Hear from Curtis Fee, Head of Lower School at Phoenix Country Day, about how Folio has helped foster a culture of collaboration on his team.

***What is your school’s Folio success story?***

\[0:27\] Curtis shares how he creates small moments for reflection and celebration, by dedicating 3 minutes at the beginning of his faculty meetings to send a Spotlight or complete a Mindful Minute.

\[2:57\]  Curtis uses Folio’s Custom Observation form feature for informal observations to share highlights and feedback with faculty and give faculty space for their own reflection.

\[7:43\] ***What advice do you have for other school leaders?*** Start small when introducing Folio and take a measured approach to introducing new processes and features.

\[9:27\] ***In 5 words or less, describe how Folio has impacted your school.*** Focused. Supportive. Interactive. Collaborative. Synergistic.
