This 60-minute webinar from National Center for Grow Your Own explores common characteristics of strategic school staffing models, such as teacher apprenticeships and residencies. Featuring models from Next Education Workforce at Arizona State University and Opportunity Culture at Public Impact, the panelists discuss the importance of challenging the one-teacher, one-classroom model by forming teams of educators. The webinar explores different team structures that recognize the importance of the specialization of lead teachers and education specialists (paraeducators, special educators, student success coaches) in supporting student success. Moreover, it emphasizes how recruitment and retention efforts might benefit from paid apprenticeship and residency pathways in partnership with strategic school staffing initiatives. Such models may also create professional advancement opportunities for paraprofessionals to become professional educators and teachers to become principals. This resource may be useful to school and district leaders looking for solutions to challenges in creating a sustainable educator pipeline and improving student outcomes.
