"A good mentor can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning." – Brad Henry
Congratulations to Mrs. Brandy Lane, Eisenhower Middle School, and Mrs. Carrie McSwain, Challenger Intermediate School, on receiving the District Attitude Award! Mr. Tracy Bauer, Senior Program Consultant with the New Teacher Center, nominated them.
Their nominator wrote, “I wanted to shine a light on your Mentoring Program Leaders, Brandy Lane and Carrie McSwain. These two dynamos have taken on the leadership of the mentoring program with such enthusiasm and commitment that culminated in them leading a successful mentoring training last week for all new mentors in the district. Brandy and Carrie have achieved the following in less than a year:
• redesigned the program to ensure cohesiveness and a commitment to developing teacher instruction
• supported all mentors in the district through professional learning opportunities and one-to-one coaching
• learned and prepared a comprehensive mentoring training for an audience of new mentors
• effectively facilitated the mentoring training with a diverse group of peer teachers by stepping into the shoes of professional learning facilitators
Brandy and Carrie have blown me away with their commitment to this work and their willingness to take on these leadership roles. Their presenter skills showcased their many talents, especially their ability to listen and respond effectively to their fellow teacher mentors. One participant said the following about the training, "Then I realized that I was sitting in the first professional development that I have truly enjoyed in years."
Brandy and Carrie are true leaders of education in Goddard; their peers respect them and they deeply understand all facets of education including social-emotional, student-centered instruction, and meeting all learners' needs. They embody the values and vision of Goddard, and I am honored to be their partner in this work.”
