The Teacher Induction
Program (TIP) assists and supports teachers new to Duval
County. Site-based mentors are provided to new teachers
as they move through their first years of teaching. The
mentors observe and coach our new teachers. Each school
also has a Professional Development Facilitator (PDF)
who coordinates the Teacher Induction Program at their
school. Additionally, workshops are conducted throughout
the district for new teachers by the District’s Cadre.
Topics for the workshops include but are not limited to:
Rituals and Routines; Instructional Strategies;
Effective Communication and Conferencing; Diversity;
Lesson Planning; and Ethics. These workshops provide a
forum for new teachers to talk with one another and
share ideas and concerns. Each year, an estimated 1000
teachers participate in the Teacher Induction Program.
