A Network Connecting School Leaders From Around The Globe
Two of the U.S. Department of Education's biggest responsibilities will shift to other federal agencies: safeguarding student civil rights and administering programs for students with disabilities. The Trump administration said on 6/17/26 that it will move much of the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services (OSERS) to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Do you support this change?

NY teachers work 9 months or 180-184 days. This needs to be considered when comparing them to other full-time professionals. It is misleading to compare a teacher $$ working 3/4 of a calendar year to other professionals who work 12 months per year. |

In our area, most teachers are tutoring at a fee of $150 per hour in order to add to their earnings. Some, depending upon need, may even have additional coaching jobs or other employment. |

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource
Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and
other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching
practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
