Not Your Grandma's BTSA Program

New SUHSD Induction Standards (December, 2015)

"BTSA" (Beginning Teacher Support and Assessment) no longer exists. In the past, BTSA at the State level allocated money specifically for implementation of a CFASST (California Formative Assessment and Support System for Teachers)-driven induction program. With transition to the LCFF (Local Control Funding Formula), funds previously earmarked through BTSA were rolled into the LCAP (Local Control Accountability Plan) informing district-level programs to include support for beginning teachers.
