MORE THINGS TO SHOUT ABOUT!!

NOTES FROM KB

Welcome to Janeen Graham!!

We are delighted to welcome Ms. Graham to the TF family. Working part-time with the office, Ms. Graham is located in the Ed Lab across from the TF office. If you get a chance, stop by to welcome her and introduce yourself.

The report is done!! The report is done!!

I want to thank you all for your support and encouragement as I worked on the Four-Year Evaluation Report over the past month. The report, a 110-page document, was mailed last Friday to the Raleigh office. It is a compre-hensive look at the UNCW TF program and it reflects very well on the fine work you all do. I look forward to the visit later this month. I can’t wait for the TF Commissioners to meet with you!

Want to share your thoughts about a TF activity or summer enrichment? We are always looking for articles written by our Fellows. Think about becoming one of our "Guest Columnists". Send your article to our TF Newsletter Editor, Jennifer Wester at jnw0791@uncwil.edu
