Quality Working Group
Date:
Thursday, February 15, 1996 4:47PM
Peg and I know how busy you are, but we thought you might find next
weeks' Quality Program meeting an interesting one to attend. It will be
held at 2:00PM, Wednesday, February 21st. Our Program
Directors will be sharing their current methods of assisting programs
achieve high quality and/or how they select high quality grantees
in the quality areas we have collectively identified. In addition, they
want to have a discussion about how we should promote these standards of
quality. Frankly, some feel that revising the Quality document would be a
waste of effort (though it was important in our first year of operation) and
that we should simply collectively change our guidelines to reflect this new
common quality language. Others feel a different format would be appropriate
for promoting these quality values. Let me know if you can make it. Avelina
thought you might be free. We will be meeting for an hour.

To Whom It May Concern
The Commission on National Head Start Fellowships
Council for Early Childhood Professional Recognition, Inc.
2460 16th Street, N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20009-3575
Dear Sirs:
It is with great confidence that I recommend Ms. Susan Rohrbough for a position within
the National Head Start Fellows Program. Ms. Rohrbough would bring a wonderful blend
of practical program experience, tested state system-change leadership and unswerving
dedication to the children and families of Head Start. It is precisely this blend of
experienced leadership which has helped propel Ohio to its premier national position in
providing early childhood education services.
Please accept my responses to your seven questions.
1. How long and in what connection have you known the applicant?
I have known Ms. Rohrbough for four years. As the Director of Ohio's Head Start
Collaboration Project, I supervise her activities on behalf of Governor George V.
Voinovich.
I also am proud to count Susan as a wise friend.
2. What are the applicant's major strengths?
Far and away Ms. Rohrbough's key strength is her passion for children in need. This
passion guides all her professional decisions. She advocates, then she negotiates. Ms.
Rohrbough also is highly organized and is a fair, but firm, taskmaster.
3. What impact has the applicant had on his or her professional field?
In answering this question, I would point to two powerful messages Ms. Rohrbough has
conveyed to Ohio's Head Start community. As Ohio's state funding commitment to
Head Start grew from $18 million in SFY 1990-91 to this biennium's $154 million figure,
the task of guaranteeing the proper balance between expanding quickly to serve more
children and maintaining high quality standards fell squarely on Ms. Rohrbough's
shoulders. On many occasions, she waded into difficult situations. The sheer force of her
commitment to quality standards helped push through new state laws and administrative
monitoring procedures which now apply to both Head Start and Public Preschool.
National Head Start Fellowship Program
Page Two
The second, and perhaps more long-term, impact Ms. Rohrbough has had on her
professional field addresses how Head Start views itself and its relationship within the
larger early childhood education system. She has helped Head Start professionals to think
of themselves as part of this system. This ongoing evolution is key to Ohio's school
readiness effort. Through her leadership, Head Start professionals are embracing our
Ohio Early Start infant and toddler program. They're also partnering with child care
programs and playing a much more active role in kindergarten transitioning. As the rest of
the nation focuses on budget cuts and building a wall around Head Start, Ms. Rohrbough
has helped Ohio think about building bridges between Head Start and other relevant family
programs. She is helping her profession to think about a continuum of development as
well as leading other programs to embrace the core values which have made Head Start a
model worth emulating.
4. What impact has this individual had in the community, outside his or her professional
realm?
Ms. Rohrbough has a long history of civic involvement. Quite frankly, I have urged her to
slow down a bit outside the job these past years. The incredibly difficult agenda she must
pursue at the office can be personally draining. Despite my urging that Ms. Rohrbough
spend a little more of her leisure time in leisure, I think her application details her
continued involvement with others seeking her assistance.
5. How would you describe this candidate's public speaking ability?
Over the past few years, Ms. Rohrbough has become a polished public speaker. She is
able to take difficult concepts and complex program nuances and convey them to
audiences in a practical manner.
6. How would you describe this candidate's leadership skills?
By asking Ms. Rohrbough to operate the Head Start Collaborative project from the
vantage of the Governor's Office, Ohio put a spotlight on the task at hand. By putting the
power and prestige of the Governor's Office behind Ms. Rohrbough, she was often asked
to negotiate difficult compromises between and among stakeholders in the fastest growing
early childhood education system in the nation. To ensure success for Head Start
families, she routinely helped devise solutions which were acceptable to children, families,
program staff, program administrators, state agency officials and a Governor and
legislature who were keeping a close eye on their investment.
The best testament to Ms. Rohrbough's leadership skills is the phenomenal success of our
programs. She has delivered program expansion, unparalleled service system integration,
and managed to maintain the respect and friendship of her colleagues. I envy her skills.
National Head Start Fellowship Program
Page Three
7. What would you expect this candidate to be doing in five years?
In the year 2001, I envision attending a "How-To" seminar being conducted by noted
author and practitioner Susan Rohrbough. I know there's a book in her soul just waiting
to be written. Everyone in America who cares about children and our nation's continued
economic and moral success will want to read this basic primer. I'm hoping for a free
autographed copy.
In closing, I highly recommend Ms. Rohrbough for a National Head Start Fellowship. My
only hesitation in making this recommendation is the realization that your gain will be my
loss. Susan has so much to share with others. She will not let you down.
Sincerely,
Jane Romduly

