Pillar I - Job Embedded Professional Learning: Learning activities designed and delivered by CCSD Content and instructional Coaches that align with new teacher needs at different phases of the year.

Pillar II - The Mentor/Mentee Relationship: Our mentors in CCSD will provide guidance, support and feedback on research-based practices, curriculum, classroom management, district initiatives, as well as what it means to be a professional teacher. Mentors will serve as coaches guiding and collaborating with induction teachers to ensure success. Mentors will engage induction teachers through reflection and professional goal setting with the purpose of improving professional practices and retaining our teachers in CCSD.

Pilar III - Professional Support Systems: Teaching is hard but meaningful work, and it is easier when we are surrounded by communities of professionals. Through small group cohorts, optional PLC opportunities, and informal coaching new teachers will have opportunities to collaborate with other new and early career teachers as well as veteran CCSD educators and leaders.
