Enhancing the Future of Education by Actively Supporting Novice Teachers.

- Abstract
As school district leaders face the spiraling problem of losing new teachers during their first 5 years of service, attention has turned to developing induction programs, support services, and mentor relationships for novice teachers. The authors describe one such program, the New Teacher Academy in McNairy County, Tennessee, and the results of the recent program evaluation. Launched in 2006, the New Teacher Academy has evolved dramatically over the years. District personnel have been realistic in the progressive design and growth of the program and instigated a program evaluation based on participant feedback in 2011. Results of the evaluation outlined the directives for immediate changes and continued improvement.
