Who are eligible mentors, and how does one become a mentor?
Eligible mentors are retired school leaders and currently employed school leaders with principal and/or director experience in public schools. Currently employed school leaders cannot mentor a new school leader within the same district but may mentor someone in another district. In such cases, the mentor must ensure that he/she will be able to provide the required minimum number of mentoring contact hours and support. Those interested in mentoring must apply to the FEA and complete the state–required mentor training program.
