As the teacher shortage crisis continues, we can help simplify your new hire process. The content is organized into five manageable modules that teachers can easily comprehend, allowing for meaningful discussions between principals and educators. Once teachers have completed this course, they will have the knowledge and confidence to help positively impact students’ learning outcomes, as well as their own performance and professional growth. The T-TESS Teacher Orientation is excellent for new and late hires.

Haley – EAGLE MT-SAGINAW ISD (verified owner) –
I think it was good, but I believe it would have been more beneficial to watch an experienced admin go through a TTESS from pre to post conference than try and attempt to evaluate someone else since I am not the one who will be doing evaluations.
