It is our mission to support, challenge and inspire first year teachers to become competent, confident and compassionate so that they make a positive difference for their students.
Beginning Educators...Successful Teachers (B.E.S.T.) is a comprehensive induction program that supports the new teacher in every capacity. B.E.S.T. teachers are part of a systemic strategic plan to increase the quality and commitment of all educators for the sake of our students.
Rockwall ISD is committed to providing quality training opportunities throughout the year as well as opportunities to observe outstanding educators in our district.
