Site Facilitators
 

Site Facilitators assist the principal in supporting newly hired teachers at their school.  In order for a school to have a Site Facilitator, the school must have at least 3 teachers who are required to take the Novice On-Site Seminar, including newly hired veteran teachers, novice 1st year teachers, and novice Special Ed teachers.  Site Facilitators communicate weekly with the novice teachers at their school and provide ongoing site support.  They also collaborate with the Site Mentors at their school and help to resolve minor issues or concerns that may arise.  Site Facilitators teach the monthly Novice On-Site Seminar held at their school, and complete the related paperwork and web attendance.  They collect and submit paperwork to the Staff Development Office such as applications, contact logs, leave forms, needs assessments, etc.  Site Facilitators have three years of mentoring experience and have completed the Foundations of Mentoring training.  They attend the monthly Site Facilitator Development Seminar, as well as advanced training such as Observation and Feedback Strategies.
