Teacher briefs: onboarding a new student

When a family enrolls a new student, Clear Day writes a short brief for the teacher whose classroom the child is joining: what is worth knowing on day one, pulled from the family's records. You read it, make sure it lands right, and send it on. The teacher sees nothing until you do.

Reviewing briefs is a director or admin job. Teachers read a brief once it has been sent.

Find your queue

• Web: open Teacher briefs. The page is headed "Drafts waiting for your review".
• App: on the Today screen, open the Teacher briefs tile.

A draft is created automatically when a student is enrolled. Each row shows the student, their classroom and the first lines of the draft. When the queue is empty you see No briefs waiting.

Review and send

1. Choose a student. The review screen opens under DRAFT FOR and the classroom name. In the app, it is titled Review brief.
2. Read the draft. Below it, Drew on: (web) or Sources: (app) tells you which records it used. Check the tone and the facts.
3. If something is off, choose Regenerate for a fresh version.
4. When it reads well, choose Send to teacher.

You get a confirmation that the teacher can now see the brief, and you are back at the queue.

Regenerating

In the app, both versions are kept. A DRAFT 1 / DRAFT 2 toggle lets you flip between them, and the screen says "Sunny drafted this from" the student's recent notes. On the web, Regenerate replaces the draft with no way back, so use it for a fresh take, not a small tweak.

In the app, if you see "Brief regeneration is temporarily turned off", Regenerate is unavailable for now. You can still send the draft you have.

What the teacher sees

Once you send it, the brief appears in the teacher's app as part of their onboarding for that student.
