Your Summer with Folio

Hi there,

These next few weeks serve as a crucial opportunity to lay out your school's professional growth strategy for next year.

Our recent blog post, "Using the Eisenhower Matrix to Improve Your Team", includes tactical advice you can use today to ensure important professional development planning doesn't get put off until the last minute.

Remember the Folio Process Integration Planning document we shared during your End of Year Conversation? It is an invaluable roadmap to guide your myFolio usage as you develop and schedule your professional growth plans.

Our recent blog post, "Making Time for Feedback: Strategies for Busy School Leaders", explores the challenge of integrating effective coaching and feedback at schools with hectic schedules and lean administrative teams.
