How can TxBESS help my district? Why should I want teachers away from their classrooms to attend training?
Beginning teachers who are mentored by TxBESS trained teachers stay in the profession longer. Therefore, hiring costs are reduced. It costs about $3000 a year to support a beginning teacher and $8000 a year to replace a beginning teacher. It also increases your ability to promote campus initiatives by building a stable faculty. Finally student learning is increased when they have teachers with significant teaching experience.
