Teacher-mentoring program continued with Edge Foundation support; $500 stipend retained
Summary
The district confirmed the school-based teacher mentor program will continue with the same requirements and a $500 stipend; Edge Foundation confirmed funding of approximately $50,000 to match last year’s support.
Lake County Schools confirmed the school-based teacher mentoring program will continue this year with the same eligibility and requirements, and that the $500 stipend for mentors remains unchanged. District staff (S1) said Edge Foundation confirmed funding for the program and that the total matched last year’s amount, which S1 recalled as roughly $50,000.
Mentors in the meeting reported mixed experiences with the notification process: some mentors said they did not receive email confirmation when their member agreements were approved. The district will follow up with the professional learning department and doctor Scott (program manager) to ensure mentors receive required communications and that mentoring can start earlier with confirmed funding.
