Students in the Western New York Teacher Residency (WNYTR) graduate program are fast approaching their residency year. The WNYTR network of school partners were invited to campus on April 20 to meet each resident. School partners included: Buffalo Public Schools, West Buffalo Charter School, King Center Charter School, Elmwood Village Charter School and Stanley G. Falk School.
In a series of mini interviews, Cohort 5 residents learned what each school has to offer and school leaders were introduced to each resident’s unique background and qualifications.
This is one of several steps that WNY Teacher Residents complete prior to beginning their residency year, which includes touring partner schools, meeting school leaders and mentor teachers, and matching with a school after a rigorous review process.Â
The next WNYTR event will be Interview Day on April 27 for Cohort 6 applicants. This event will be held at Stanley Makowski, Buffalo Public School #99.
