Collins High hosts career-pathway teaching contract signing, district highlights pipeline work
Summary
Superintendent said Collins High School held a career pathway teaching contract signing that featured the district’s teacher of the year and district HR leadership; district staff credited Aaron Dennis with growing the pathway.
The Shelby County superintendent reported that Collins High School hosted a career pathway teaching contract signing last week that showcased the district's efforts to recruit and prepare teachers.
The event matters because it highlights a local pipeline to the teaching profession and district efforts to promote the profession, the superintendent said.
The superintendent said the district’s Teacher of the Year, Heather Fallen, "did a really great job about being yourself" at the signing. The superintendent also said Andy Moore, "from our office, director of HR, was there to speak, and he did a really nice job talking about the different pathways to teaching." The superintendent credited Aaron Dennis with "creating this pathway, growing this pathway, and getting people excited about the profession of education."
No contractual details, hiring counts, or funding sources for the pathway were provided in the remarks. The superintendent characterized teaching as "a great profession" and encouraged continued development of the pathway.
