Abstract

This study conducted an evaluation of the Collegial Coaching Program (CCP) in the Rush-Henrietta (RH) School District. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of the existing mentoring program. The goal was to determine whether the Collegial Coaching Program was an effective mentoring program for new teachers to the RH School District. The goals of the CCP were used as the basis of the design for evaluating the effectiveness of the mentoring program implemented. The participants of this study were chosen at random by a list provided by the Teacher Center of the RH School District. Based on the results of the interviews and pre-interview questionnaire, the CCP is an effective mentoring program for beginning teachers, but areas for further development remain in three areas, including a.) matching mentors and mentees, b.) training for mentors and mentees, and c.) evaluation.
