Truby, William
This paper contains a summary of a Strategic Planning experience that used the AdvancEd Perfonnance Standards as its overarching basis for structure and implementation. The intended goal of the school district involved with this activity was to create one document from which all required reports for agencies of accountability could be addressed. A review of Strategic Planning, AdvancEd and State Standards, and some details about the district's plan and success are included in this paper.
The target audience for this paper includes leaders in education, especially those employed in the central office and school buildings. School boards, superintendents, principals, and others entrusted with the vision, direction and future of educational organizations. Because of the fundamental aspects of the material covered, leaders in other fields of work may find the infonnation helpful and applicable to their career choices.

Marsh, Christan
This presentation focuses on the effect learning a second language (L2) has on cognition. The studies presented in this poster session investigated the influence of the L2 on thought and the benefits of being bilingual. The main foci of these studies are the effects of two languages on comprehension, production, and processing and the organization of the bilingual memory. Implications of the findings of these studies include the activation of two lexicons, negative interference of the first language (L1) with L2, and the access of linguistic knowledge in the working memory. The purpose of this presentation is to encourage further research on bilingualism and the effects of an L2 on a learner’s general cognition. This poster presentation provides annotated bibliographies of five research articles that investigated the effects of bilingualism on cognition. In addition, a list of practical implications from these studies, key terms, visual aids, and references are included.

American public school resegregation is a rarely discussed reality, as are the origins and effects of desegregated public schools. This qualitative portraiture study examined segregated and desegregated public schools in rural Early County, Georgia, from 1960-1981 to give a more complete accounting of the time.
