School Division: Manassas City
Number of Students: 7728
Number of Teachers in Division: 578
Name of Teacher Induction Program: Teacher Education and Mentor (TEAM) Program
Program Overview:
Since there are differing needs for teachers new to Manassas City Public Schools, we offer two tracks in the TEAM program. Teachers who do not have three years of teaching experience will be entered into the three year Beginning Teacher Program. Newly-Hired Experienced Teachers (NETs) will participate in an one year transition program.
The first year of the TEAM Program will support teachers as they apply their knowledge of teaching and share resources in a community of learning. There will be formal meetings with division and building level peers and mentors. All beginning teachers will attend monthly division-wide meetings where topics include:
In addition to division level meetings, teachers will also have the monthly building level meetings where they can create a collaborative community within their school. These meetings are facilitated by the Building Lead Mentor and mentors will be in attendance with their mentees.
The third year of the program will support teachers as they work independently to identify a focus area for the year and do research to find strategies to implement that will improve that area. They will set a goal, research strategies, implement their findings, monitor progress of students, and share their findings at the end of the year. This year of the program will include mentoring at the building level.
