Principal’s Guidelines for Monthly New Educator Support Meetings


This is a general guideline of topics that may be of interest to new educators.  New educators may need the topics and/or the schedule below altered to fit their or the school’s needs.  New educators should be polled for potential topics as well.

New educators should be combined by elementary, middle, and high school occasionally to address these topics and to provide peer support.
