The Principals’ Center of the Connecticut Association of Schools is again offering a formal induction program for all beginning principals and assistant principals in the state. The Principals’ Center Mentor-Mentee Program is designed to help all beginning principals and assistant principals enjoy success during their initial administrator year through the assistance of a mentor and related professional development activities.

It is a research-based program that has evolved into a model that will influence induction requirements at both the district and state levels.

If you have hired any beginning principals and/or assistant principals since January 1, 2010, please register your new administrators on line at www.casciac.org/register. Click on Mentor-Mentee Program Nomination Form 2010-2011.

Each beginning principal and assistant principal will receive a personal invitation to become involved in the Mentor-Mentee Program as soon as we receive the necessary information. Please discuss the involvement in the program with your beginning administrators.

Administration is becoming, as you well know, more and more demanding each year. We need to provide support to our beginning administrators in order to enhance their chances for earlier and more substantive success. Please let us know who your new principals and assistant principals are and encourage them to participate.
