Mentors are experienced classroom teachers, instructional coaches or lead teachers who have been trained extensively in ways to best support new teachers (including doing demonstration lessons, co-teaching, offering suggestions about classroom management and helping plan lessons). Mentors provide a minimum of two periods a week of non-evaluative and nonjudgmental support for new teachers. Discussions are confidential and the mentor does not report back to your principal.
If there is additional compensation offered (ie, for mentoring outside of regular school hours), the principal must post the position just as they would any other per session posting. Regular rules apply for any missed preps.
