Thanks for the Fair Share update, Laurie. It's great (and no surprise) that Maine is at 125%, but I'm surprised NEOA isn't over 100%. What can we all do to help push NEAO over 100% and be #1, as we often were in the past? --Alan Parks Alan Parks On Thu, Jun 1, 2017 at 11:35 AM, - MEEOA-L - Maine Educational Opportunity Association members communication <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > As COE has always done in the past, COE is ready to take on the > challenge with the TRUMP Administration who announced last week that they > plan to eliminate the McNair Program and the Education Opportunity Centers. > Fair Share will help COE meet this new challenge. > > June 30, 2017 is the end of the 2017 Fair Share Drive and there is still > time to help COE exceed it budgeted goal.
