Lou's April Newsletter
3 Months until camp!
Lou's Spring Message
I am so excited to be working with you all this summer. Each and everyone of you bring something special to the team and I can't wait for you to all share your skills, talent, and excellence with the campers this summer.
In this newsletter I will cover the following:
Staff Corner: The hub for everythign you need to know this summer
Timeline: What is comming up
RST
Reminders
Super fun survey
Contact info
A surprise video!?
I have a lot to update you on so sit back , relax, and get ready. Here we go!
STAFF CORNER
It's Alive! Alive!
Forums: This is where you guys can get to know each other before camp. When you get a moment jump on there and say hello to your fellow staff members. It is also a great place to get some camp tips and tricks.
Game Plan: The curriculum! Based on our previous discussions you will have access to certain curriculum on game plan. They are very comprehensive and go from beginner to advanced material. There is information on the site on how to get access to software so you can study, how to teach certain topics, and much much more. Get comfortable with what you will be teaching this summer. - Note if you are missing a curriculum that you thought you were teaching shoot me an email so I can add it ASAP.
*** At this point in the newsletter it is common for managers to tell their staff to make sure they get their paperwork in or they will not have access to staff corner or be put on the schedule... You all are on top of your paperwork. That makes us the one of the only teams in the whole of iD Tech to have ever done that. So well done all of you!!!!!!
