New Teacher Training - Header.png

Whether you are a first-year teacher, a new-to-CHPS teacher, or even a Colonial alumni, there are various components to successfully educating students in Colonial Heights Public Schools. We want to make sure you can start your year in confidence, so this course will prepare you for all of the ins and outs of what it means to educate Colonials.

There are many staff members here to help you in your first-year journey. Each staff member is an instructor in this course and can provide help in their specific area of expertise. On each first page of a module, you'll find a point of contact at the top!

The content in this course will be used in various ways. Some of the content, you'll review on your own, asynchronously. Some of the content will be used as an aid to our in-person meetings and can be later accessed as needed to review.

On the left, you will see your primary navigation links in blue. While you can jump to a particular learning module below, you can access them all in Modules. The modules will require you to complete each piece of content in order. Upon completion of a page of material, you'll click the button at the bottom in order to unlock the next page of content. When you look at the full module, you will be able to see -- to the right of each item -- what you have completed or not. Completed module items will sport a green check. Incomplete items will show a blank circle.
