[rtpnet-tact] Anyone working with Community Learning Partners of Wake County?

[Judy Hallman]

Is anyone on this list working with
Classy D. Preston and Community Learning Partners of Wake County?

It sounds like there is real progress being made in Raleigh, both with
funding and getting volunteers.

But, here is one paragraph from it:

 The group is also in the process of developing a computer-training
 curriculum to teach students such skills as how to perform Internet
 research, create spreadsheets and prepare power-point presentations.
 Although many schools offer students some exposure to computers, Preston
 said she isn't aware of any that provide individualized tutoring or have
 a detailed curriculum specifically aimed to help at-risk children.

Someone on this list should be able to help them with their curriculum.

Side note: Birchwood Learning Center was founded in 1996, not 1999 (see
http://www.rtpnet.org/blc/history.html).
