Genuine Connections with Students
One that stood out to me was the "video postcard." Video postcards are just short little videos of yourself outside of school, doing your outside of school activities (gardening, cooking dinner, taking the dog for a walk, etc.), just to let students know you are thinking about them. You could post this in Canvas for everyone or just one class at a time. I thought this was a fun way to connect during a time when connecting is difficult.
Attendance
nexgen appraisal system training
You need to view the slides of this powerpoint and sign that you have been trained in Eduphoria. New folks should have received their initial training during New Teacher Orientation.

Goals Due in Eduphoria
Part of the NexGen Appraisal System is setting goals for this school year.
Your goals can reflect support of these goals AND/OR something that you feel as a teacher needs your focus this school year:
Campus Goals for This Year:
Emphasis area 1:
- Increasing student engagement levels and time on task reflected through walkthrough data
Emphasis Area 2:
- 97% or better average daily attendance rate.
Emphasis Area 3:
- 90% or better passing rates with all sub pops on STAAR testing
Ask your team leaders for help on how to access this in Eduphoria. It is in the Strive function.
