You should have been assigned a Mentor Teacher to assist in getting you started in the classroom.

Just wait--you'll either have a mentor teacher who is teaching the same grade as you and/or a coach who is a specialist working with multiple resident teachers depending on your particular school's staffing needs. They will help you by providing lesson plans etc. But no one here will be able to tell you precisely your situation because schools differ depending on how many resident teacher/long-term sub positions they have and the workload of the other teachers.

Did the principal hire you on the spot right after the interview? What field?

You'll need to have fingerprints taken and I hear that process is backed up.

Just waiting for a background check. Hopefully HR calls me tomorrow so I can get my finger prints done….


I don’t really have experience working as a lead teacher, I will be working with ID students at a middle school.

How do you know??


It listed right next to her name in the school directory. "Teacher Resident"
I googled her. She has a 2021 undergraduate degree in theater. So someone who wanted to be an actress, realized it's impossible, and is now trying to teach without a teaching degree because it was an easy job to get. Can't wait.


So? Remember when you were all piling on teachers during the pandemic, telling them they had to go in "because the kids don't catch it", telling them they should quit if they didn't go in and any warm body would do a better job, and then accusing them of being pedophiles and groomers? How much abuse did you think people would take for 60k a year? They listened to you! You bought it, you own it now. Enjoy!


This. In 2020, at the worst of the pandemic pre vaccine, I exasperatedly asked a hypothetical question about whether these angry parents would rather have an unemployed, totally unqualified mouthbreather who couldn’t cut it as a Target cashier “teach” their kids in person rather than an experienced, qualified teacher virtually and was met with a ridiculous cavalcade of “Yes!!” “100%!!”

Cool. “Enjoy,” indeed.



Well, from most people's POV, virtual school has zero value so it could be the great poet society guy teaching it and honestly? Wouldn't matter. No one is learning especially in ES.
So yes, school with a moron teacher is better then no school at all.


ummm ok lol


There's really nothing funny about a Sophie's Choice between school with an idiot teacher and no school.


My kids got a lot out of virtual school. Also I was mature enough to realize it was a pandemic, and schools were doing what they could under difficult circumstances.


Same here. I was satisfied with the instruction that my child received, especially given the extraordinary circumstances.


No one I know was "satisfied" with FCPS during the year schools
were closed.


Hi did you read the bolded part? I feel that my kids' teachers did the best they could do given the circumstances that were out of their control.

Also, psycho, this was over a year ago, you REALLY need to get over it. Find something else to complain about.


They will

I think that the people who are still whining about Covid closures are people that don't have the intelligence to come up with their own material. Maybe if they paid more attention to their foxnews channel they would come up with some more options. I am really bored with the covid thing.

You cannot be considered a certified teacher. You are a certified teacher or you are not.

Passing the subject area praxis should be a minimum requirement for a teacher residency in MS or HS.


OMG, how are you a teacher? They passed the praxis, they are certified teachers. Learn how to comprehend what you are reading!!!


A teacher who has completed the praxis and other requirements for a provisional license is a certified teacher and is paid on the teacher
scale. A teacher resident has only a requirement for a college degree before starting and after that one year to complete the requirements for the provisional license and will be paid 48K. A sub is a short term job paid hourly.

HR


What about IAs. They make less than 40K. Have most of the IAs been moved to Teaching Resident job. Or IAs mostly not have a college degree.

Thank you for showing up and saving us from the same conversation on repeat!

Many IAs haven't yet completed a full teaching degree. IAs that have and that want more responsibility could switch to teaching resident job.
But teaching resident has to put in a lot more work and have a lot more responsibility--both on the job and then meeting the requirements for licensure after the year.
