Your Go-To-Guide For New Teachers
Time to Celebrate and Reflect
We are almost to the half way point! Students are wrapping up assessments and finishing assignments before the end of the semester. It is an extremely busy time of the year! Don't forget to reflect on all of your successes! Think about what is working well and what areas might need some tweaks. Watch the video below on some National Teachers of the Year. Here are some questions you can think about as you watch:
- How do these teachers talk about their students' growth?
- How do these teachers talk about their own growth?
- How can strong relationships help to support growth?
FAQ's for New Teachers
Please check out the FAQ's for our HREQ Department. Questions about PDCP, deliberate practice, evaluation (FEAPS), and benefits. Hopefully all of your questions will be answered!!!
New Teacher Liaison of the Month: Jamie Fox
I began my career in Polk County teaching 4th grade. I earned my Bachelors and Masters Degree from USF. Go Bulls! I am endorsed in the areas of Reading and Gifted Education. This is my first year as a new teacher liaison and I look forward to sharing my knowledge that I have acquired over my 12 years in education. I couldn’t do this without the support of my husband and my two boys. I am excited to continue develop relationships with all staff.
Happy Holidays!
Wishing you and your families a wonderful holiday!
Sincerely,
Charlotte and Steve
