Teachers,
The WALK-A-PALOOZA kicks off soon! You and your students are going to have a blast!
As a teacher, you play a HUGE role in our school’s financial success. This program is extremely easy on teachers, but we do need your help with a few fun things throughout the program. If you have questions or missed the faculty meeting, please see Mrs. LaSala, Mrs. Gravina or Mrs. Spradlin.
3 Action Steps for a Successful Program (save this email as a reference):
1. Check your Teacher Dashboard on FUNRUN.COM, daily!
- Use your class Pledge-O-Meter to track your class’ pledging progress.
- View Team Pledge Reports to see which students have registered and which have made a pledge. Use this report to update your class Pledge-O-Meter each day to ensure your students are being rewarded throughout the program for their hard work!
2. Communicate with your classroom parents!
- Use the email templates found on your Teacher Dashboard to update your classroom parents with your class’ progress. Be sure to add your own personalization and a class update to these emails!
3. Promote pledging, daily!
- Celebrate students and your class for getting pledges and motivate them to the next level on your Pledge-O-Meter.
- Remind students each afternoon before dismissal of the NEW nightly pledge challenge.
Have FUN with your students each day of the program! Thank you for your support of this year’s WALK-A-PALOOZA!
