Time to Sign up to be a Mentor—Advise a New Staff Member in 2013-14!

It’s time to sign up for mentoring for certified staff for the 2013-14 school year! Mentoring not only benefits the mentee but the mentor, too. As a mentor, you’ll benefit by: 

• Knowing that you’re helping others learn and work to achieve their goals. 
• Improving your personal development and skills. You may be mentoring a person from a different generation or a different culture. This can help you learn to communicate in a different manner. 
• Learning new information and approaches. As a mentor, you’ll learn from the person you’re mentoring, sometimes just because that person’s outlook is fresh. 
• Helping create long-term employees. 
• Receiving a payment of $1,000 (gross) (in two $500 payments) for providing 15 hours of one-on-one coaching and support for your mentee. 

 If you would like to become a mentor, please complete the Mentor Application and return it to Carolyn Jones, Human Resources Assistant, by February 25. If you are picked to be a mentor, more information will be provided at a later date. 

If you are currently a mentor and would like to continue mentoring next year, you must reapply. 

The Mentor Application and Program Guide are available on the Intranet > Human Resources > Mentoring Program and by clicking here.
