Strengthening & Sustaining Teachers
"Preservice teacher preparation, teacher induction during the first two years of teaching, and professional development opportunities that extend throughout a teacher’s career must interlock to strengthen and sustain the quality of American teachers."
—Pat Wasley, Chair SST Coordinating Council
Strengthening and Sustaining Teachers
(SST) is a five-year initiative aimed at building and describing teacher-development systems (including three necessary partners: school districts, unions, and universities) to collaborate on the redesign of teacher preparation, new-teacher induction, and ongoing professional development, and to create strong, connective tissue between and among these component parts.
