Review Action Register - Amy Walker

Work Team Breakout Sessions
Each team was asked to review original plans set at the beginning of the year, identify those to be completed and those that may need to be dropped or postponed until the next school year. Each group reported to the entire group following their breakout sessions.

• Technology - Will be providing Website support
• Communications - Alliance Notes currently being developed. Will provide information on the Alliance to be distributed on the ListServ and included on the Alliance website.
• Career Development - Wants to begin the student survey program during lunch periods.
• Staff Development - Tabling Train-the-Trainer-Training due to block scheduling. Desire to have teachers participate in tours of Baldridge organizations. Unfortunately teachers did not relate to the Baldridge application in private business. Did visit a High School, but ineffective due to small number of teacher participants. Requested time during March Alliance meeting to cover Blackboard software. Also, will survey teachers to identify needs.
• Membership - Will be meeting with potential financial member.

Next Alliance meeting will be held Friday, March 19th at Western WakeMed, pending verification from Kelly.
