When the submission is received, your points will be automatically assigned. If there are questions or concerns after being reviewed by a learning community lead, you will be contacted, and your points will potentially be adjusted.

These deadlines are REQUIRED for each submission period. If you have missed the submission deadline, please contact your learning community leads for additional information. Aside from prolonged absences due to medical leave, late submissions will most likely not be accepted.

The activities listed below are not all inclusive. We will continue to add items to this list to give everyone flexibility in coaching, while keeping accountability. These activities apply to all members, regardless of your position in Fulton.
