programs listed broken out by:
 Staff Meeting Agendas
 Policy Changes
 Monthly Goals
 It is imporant to submit this information to
Larisa Rabina weekly to be uploaded to the

Effective Communication
 Watch your tone. When you speak, it's easy to adjust
your tone and gauge another's reaction. When you
write in an email, tone can be taken more than one way
if you don't carefully choose your words. Strive to be
respectful, friendly and approachable. If in doubt at all,
read over your finished email several times to make
sure you're giving the impression you intend to.
 Avoid writing in uppercase letters. It gives the effect
that you are yelling or shouting your entire thought.
 Be brief. Make your point as concisely as you can.
Many people receive large amounts of e-mail each day.
If you want a quick response, you must limit the length
of your content.
 Use your spell-check one last time before hitting
"send."
