Evidence of STLP Involvement for Requesting Gold Status

STLP groups should apply for Gold Status if it is their first time requesting Gold Status, if they achieved Silver Status last year, or if the STLP missed a year of Gold Status by failing to submit to retain Gold Status from the previous year.

Step 1: Submit your STLP to the Get Recognized database

Step 2:  Using the criteria below (and found in the rubric via the Super Sheet),  create an electronic presentation documenting what the STLP is doing.  Schools may use any method they choose to create the presentation – get creative or keep it simple.  The only technical requirement is that the presentation must be viewable online (or is downloadable) and can be reviewed by judging committee using readily available devices  (i.e. no special software is required).

The major components of evidence to be documented include (from rubric):

• targeting the STLP mission and goals
• describing types of STLP projects/events from the year
• detailing recruitment efforts
• describing the communication avenues used to generate school/community awareness of STLP opportunities & accomplishments
• stating the vision/purpose/goals of your STLP
• discussing how the STLP represents your school outside of the building

Step 3: Identify and explain how your STLP earned at least 7 STLP Level Up badges during the current year.

Step 4: Provide short description of how your students have acted as representatives of STLP during the current year.

Your presentation URL will need to be submitted with this form. That URL should not link to any password protected webpages.  Like STLP, these presentation are always best when they are student designed and student driven.  All presentation should follow good digital citizenship guidelines, contain NO personally identifiable information about students, and follow all pertinent copyright requirements.
