Vanguard Work for 2018-19 School Year

This year we wanted to gamify the points system and make it a fun way to capture and celebrate the awesome work of this amazing team. Vanguard members will earn experience points (XP) for doing the work of a Vanguardian and have the opportunity to level up and earn badges. We will be celebrating the work as you submit it in a variety of ways.

Yearly Points: 50 Points from any category of the Vanguard 4 pillars

In addition to earning points for Vanguard Sponsored activities, you can also earn points for any self-initiated activity at your school that supports one of the 4 pillars!

• The intention is for XP to be a way to celebrate the work of Vanguard and have members be reflective about how the work they do connects to the 4 pillars.
• Those of you who attended the Kickoff event (and signed in) have already earned 15 XP, plus your 10 point bonus, for a total of 25 XP!!!
