<strong>The</strong> purpose of this meeting will be to inform all the other grant directors, coordinators, and DPI liaisons<br />
about major activities taking place this year as part of each of the statewide grant programs. One person<br />
from each grant program will be designated to give a 10-to-15 minute presentation. <strong>The</strong> information<br />
shared during this meeting will not be an introduction to your grant program; rather, you will be<br />
highlighting activities you believe other grant staff should know about for <strong>2012</strong>-13.<br />
<strong>The</strong> meeting will be approximately 2.5 hours. Due to the number of presentations, we won’t have time<br />
for questions, but follow up conversations are encouraged. We hope you will be able commit to<br />
listening in to all or most of this meeting. A confirmation of the date, detailed agenda, and a Go To<br />
Meeting Invitation with instructions will be sent out to everyone by the end of next week.
<strong>The</strong> following IDEA Discretionary Grants will be giving updates, with those individuals presenting in<br />
parentheses:<br />
