GREAT BEGINNINGS MENTORING "Research indicates that mentoring new teachers can increase their students' motivation and critical thinking skills. Thus, mentors can be sure that they play an important role in assisting a beginning teacher not only to develop competence but to remain longer within the profession." Jean Boreen The purposes of Granite School Districts Great Beginnings Program are to facilitate the growth of the new teacher toward the highest levels of professional and personal development possible , and to create professional learning communities in our schools.
