I. Committee Files
92 folder(s)
The committee files are organized into two subseries: Executive Committee and Teachers Advisory Committee. The Executive Committee files document the creation of the Georgia Project, including the original agreement between the University of Monterrey and the City of Dalton and Whitfield County schools. Also included in these files are memoranda, budgetary information, meeting minutes, and correspondence. The Teachers Advisory Committee (TAC), which reported to the Executive Committee, was comprised of teachers from Dalton and Whitfield schools. This committee was responsible for providing recommendations regarding the Summer Institute, Direct Instruction, and ESOL curriculum. The TAC files include memoranda, meeting minutes, correspondence, and notes. A. Executive Committee
Arranged chronologically, excluding the committee binders, which are grouped together, this subseries includes the founding documents of the Georgia Project and information regarding the overall progress of the program. The majority of this subseries is comprised of memoranda, meeting minutes, correspondence, and budgetary and funding information provided to the members of the committee from 1996 to 1999. There are several reports analyzing the need and role of the Georgia Project in Dalton and in the larger Georgia Hispanic and Latino communities. Of particular significance is the Monterrey Accord, establishing the relationship between the University of Monterrey and the City of Dalton Public Schools and Whitfield County Schools. The accord defines the goals and role of the Georgia Project in the partnership. box folder Request box I.1 1 [Georgia Project Committee, correspondence, clippings], [1996] I.1 2 Packets, [1996] I.1 3 Georgia Project Committee [correspondence and clippings], [1996-1998] I.1 4 Monterrey Accord, [1997] I.1 5 Needs Assessment of the Hispanic Community in Dalton, 1997 I.1 6 The Georgia Project [Binational attempt to reinvent a school district] (folder 1 of 2), [circa 1998] I.1 7 The Georgia Project [Binational attempt to reinvent a school district] (folder 2 of 2), [circa 1998] I.1 8 [Georgia Project deliverables], [1998] I.1 9 Adult, Community, and Workplace Education: A Working Document Janna Shadduck and Andrea Rocha, [1998] I.1 10 Adult, Community, and Workplace Education: A Working Document, 1998 March 27 I.1 11 Haynes expenditures research [restricted], [1999] I.1 12 Resignation [Mike Brown], 1998-1999 I.1 13 Language Instructors Cooperative ESOL, Monterrey, Immigrant, etc., [1999] I.1 14 Georgia Project Memos, [1999] I.1 15 [Meeting Minutes, Correspondence, and budget], [1999] I.1 16 [Meeting minutes and agendas], [1999] I.1 17 [Georgia Project, budget, Correspondence, Clippings] (folder 1 of 2), [1999] I.1 18 [Georgia Project, budget, Correspondence, Clippings] (folder 2 of 2), [1999] I.1 19 Memos and minutes: Erwin, [1999] I.1 20 Minutes, 1999 October 5 I.1 21 Next GP Committee Letter Enclosures, [1999-2000] I.1 22 Georgia Project Corporation Information, [1999-2002] I.1 23 Updated full packets, 2000 November I.1 24 Executive Committee Mtg.
