Mrs. Nealy’s Comments � � It’s been a quiet year and yet some how we have accomplished so much and grown stronger together. We have a new name and new Bylaws with a solid foundation with which to step into the future. To the students , thank you , because it is all about serving, guiding, and strengthening you into the future persons you will become. To the 60 Senior members graduating, remember your story is not over; this is just the beginning. Thank you for letting me share a line or two in the telling of your story. Ms. Wegner , you are a valued member of this Cha pter. Your friendship and professional guidance allows me to do for the students, with the degree of effort, what has been done. Many thanks go out to ASB Leadership, Administration, Superintendents, and the Board of Directors for their ongoing support.

Special Thank You �Mrs. Fish, thank you for your willingness to substitute long term. You added creativity and enrichment to our standard curriculum.

What does the change in name affect? � � Because the state charter was not fully bought into the national organization for over 15 years we lost Ed Code verbage and paid positions at the state level. Where we had 6 paid state personnel, we were cut to 3, and now 2 positions to over see curriculum, professional development, and student organization. However, because we are fully affiliated with the national organization, our members now have more competitive events and programs open to them with networking available across the nation in multiple career pathways.
