is to the district’s success and how their duties positively impact the organization as a whole. This recognition helps new employees get a sense of belonging from the start and can excite and motivate them about their con- tributions to the district.
Mentoring and Induction
Although orientation, mentoring, and induction happen after the onboarding process, they are vital parts of a new employee’s experience in the organization. A strong, well-constructed mentoring and induction program for employees gives them a solid footing as they begin their employment within the organization.
Districts should tailor the mentoring and induction programs according to the organization’s various job categories and classifications. In the mentoring and induction program, the district has the opportunity to set expectations for new employees and share informa- tion about the district’s culture, priorities, goals, and strategic plan, along with the day-to-day nuts and bolts of their new roles.
It is also an opportunity for new employees to see how their job fits into the organization’s overall success and to hear from the senior leadership team, generat- ing support and enthusiasm for their employment with the district.
The content can be separated into two categories: ori- entation and induction. On orientation days in Tri-Town School Union, we introduce new employees to the vision of the district and its many different stakeholders, such as the senior leadership team, the teachers’ union lead- ers, the school board members, and the parent organiza- tions that support our schools.
During our induction program, we educate new employees on each of our curriculum areas and the programs and resources for each content area.
We also provide information that will support employees in their new roles, such as accessing the pro- fessional development courses, technology and resources, the educator evaluation process, the bullying prevention
