Our Expectations for TeachStart Fellows

As a TeachStart Fellow, I promise to uphold the highest form of professionalism and dedication to creating exceptional experiences in education.

Uphold Scoot’s mission and culture of “creating exceptional experiences in education”
Demonstrate a strong sense of belief that my teaching can positively impact lives
Act proactively, show adaptability and flexibility when faced with challenges
Treat Scoot Education and it’s services as a partnership
Respect confidential information
Exhibit excellent communication (i.e., call if running late, respond to emails/calls in a timely manner, notify Scoot of alternative employment)
Consult with Scoot if I have any question, doubt, or need clarification
Record all of my time worked properly and notify a Scoot consultant if I have any questions regarding my pay
Notify Scoot if my employment status changes
Attend mandatory Fellow trainings that are required for my pathway
Abide by the terms and conditions of my employment agreement with Scoot Education

Keep Scoot informed of weekly availability - Your normal work week will consist of 40 hours of work per week. In the event you are not assigned a substitute assignment on any particular day, you are expected to use eight hours that day for training and study. (if you are a Scoot Scholar+ Fellow, you will mark every second Wednesday off to attend mandatory trainings, unless otherwise instructed)
Accept each substitute position that Scoot requests you to take on within one hour travel distance of your home so that you are substituting full-time
Inform Scoot before 7pm/6am if I have to cancel an assignment (Fellows will accrue sick days that you can use for these cases)
Raise issues and concerns directly with Scoot (and handle them with integrity)
Arrive on time and prepared (ie: reviewing map and directions); immediately contact Scoot if running late
Treat all staff with respect; greet, introduce myself and demonstrate a passion for education
