Program Overview

Our vision for Mentor 36 is to design a sustained culture of collaborative mentorship at every site in Surrey, supporting professional growth and a sense of belonging for Surrey Schools. For the 2019 – 2020 school year, we want to take a bold step to bring mentorship to EVERY SITE in Surrey Schools. In this model, mentors will pair up with mentees from the same school or the same Family of schools in a 1:1 or 1:2 ratio. Ultimately, our hope is that every first-year teacher who comes to our district will be welcomed and supported by an experienced mentor.
