Welcome
We welcome you to our website.
This site is designed to provide new teachers, and those who work with
them, a communication tool for ongoing support..
"We, as a collaboration of school
systems, will work together to enhance existing induction programs for
all beginning teachers. We believe that comprehensive support and
ongoing professional development will increase teacher effectiveness,
thereby impacting positively on student performance, which will result
in greater professional satisfaction."
Our purpose is to share ideas that
work and to create the environments in which beginning teachers can
succeed. We invite your inquires and invite you to share your ideas
with us. High student success is our underlying goal.

About the Collaborative
In April, 1992 Superintendents and
Personnel Directors in northeastern North Carolina joined with other
education agencies to create a comprehensive program for initially
licensed personnel. During the 2008-2009 school year, 14 school systems
continue that collaborative effort.
Representatives from the 14 school
systems meet regularly to plan cooperative activities, to share
practices that work in their respective school systems, and to discuss
current initiatives from DPI and other agencies.
