TEACHER HEAD START PROGRAM
Your first year at a school can feel a little scary. Don’t wait to get involved and get ready. When we make a new hire for the fall, we bring you on as your schedule allows in order to:
Start working with a mentor and your team
Get to know parents and students
Familiarize yourself with the curriculum
Make lesson plans.
This way, when you show up for your first training week of school, you already feel settled in and can overcome those first-year teacher jitters! In addition, we will pay up to 20 days at $100/day for you to do this. This head start is a win-win!
