Region 4 Novice Teacher Collaborative (R4NTC)
R4NTC is a network of selected science and math teachers with less than five years of teaching whose aim is to contribute to the success of novice teachers. The collaborative meets once a month, and the interactive sessions help support and reflect on their career and classroom. This group of teachers also facilitated some of our summer camps which gave them opportunities to teach beyond their given curriculum.
