New Teachers Meet

The 2018-19 New Teacher Cohort met January 31 for a final district orientation meeting for the year.  The group discussed classroom management strategies and end of year procedures, including state testing and flex days. 

Supporting New Teachers

Trussville's newest teachers gathered after school at the Central Office on October 30.  The group meets throughout the year for the purpose of reflecting and gaining support.  The teachers analyzed the TCS Educator Effectiveness Nine Indicators and viewed a video of a lesson, looking for those nine indicators.  

Newest TCS Teachers Gather to Reflect on First Days of School

New 18-19 teachers gathered today to debrief and learn together.  The group shared first days' stories, laughing and supporting one another.  They reviewed the TCS District Literacy Non-negotiables and looked over the TCS Literary Canon.  Breakout sessions included a discussion of the district's plan for academic vocabulary instruction and a brief tutorial regarding Google and Clever. 

Thank you for the heartfelt feedback from a new teacher.
