Program Overview
What are the basics of the mentoring program in TISD?
Who: All new teachers, new to the profession, will receive support from an experienced
mentor teacher to assist them as they begin their teaching careers in Tatum ISD.
What: Tatum ISD mentoring program combines campus-based and district-level support
to reduce attrition and enhance student achievement by providing dedicated,
experienced teachers.
When: Beginning prior to the start of school and ending in May
Why: To provide the minimum expectations for supporting new teachers within district.
Without mentor support, it is estimated that over 32% of Texas new teachers hired
will leave the profession within five (5) years.*
How: The campus is the steward of the program; the District will provide resources and
support for the campus and mentors as needed; and Mentors provide sustained
campus support to new teachers.

“Thoughts are our way of connecting
things up for ourselves. If somebody else
tells us about the connections she/he has
made, we can only understand them to
the extent that we do the work of making
those connections ourselves.”
Eleanor Duckworth
