Abstract | In 1987, the Ohio Department of Education enacted a new policy requiring all school districts to plan and implement programs designed to provide support to newly hired professional educators. The mandate's intent was to ensure that inexperienced teachers, counselors, social workers, psychologists, supervisors, or administrators hired to work in Ohio school districts would have access to conditions creating a supportive environment for succeeding at their new jobs. This paper discusses the support systems available to supervisors, vocational education directors, and administrators. The Entry Year Standard also requires the designation of experienced school administrators to serve as career guides or mentors for beginning administrators. Two primary issues underlie this standard's enactment: (1) a perceived need for new administrators to enter the field; and (2) recognition that many realities facing new administrators must be learned on the job. A primary task of the Ohio LEAD (Leadership in Educational Administration Development) Center is to develop implementation strategies for local school systems. The LEAD Center's work on the Entry Year Standard has revolved around two tasks: developing a "Resource Guide" to help program implementors and providing training concerning the mentoring concept. A brief overview of resource guide contents is provided. An appendix presents the Ohio Entry Year Standard. (MLH) |
