NVTA/NVSD Joint Mentorship Program
The NVTA/NVSD Joint Mentorship program is a year-long program, organized by the Teacher Mentorship Coordinator, and supported through the Joint Mentorship Committee. This program connects protégés with mentor teachers, and builds support and mutual learning over the course of a school year. Release time is offered to both mentors and protégés as they do this important work.
Mentorship provides a voluntary opportunity for teachers to enhance their practice in a safe, confidential and learning-focused relationship. This is accomplished with an experienced colleague in a completely non-evaluative, non-remedial process based on trust of all those involved. Both mentors and protégés gain from the experience. The goal of the program is to empower all participants in their own professional growth through constructive feedback and build leadership capacity within schools and across the District.
If you are looking for more information or have any questions, you are invited to contact Teacher Mentorship Coordinator, Scott Bennett, at teachermentorship@sd44.ca.
