Arizona's Master Teacher Program
Arizona's Master Teacher Program places experienced, accomplished teachers into leadership roles in schools as mentors for their peers. Teachers with at least five years of experience, strong evaluations, and demonstrated student achievement and growth can apply through the Arizona K-12 Center to become Master Teachers. Master Teachers will be trained to become mentors to beginning teachers with 0-2 years teaching experience to help guide them toward greater effectiveness while retaining them not only in the profession but in the school they teach. With the approval of their school and district, Master Teachers will commit to at least half-time mentoring duties for three years.
