The New Teacher Induction and Mentoring Team (NTIM) is seeking experienced educators to become mentors in order to support new teachers in district's New Teacher Cohort. The New Teacher Cohort aims to develop, retain, and sustain new teachers in service of ensuring equitable learning experiences across the district. In order to best support our new teachers and welcome them into the CPS community, we must be intentional about ensuring our program and professional learning is aligned with the Inner Core (Identity, Relationships, Community) of the CPS Instructional Core Vision.
