The existing teacher is still with us and is supposed to mentor the teacher who will be taking over independently next year, but they intend to utilize as much sick leave as possible. My problem is this: How do I create an "unexpected new teacher" orientation plan that is sustainable (help me define my must-knows) with very limited time with the new teacher (1 or 2 partial days before they hit the classroom). Especially if they have no training or former experience in education or with technology?

For example: the rule is no drinks on campus, teachers write it up and the behavior is not addressed and then teachers learn not to be consisitent with the rule.


What do teachers think consequences should look like vs. how it is addressed?
