§  Contacting Tom Diekle – get items published in our local newspaper, PLG-13, Nelson County Gazette

§  Look at next steps that were submitted last year.

§  Curriculum Collaboration – documentation to show collaboration between general teacher and specials teachers.

§  November 18^th – Math and Literacy Night

§  February – Megan is possibly going to create a Family Literacy Night for her leadership project

o    We also talked about ways to collect data. The following items were discussed:

§  Setting up a one drive where one member of the committee will collect data for their grade level or allow all staff to submit evidence.

§  Having an area in the school where all teachers can submit evidence and the program review committee will meet, record, and upload evidence.

§  Data collection needs to be a constant.
