Arizona New Teacher Induction Network

The Arizona New Teacher Induction Network (AZNTIN) invites teams that support induction and mentoring work in their district to enhance their work by engaging in professional learning and collaboration. District teams attend a two-day fall session, a one-day winter session, and a one-day spring session focused on building capacity and the impact of induction programs. It is expected that each participating district creates a four-member team that includes a program director, one mentor, a site administrator and one other person of the team’s choosing.

Our network will continue to be grounded in the New Teacher Center’s induction program standards 9.2 and 10.2, which focus on ensuring mentors have the knowledge, skills, tools, and resources to help beginning teachers provide every student access to relevant and rigorous, standards-aligned lessons and curriculum while using culturally responsive pedagogical practice to provide every student with equitable access to rigorous, grade-level content.
