1 2. On November 29, 2011, Gilligan filed a C-1 application to reinstate her charter school
2 registration. Gilligan failed to respond t0 two notices from TSPC that her application
‘ 3 was incomplete sent on February 24, 2011 and April 25, 2011.
i 4 3. Eighteen months later on October 1, 2012 TSPC received Gilligan’s second C-1
i 5 application for reinstatement of her Oregon Charter School Registry. TSPC sent notices
6 that Gilligan’s application was incomplete on November 15, 2012 and November 19,
7 2012. Specifically, Gilligan had failed to submit the fee to process the application. The
8 fee was finally submitted on February 1, 2013. On February 3, 2012 Gilligan's
9 application was referred to investigations for review. Gilligan’s Professional Educational
1O Experience Report (PEER) form received 0n October 1, 2012, indicated she had been
. 1 1 consistently employed as an educator from 2005 until the time of her application in
12 2012. The Commission’s investigation determined that Gilligan worked as an educator
13 from the time 0f the expiration of her charter school registration, August 2005 until
14 August 2012 without a license or registration for a a period of approximately seven (7)
1 5 years.
16 Gilligan denies any intent to work without proper charter school registration and offers
17 several explanations as to why she was not properly registered. These include
18 communications breakdowns between Gilligan and her charter school and the chartering
19 school district and having multiple TSPC accounts under different variations of her
20 name. Gilligan understands that the responsibility for proper registration falls upon the
21 educator regardless of an individual’s circumstances or difficulties and if for any reason
22 becomes unregistered or unlicensed, must be removed from the classroom until the
23 proper registration has been obtained.
