Principal Report– William Crockett
ADHS has many reports and all have been positive for the school year. He attributes the Alliance for a part of that success. Suggests that after communicating to faculty about the Alliance, ask faculty & students what do you need from Alliance?

Wayne Tindle
The two areas that scored least on the Benchmark of Excellence were commitment and passion. Wayne shared that the most passionate projects through the years were always new ideas. He recommends that the Alliance look at a large project for the new year that will incorporate all members. This will result in building relationships within the Alliance and with ADHS faculty and students. Possibilities discussed included a student leadership skill training program or perhaps a life skills program that incorporates leadership, presentation, financial skills and others.
