Peer Assistance/Mentoring
The Induction Program is comprised of four components:
Peer Assistance, Mentor Teachers, Administrative Support
and Professional Development. The program is a component
of the Professional Development Office, and is facilitated
by the Peer Assistants.
Peer Assistance Program
The Boise School District and the Boise Education
Association are continuously striving to provide the
highest possible quality of education. We recognize
that for students to succeed in learning, teachers
must succeed in teaching. The Peer Assistance Program
provides collegial and instructional support to new
and veteran teachers.
The Program includes a Joint Steering Panel comprised
of BEA and District administrative members, and four
full-time Peer Assistants. Peer Assistants work directly
with teachers to create a plan for success, which may
include goals based on principal evaluations and teacher
aims. Peer Assistants maintain confidentiality while
working collaboratively with building administrators
and teachers.
Peer Assistant Leaders are experienced certificated
employees who have mastered their craft, are dedicated
to promoting excellence in the teaching profession,
and have interest in working closely with colleagues
to improve the quality of their instruction.
