40 counts in the case, but the Deputy District Attorney says both sides agreed to the deal. Sullivan says police found over 500 videos and images of minors involved in sexual acts on Derlacki’s computer. Even more were discovered by the State Crime Lab. Derlacki had been teaching second grade at Fullerton Four Elementary School until his arrest in July of 2010.
