New Teacher Evening

Being the 'newbie' in a large organization can be intimidating and nerve-wracking.

What should I expect?

How to do I find the resources I need?

Who are the people that can help me?

How can I connect with others who are in the same situation as me?

 

To support teachers who are new to the North Vancouver School District, the Learning Services department recently hosted an evening to bring together teachers who have started in our school district over the last two years. Roughly 100 teachers attended!

The New Teacher Network event was hosted by the teacher leaders for each Family of Schools and included presentations by technology helping teachers, Indigenous education success teachers, French Immersion facilitator, and English Language Learner teachers. Topics ranged from inclusive education, to how teacher leaders can support new teachers in their practice, to teaching support resources, and establishing new teacher networks. The event also included light snacks and refreshments to allow staff to network.

Feedback from the event was very positive!

One attendee said, "I was impressed with the information and resources on the website, as well as the encouragement and support demonstrated by the staff. You were successful in welcoming more people into the NV family, to 'learn, share and grow'."
