Board approves one-year 2024–25 district mentoring plan for trial and negotiation inclusion
Summary
The board approved a one-year 2024–25 mentoring plan developed with SLTA input to be tested this year and then incorporated into future contract negotiations; discussion covered mentoring needs for staff tenured elsewhere, aides becoming certified teachers, classroom visits and release time for mentorship activities.
The board approved a one-year 2024–25 district mentoring plan after SLTA representatives and other staff contributed to an updated plan now stored in the shared drive. The Chair said the group "put a group together" and that the plan addressed questions such as whether educators tenured elsewhere still need mentoring, how aides who become certified teachers would be handled, and arranging classroom visits and small amounts of release time for mentor activities.
The board approved the plan for one year so it can be evaluated and revised; the presenter said the intention is to revisit and, if satisfactory, build the mentoring language into the next multi-year contract. Resolution No. 0392024 approved the 2024–25 District mentoring plan by voice vote. Board members expressed general approval of the work and the plan’s flexibility for future adjustments.
The transcript records several participants and references SLTA involvement and named contributors; no specific budgetary or staffing line items for the mentoring plan were discussed in the recorded segment.
