    North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching ANNUAL REPORT 2010–2011 Visionary Leadership: Past, Present, and Future Dr. M. Elaine Franklin has been tapped to be the executive director of the North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching. “Increasing teacher effectiveness is fundamental to improving public education in our state,” said Linda S. Suggs, chair of the NCCAT Board of Trustees. “Dr. Franklin is committed to delivering high-quality professional development programming for North Carolina’s educators, so they, in turn, can cultivate classrooms that are active, engaging, collaborative, experiential, and interdisciplinary.” The NCCAT Board of Trustees voted unanimously to appoint Franklin the new executive director. When Franklin took office on April 1, 2011, she became the fifth executive director of NCCAT since its creation in 1985. “I feel truly honored to be selected as the next executive director of NCCAT,” Franklin said. “This institution is one of the reasons that North Carolina is nationally regarded as a state that values education. The visionary leaders who founded NCCAT more than 25 years ago recognized that great teaching is essential to high-quality education. They saw the center as a way to identify the best teachers and retain them in the profession through programs that provide intellectual stimulation and renew a love of learning.” NCCAT BOARD OF TRUSTEES THE DEVELOPMENT Chair FOUNDatION OF NCCAT INC.

  • Lost Warrior the Ties That Bind
    1 2 Lost Warrior the Ties that Bind An oral family history By Larry Thomas 2005 3 Preface My name is Larry Noel Thomas. I am the oldest of my generation. This really all started when I was a kid listening to my Grandfather and his Brothers telling our family stories. In particular "Uncle Paul" (Earnest Paul) Thomas (the family story teller) who lived in Clinton, Louisiana and Uncle Jack who lives in Jackson, Mississippi told stories of where they come from and the many stories of our ancestors. Both these men were excellent storytellers. Growing up I had met Russell Thomas living in Montgomery County, Mississippi several times. His father was Lon Thomas son of Greenwood Thomas. When Uncle Paul died and was buried in Duck Hill, Mississippi, Uncle Russell gave my father a written record of his oral family history. Uncle Russell's account of our family history and Uncle Paul's accounts were identical. Lineage: (1) I, Larry Noel Thomas was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I am the oldest son of (2) Edmond Noel Thomas Jr. who was born in Montgomery County, Mississippi. Edmond married Patsy Walker, daughter of Burkie Walker and Marion Tinkle. Edmond was the son of (3) Edmond Noel Thomas who was born on 19 Jan 1907 in Duck Hill, Montgomery, Mississippi. He died on 14 Mar 1970 in Clinton, East Feliciana, Louisiana. Edmond married Mary Elizabeth Holmes, daughter of William Madison Holmes and Ada Beatrice Pierce in Memphis, Shelby, Tennessee. Edmond was the son of (4) John Marshall Thomas who was born on 12 Nov 1871 in Duck Hill, Montgomery, Mississippi.

  • Chapter 4, Watershed Management Areas
    CHATTAHOOCHEE-OCONEE NATIONAL FORESTS WATERSHED MANAGEMENT CHAPTER 4 AREAS USE OF WATERSHED WATERSHED MANAGEMENT AREAS MANAGEMENT AREAS AND HYDROLOGIC UNITS USE OF WATERSHED MANAGEMENT AREAS AND HYDROLOGIC UNITS Watershed Management Areas (WSMAs) identify areas delineated by boundaries of hydrologic units. Management direction for these areas is identified in the Forest Plan through Forestwide direction in Chapters 2 and 3, unless otherwise noted in the individual Watershed Management Areas. These areas are being identified for several reasons: 1. Provide a sense of place for forest users and Forest Service employees 2. Provide an analysis area common to the Forest Service and cooperating agencies for present and future analysis of watershed conditions 3. Provide a management unit which “nests” within a hierarchical system that can be used at various spatial scales The Watershed Management Areas coincide with hydrologic units as defined and delineated by the U.S. Geologic Survey (USGS). The National Forest System lands of the Chattahoochee-Oconee occur within 6 of the 14 major river basins of Georgia. Collectively these 6 basins drain 31,159 square miles or 52 percent of the state’s land area. Watersheds are the natural hydrologic boundaries for surface-water runoff. Since they are definable features on the landscape, they are broadly used as spatial boundaries for investigations of surface-water resources (Maxwell, et. al., 1995). Watersheds throughout the United States have been defined by the USGS and are used by the U.S. Water Resources Council and other agencies for comprehensive planning and investigations. Larger watersheds contain smaller watersheds nested within the larger area.

  • North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching ANNUAL REPORT
    North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching ANNUAL REPORT 08 –09 North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching Dear Friends of NCCAT, To say these are challenging economic times would be an understatement. This past fiscal year has been marked by economic crises, budget deficits, financial cuts, market losses, and furloughs. And while North Carolina suffers one of the highest unemployment rates in the nation (11 percent as of June 2009), our legislators dealt with a potential budget shortfall of more than $3.4 billion in fiscal year 2009–2010. For many of us, the current economic situation is truly unprecedented. Despite this stressful economic background and shrinking budgets, the North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching has continued to do what it does best—support the teachers of North Carolina. Soundly. Assuredly. Unequivocally. We remain faithful to our mission to advance teaching as an art and a profession. Our goal is to support and retain the caring, highly qualified, and skilled educators needed in North Carolina’s classrooms.
