MINUTES from 9 October 2014
The second meeting of the 2014-2016 Gamma
Chapter biennium began with a time of food and
fellowship in LeAnn Smith’s classroom at Clarkdale
School.
The program, Instruction in the 21st Century, was
presented next by LeAnn Smith. Multiple
electronic resources currently being used in the
classroom were demonstrated including Nearpod,
Remind, Marqueed, Wikispaces, Prezi, iTunes U,
Socrative, and Edmodo. Using her smartboard,
Mrs. Smith showed us the programs and sites and
explained how she incorporates them into her
instruction to increase student interest and to
maintain better contact with parents and students.
After the program concluded, Janet Berg called the
meeting to order, and Kim Brown read the Gamma
Chapter Collect. Following this, Shauna Waters
presented minutes from the September meeting. No
additions or corrections were indicated. Cheryl
Thomas then presented the Treasurer’s Report for
October and a corrected statement for September.
Janet then updated us on the website redesign. Due
to continuing concern about copyright issues, the
GammaGram link has been completely removed
from the site. Instead of the full GammaGram
being online, meeting minutes and pictures will
appear. Anyone needing an additional copy or back
issue of a GammaGram may contact Janet.
Miscellaneous reminders and announcements
followed. Member updates were given, including
information on several members with illness or
special needs. The members of the Personal Growth
Committee were reminded that the selection of the
Red Rose recipient for this year must be completed
by the fifteenth of the month. Additionally, Grant-
in-Aid recommendations need to be completed by
the twentieth. Janet informed us that the Meridian
ADK chapter has accepted our invitation to attend
one of our meetings and will join us at the
Courthouse Annex in February. They have issued a
reciprocal invitation to their scholarship tea in May.
A reminder of the Leadership Management
Seminar was given with more information to follow
soon. Cheryl read a letter of resignation from
Teresa Mikell which was regretfully accepted by the
membership.
The date and location of the next meeting –
Saturday, November 8 at Merrehope – were
announced where the society will celebrate the
Birthday Brunch with our guest speaker Nancy Jay,
Zeta State President. The cost for this special event
is $20, and confirmation ahead of time is needed to
provide an accurate headcount for the meal. The
meeting was then adjourned.
