Description

Supporting new teachers is complex and demanding work, and it involves skills other than those that most classroom teachers possess. It is critical, therefore, that we think not only what a new teacher needs to be successful, but also what a mentor teacher needs to know and be able to do in order to support a new teacher.

Event Notes

The Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) manages Washington State’s Beginning Educator Support Team (BEST) induction program. As part of this, BEST works with districts to provide sustained and purposeful support for early-career educators. BEST provides information, professional development for mentors and leadership, resources, and grants (as appropriated by legislative funding) for comprehensive induction for novice teachers. The program goals are to reduce educator turnover, improve educator quality for student learning, and ensure equity of learning opportunity for all students.
