Beginning Teacher Support & Assessment (BTSA)

Welcome to BTSA 2008-2009!

Whether you are a participating teacher, principal, or support provider, Union School District’s BTSA Team pledges to offer the highest quality training and support for first and second year teachers to expand and deepen their teaching knowledge and skills.

High quality professional development for new and experience teachers, support providers and site administrators has never been more important than at this time. Learning with other educators can offer the answers we are looking for. A variety of training options can offer the perfect solution for the quandary of “How can we teach every student given the wide range of needs?” “How do we teach all that is required?” “How can I manage all that I have to do?”

Whether you are an experienced educator with years of experience in search of renewal or a newer teacher in search of support, we invite you to peruse the BTSA information for a variety of purposes. You will find calendars of activities and training, forms, and tips for success – everything you need to know about BTSA teacher support and training.

Happy teaching – - and learning!
