Name; Liz Everett, computer resource teacher

NEA local affiliate: Chesapeake (Virginia) Education Association

Exracuroicular activity: CEA and state Association board member

Current Project: At the start of the school year, with just 10-15 minutes of work a week, Everett helped put new teachers on track-and build the Association. Each week Everett wired survival tips to the newbies on topics like classroom organization and student behavior, all very appreciated by the recipients.

Those interested in joining the Association were visited by Association reps, enrolled, and encouraged to sign up for Works4Me, NEA's weekly teaching tip E-mail newsletter.

Everett is now evaluating her approach's effectiveness as an Association organizing tool. To contact Liz Everett, send an E-mail to Lizjazzcat@aol.com.
