Reviews

As an assistant principal, the data presented in this book was eye-opening. The authors shared information, strategies, and tools that have better prepared me to support the novice teachers I work with daily. As administrators, we are always looking for ways to better our practices, and this book is a powerful tool to do just that. I recommend administrators take the time to review the content and resources provided because both can help us be more effective and efficient in supporting and retaining novice teachers in that crucial first year of teaching. -- Mallorey Jones, educator With evidence that teacher efficacy and effectiveness is linked to positive outcomes for students, in addition to teacher retention, every educational leader should read this book. The research presented should be internalized by school and district leaders to inform practices and systems aimed to support novice teachers. The resources offered may also be useful when engaging experienced educators in coaching cycles. -- Melvin L. Hollins, Ed.D, K-12 educational leader This book provides much needed insight to those of us in administrative positions stressing the importance of supporting our novice teachers. The emphasis on building capacity is timely in where we find ourselves in education today. -- Heidi Wilson, superintendent. East End School District Attention administrators- this book is a must read! Not only does it provide our current reality in education with a research-based study on novice support, but the authors also empower you with a model of practical application in the six critical components necessary for teacher retention! Why re-create the wheel or continue in a decreasing trend for new hires? This book developed a resource guide that can be implemented in any school/district as a tool to meet the evolving and various new teacher needs with continuous professional growth, regardless of individual pre-service preparation or experience, for successful future teacher generations in education! -- Amber Brantley, principal Sorbet, Kohler-Evans, Calhoon, and Wake have created a book that speaks to all the stakeholders in the trenches of the ongoing battle to support and retain new teachers. This book clearly and convincingly combines solid research and theory with practical examples for practitioners from the teachers through district-level to apply. Additionally, higher-education instructors and those in professional development will find this book particularly authentic and applicable to the training of school and district leadership. -- Amanda Mayeaux, associate professor University of Louisiana at Lafayette
