Contests:

Personal relevance of topics can help give students advocacy / venting

Maximize coach involvement in the prep for essay/speech contests

How minimize coach burnout while demanding more of coaches?

Text based engagement / moving away from set Zoom times

Agendas pre-prepared - prioritize SEL content to ensure that its included

Online platforms to facilitate student interaction - slack, discord (allows students to share memes / check in on each other) - keeping in mind liability / best practice for student safety

prompts that can be posted by coaches to facilitate conversation along SEL lines:

contest oriented

prep oriented

personal welfare oriented - having coaches show that they care / are here to listen, have coaches sharing resources for students experiencing tough times (school district or welfare dept) - that addresses things like student welfare

things like "meeting student needs" - we can't feed them or ask coaches to do that - we should consolidate and broadcast resources for student who need help finding help

show coaches memes to share

Forums need to be monitored
