County Mentors
To support
Induction teachers, principals assign each new teacher a mentor.
Mentors are asked to meet regularly with their mentee/s throughout
the school year to give support. Mentors should document the time
of the meetings on the Mentor Time Sheet. Mentors are also asked
to attend four (4) Mentor Training Workshops during the school year.
The District will pay mentors a rate of $20.00 per hour for a maximum
of $300.00 per mentee, and will allot $50.00 for each meeting attended.
To receive the stipend the Mentor Time Sheet must be submitted to
Doris Hickson in the Office of Federal Programs by June 1, 2011.
Upon principal verification, mentors may receive 30 staff development
points at the end of the year.
