NEW TEACHER ACADEMY

Welcome to the NNPS New Teacher Academy website!

The New Teacher Academy provides an infrastructure of support that extends throughout the school year for every newly hired teacher. The academy goal is to offer a wide range of professional development strategies to address the needs of new teachers who are novices as well as those who have prior teaching experience.

This division wide initiative is possible through the shared commitment of the members of the instructional services, human resources, and staff development departments, as well as site-based administrators and hundreds of teacher mentors. Thus the human network of support for new teachers permeates the entire organization of NNPS.

This website was established to bring all New Teacher Academy information together into one place. As an employee of Newport News Public Schools, your information, suggestions, and requests are welcome. Please send your input to the Staff Development Department. Every effort will be made to provide a prompt reply. Thanks for visiting the New Teacher Academy site!
