    bulletMEAP ACCREDITATION: Discussion of the new State standards that will be use for accreditation. This information is being shared with each individual building so that all teachers understand the new plan.
    bulletKEYBOARDING: There was some misunderstanding that the instruction would come from TRT’s. The intent was for the TRT to begin the program and have the classroom teachers take over. Some teachers felt they needed more training before having to implement the program. Kay will talk with Rick Wood to coordinate training.
    bulletGOVERNOR’S GRANT FOR COMPUTERS: The language is attached. People are wondering how this will be implemented in the District. The State is going to determine what computers will be purchased. More information will go out to teachers as soon as the details from the State are clarified.
