Individuals responsible for making teacher assignment decisions can develop a network of peers to exchange ideas about how best to address any challenges that might arise as they prepare to make their assignments.
You must take the time to think about what you write, what you say, who you will get to ensure that your team keeps the quality you are looking for to support your students. So for me, the idea of a mentor at the administrator level or at the same position – that’s what’s key to the success of a new administration.
– Elementary school principal
This year we have a new administrator. She really made me feel valued by asking what I wanted to teach next year. I appreciated how she met with the school staffing committee – everyone knew what was being done and why! Everyone seems comfortable with their assignments for next year and is thinking ahead to program for their kids.
