At a recent Chairman McAuliffe round-table discussion that occurred in Hampton Roads, he liked this idea so much he decided to highlight it as a potential policy in a recent campaign e-mail:
“In Norfolk, Brenda Andrews suggested setting up a “teacher mentor corps” in which retired teachers could be called upon to mentor young teachers, helping to enhance the quality of the classroom.”
1) I guess student teaching isn’t doing such a good job anymore.
2) What a brilliant idea: create another government program for former government workers.
