  38. CAS Process 2… After activity is over---upload evidence (journal, photos, blog, scanned documents) of your activity on to ManageBac. Be sure to REFLECT, by answering answer CAS questions on ManabeBac Reflections tab. Request supervisor evaluation through ManageBac AFTER activity is complete, CAS questions answered, and Reflections are done--- otherwise ManageBac will lock you out of that activity. Check ManageBac to see if supervisor reviews post. Valid supervisor reviews are a non-negotiable. Seniors need them in by January 31. Activities that have no supervisor reviews will need to be deleted. See your advisors for help… main problem is late supervisor reviews…. avoid this… communicate with your supervisors!
