What’s one bright spot or win from your week so far?

What’s something you’re looking forward to in the next few days?

• Does this SMARTIE goal and action plan clearly define what success looks like—and is each step specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, time-bound, inclusive, and equitable?

We want to learn:

• Where do we see gaps in accessibility (language, format, timing)?
• What practices are working well that we should keep or scale?
• What barriers are preventing consistent communication—and what is within our control to fix this year?
• What improvements should we prioritize for December–February?

• What would make a tradition meaningful, sustainable, and student-centered?
• Who needs to be involved in the decision-making and planning?
