Recent changes in SBE Policy TCP-A-004, Policies on the Beginning Teacher Support Program, require LEAs to make revisions to their local Beginning Teacher Support Plan (BTSP).
The BTSP is a required, three-year induction program for beginning teachers.  During the induction period, beginning teachers (BTs) are to have a formal orientation and mentor support.  The goal of a teacher induction program is to provide a systematic structure of support for beginning teachers for the first three years of their careers as they attempt to gain their continuing license.  Most of these revisions are due to changes in mentor eligibility requirements.
 
Brian Weaver will present the revised Beginning Teacher Support Plan and answer any questions you may have.  The plan is attached for your review. 
 
A motion is in order to approve the Beginning Teacher Support Plan as revised.
