Blank and Kershaw provide the complete guide to planning, initiating, managing, and solving the dilemmas associated with mentoring." -Dave F. Brown, Coauthor, What Every Middle School Teacher Should Know "Blank and Kershaw have put together a handbook that should be on the desktop of anyone managing an induction program, preparing mentors, or serving in a mentoring role themselves." -Kenneth R. Howey, Research Professor University of Cincinnati Transform intermittent one-on-one teacher mentoring into systematic, school-based new teacher support!

Administrators and teacher leaders in any school or district can use this comprehensive how-to guide to: Develop, assess, and sustain mentoring programs Attract and retain talented teachers Develop teacher leaders Create energized learning communities With step-by-step guidelines and real-world scenarios, this resource provides all the structures, policies, and practices that school and district leaders need to establish a systematic mentoring program to help beginning teachers develop confidence, competence, and professional skills.
