FIRST SEMESTER MENTOR STIPENDS

Beginning January 2, 2022, mentors will be able to request payment for their fall semester of mentoring. The deadline to receive the request form in our office is February 18, 2022.  Payments cannot be processed for mentor payment request forms that are received even one day after the deadline. It is the mentor's responsibility to ensure that the request forms receive our office on or before the deadline.  Payment forms for the first semester will be available for download through PDO on January 2, 2022.  Mentors should complete this form and submit it through PDO. In addition to the online submission, all mentors must print, sign, obtain their administrator's signature, and PONY to Ms. Emily Jimenez at 45 W. Gude Dr. Suite 2400. (Note: This hard copy submission must be in by February 18, 2022). Submission of both forms are required to receive the stipend.

Payments are as follows: 

  • $25/hour – mentors who log less than 12 hours  
  • $400 – mentors who log 12 hours or more for the semester and have successfully completed TOT-02 
  • $300 – mentors who log 12 hours or more for the semester but have not completed TOT-02 

To receive payment mentors need to request payment through PDO and submit a printed payment request form via pony. Directions are as follows:   

  • Click on your mentoring tab in PDO. 
  • Make sure you are in the correct semester and have entered all of your logs.
  • Go under Mentor Menu on the far left corner of the PDO frame.
  • Click on Request Payment.
  • Answer the questions, then click on Submit Payment Request.
  • The payment form screen or Acrobat equivalent will appear--follow the prompts.
  •  Complete the form and click submit.
  •  In addition to submitting the mentor payment request form on PDO, mentors must submit the Google Form in order to get compensated.
  • The form should be sent on or before the deadline, February 18, 2022 

Mentors who do not receive their stipend 4 weeks after February 18th should contact the New Teacher Induction Program at Emily_M_Jimenez@mcpsmd.org.
