District teams developing their mentoring program will consider four things: (1) the reasons for a teacher mentor program; (2) how to start such a program; (3) administrative support needed for a successful program; and (4) pitfalls to avoid.

Participants will work through the five stages of development and/or improvement: establishing a rationale, setting criteria for the selection of mentors, defining roles, inviting and training the mentors, and evaluating the program. To be successful, the program must have administrative support from the board of education as well as building administrators and veteran teachers. Mentorship programs promote professionalism by providing continuous staff development during the first years of teaching as well as supporting and retaining teachers.

Ellen Nelson, CESA #12 Educational Consultant
