Welcome New Teachers
SDMEA has a mentorship program to provide support to new music teachers (and teachers transferring into South Dakota) as they enter the profession by pairing novice teachers with experienced music teachers with similar job placements. Through our mentor program you can get assistance with getting your students ready for contests and auditions, getting practical tips for a smooth running classroom and much more. Found below are the forms for music educators to volunteer to become a mentor and for South Dakota novice teachers to request a mentor.
