3rd weekend Day 2

Through the presentation today on mentoring as well as yesterdays group presentations it was clear that in our district we have a well-established program setup for first year teachers. As I went through it my first two years I was frustrated because I had already been teaching for two at another school but since I did not have my standard license yet I still had to go through the process. Mentoring was the number one priority in our district and it cause me to miss multiple practices as well. Looking back at the whole process its clear why a district has to be so strict in order to show the importance of the program. The important thing is if you are going to place that importance on it, then it needs to be well planned out and have meaning.
