The TST BOCES Regional School Success Team leads and supports school districts in their efforts to provide the best possible learning environment for every student. We help create a regional community where all our students are robustly included and affirmed, and every student achieves meaningful outcomes. Our work is research-informed, and our team is committed to continuing to use student-outcome data to improve our services.

Itinerant teachers and leaders
We offer itinerant services to school districts in need of part-time instructors. Itinerants are professional teachers and/or administrators who provide shared services to typically two or more districts. When a school district is unable to generate a full-time position, they may enter into a shared service agreement with another district with a similar need for part-time instruction by requesting that TST BOCES initiate a shared itinerant service.
TST BOCES serves as the employer and as such coordinates the recruiting, hiring, budgeting and supervision of the staff person to be shared by the requesting districts.
Itinerant professionals provide services in a variety of ways; some are in different districts on alternating days of the week, and others work in the morning in one district and in the afternoon in another. The terms and conditions for each program are determined by the New York State Education Department.
Itinerant services cannot be provided to teach the core academic subjects (English, Math, Science, or Social Studies). Our department currently offers itinerant service CO-SERS to component school districts in the areas of Art, English as a Second Language, Home and Careers/Business, Music, School Counseling, Language Teachers in Spanish and French, and Coordination of Curriculum.
