S 0n April 5, 2012, the Teacher Standards and Practices Commission (Commission) issued
9 a Notice of Opportunity for Hearing to Jennifer Kristen Maguire (Maguire) in which the
10 Commission charged her with Gross Neglect of Duty. The Notice was sent via U.S. First Class
11 Mail and U.S. Certified Mail Receipt 7010 2780 oooo 2187 4184 to the address on file with the
12 Commission. The Notice designated the Commission file as the record for purposes of proving a
13 prima facie case. The Certified Mail was returned as “Unclaimed” on April 30, 2012. The
14 regular mail was not returned to the Commission. The Notice of Opportunity of Hearing, dated
15 April 5, 2012, and signed by Victoria Chamberlain, Executive Director, stated:
16 “IF A REQUEST FOR HEARING IS NOT RECEIVED WITHIN THIS 21-DAY PERIOD,
l7 YOUR RIGHT TO A HEARING SHALL BE CONSIDERED WAIVED UNLESS YOUR
18 FAILURE TO REQUEST A HEARING WAS BEYOND YOUR REASONABLE CONTROL.
19 IF YOU DO NOT REQUEST A HEARING OR IF YOU FAIL TO APPEAR AT A
20 HEARING, THE COMMISSION WILL ADOPT AN ORDER OF DEFAULT WHICH MAY
21 INCLUDE THE REVOCATION OR SUSPENSION OF YOUR LICENSE OR OTHER
22 DISCIPLINE.”
23 Maguire did not request a hearing. The Commission, therefore, finds Maguire to be in default
25 and enters the following findings of fact, conclusions of law and order, based on the files and
26 records of the Commission concerning this matter.
27 FINDINGS OF FACI‘
28 1. Maguire has been registered as a charter school teacher in Oregon since March 24, 2008.
29 She held a Charter School Registry issued March 24, 2008, with an endorsement in Multiple
30 Subjects Self-Contained (ELE), which expired on March 24, 2011. During all relevant times,
31 Maguire was employed by the Eugene 4J School District, Ridgeline Charter School.
‘ 32 2. While employed with the Ridgeline Charter School, Maguire engaged in inappropriate
l 33 conversations with students on the social media website Facebook.com. The conversations
34 included sexually explicit subjects.
35 3. Maguire’s responses, during her interview with a Commission investigator concerning her
36 understanding of how Facebook.com functions, did not match the context 0f the
37 conversation Maguire engaged in on the social networking site. The inconsistency of
38 Maguire’s statements from her conduct indicates that Maguire attempted to misrepresent or
39 minimize her conduct during the interview.
