CSD/RPDC Offers Mentor Program for Administrators
Learning opportunities start in January 2007
In cooperation with the Missouri Department of Elementary and
Secondary Education, an Administrator Mentoring Program (AMP) is
available throughout the State. Missouri requires all new school
leaders to receive two years of structured and documented
mentoring. The AMP initiative provides new school district
leaders with access to trained mentors. Through the program, new
leaders receive 26 hours of customized mentoring support for two
years.
Several participants from CSD member districts are currently being
mentored by an AMP mentor. CSD and the St. Louis Regional
Professional Development Center (RPDC) are working closely through
AMP to offer small group learning experiences for new leaders and
their mentors.
Beginning in January 2007, a
number of learning opportunities will be offered (see listing
below).
To learn more about becoming a mentor or to participate in
AMP activities listed below, please contact Dennis Dorsey,
associate executive director of professional development for CSD,
at 314.692.9715 or ddorsey@csd.org.
Call 314.692.9715 or 314.692.9735 for information about these
programs. NOTE: All programs will be held at the St. Louis RPDC,
located at 8225 Florissant Road.
