Peer Assistance & Review (PAR)

 

 

The PAR model adopted by the Coachella Valley Unified School District is a product of negotiation with the Coachella Valley Teachers Association (CVTA) and explicitly follows the guidelines provided in the California Education Code. PAR support providers are skilled, experienced teachers who receive training and guidance in supporting teachers who either self-refer to the program, or who are referred as a result of the certificated evaluation process. The process of providing support is monitored by the District’s PAR Council, made up jointly of Administrators and CVTA members.

 

For participation in PAR or BTSA, contact the District Liaison

Induction Program

Coachella Valley Unified School District is committed to supporting new teachers as they transition from preparation into professional practice. Our Teacher Induction Program provides individualized, job-embedded support and mentoring for eligible beginning teachers as they clear their California Preliminary Credential.

Through the Induction Program, participating teachers engage in:

  • One-on-one mentoring with experienced, trained educators
  • Goal setting and reflection aligned to the California Standards for the Teaching Profession (CSTPs)
  • Professional learning opportunities tailored to each teacher’s strengths and areas for growth
  • Ongoing collaboration to improve teaching practices and student learning outcomes

The CVUSD Induction Program emphasizes a supportive, reflective, and growth-oriented approach designed to help teachers thrive in their classrooms and careers. Our ultimate goal is to retain talented educators and ensure every student receives high-quality instruction.

For questions about eligibility or enrollment in Induction, please contact Marivel Murillo in the Human Resources Department.
