FWISD New Teacher Learning
Professional Learning Designed Specifically for New Teachers
Mandatory Training: T-TESS for New Hires
Participants will learn about the new Texas Teacher Evaluation and Support System (T-TESS). Teachers will have a clear understanding about the new system, the implications for teacher evaluations, and how it will support all in learning and growing as a school community, to ultimately impact our students’ performance.
All teachers new to Fort Worth ISD are required to complete T-TESS training within the first six weeks of employment (whether you attended in a previous district or not).
NEW HIRE TRAINING FOR 2018-2019 IS COMPLETE. TRAININGS WILL RESUME THIS SUMMER.
If you have trouble registering, please contact Nancy.Nabozny@fwisd.org.