Subject: National NSSC Project Director Association Board Meetings
Date: Friday, January 26, 1996 4:16PM
Fran's out for several days and I want, in her stead, to give you an early alert. The three National Project
Director Associations (RSVP, FGP, & SCP) have scheduled their spring board meetings in late February.
They have requested a joint meeting with Corporation Officials on Monday, February 26 from about 1 to
3:00 p.m. A site has not been determined for the meeting. Additionally, there has been some discussion
with Melinda about the possibility of using the the Board's presence as a time to meet the commitment
made to involve them in a reauthorization discussion. Would you please block out your schedules from
about 1 - 5: p.m. on that day so we have the schedule flexibility to figure out the particulars of agenda
and representation. We will prepare the new schedule request forms early next week.
I believe this meeting to be very important. We need to consider this a key meeting since we have the
opportunity to communicate directly, at an importnat time with the Association Board representatives from
across the country - about 45 elected NSSC project director representatives. This is an opportunity to
communicate Corporation interests, further collaborative strategies, and to strenghten support from this
constitutiency as we continue to confront budget and re-authorization issues. It is important to keep in
mind that they already have had extensive discussion about re-authorization issues and will undoubtedly
advocate their perceived organizational interests. Thus, we should be ready to handle hard issues
exacerbaded by increasing levels of anxiety.
Upon Fran's return to the office on Monday, I recommend that she be the contact/coordinator for these
meetings. We will need to set up one or more strategy sessions to do adequate preparation for Corporate
participant presentations. NSSC will develop a proposed schedule and set of issue/background papers for
leadership's consideration.
If you have any questions, please let me know or feel free to contact Fran directly.

Today, Ted Tschuty ( an outside consultant) and I met to begin designing the
second meeting for the Delivery System Working Group. As you know, this
group of 8 Corporation State Office Directors and 8 State Commission
Directors will meet from March 11-12 in Kansas City to finalize
recommendations on various models for the Corporation's delivery system.
In order to bring Ted aboard, to seek your advice about this second meeting
in light of the current budget/political situation, and to hear your
reactions to the draft of the first meeting, we would like to set up brief
(15 minute) meetings with each of you next week, preferably on Tuesday the
27th or Wednesday the 28th. I'll be calling you or your secretaries to set
up
an exact time.
The importance and complexity of this working group's task did not escape
Ted nor myself as we planned on the phone today with Steve Schad, Nancy
Deaver and Zeke Rodriquez. By meeting with you soon, we will feel even more
confident that this next meeting will be as productive as possible.

Avelina -- please set up a meeting for early next week with Gretchen, Tracy, Meri, Diana L or KathPD, Ann C

Gretchen -- I think it makes sense for you to go to the PLC meeting discussed below, if you can.
From: Milton, Catherine
To: Sagawa, Shirley
Subject: Planning Process --- Next Steps
Date: Thursday, February 15, 1996 1:16PM
Priority: High
It was good to talk to you and AnnMaura today. Here is my understanding of the next steps that we agreed
to:
Shirley will arrange a conference call for next Tuesday with Harris, AnnMaura, Gretchen, PLC, and
any others she wants to include to discuss the options for a "fellowship" program that will be woven into a
proposal to Kellogg and Kaufman;
Based on this input, Catherine and the PLC will continue to do strategic planning with their two
programs (NSSE and Enviornment) to flush out the best ideas for funding proposals (in outline form). We
will invite Gretchen to attend these sessions which will take place Wed. and part of Thurs. next week and
will figure out ways to involve AnnMaura at the appropriate times by phone;
Gretchen will convene ASAP the AmeriCorps Leaders, VISTA Leaders and PLC (by phone ) to lay
out the options for going ahead with one single "leadership" proposal. We will also discuss with these
parties the possiblity of including other partners (POLF and YSA) which would be done in another meeting.
I
just got a strange letter from Roger which I am faxing to you and based on this I recommend working only
with POLF and not him.
Lisa and Kevin will be in DC on March 11 to work with Meri and Julie. Catherine will be on the East
Coast and for a little bit of extra money could participate there in a planning meeting with the key partners
if it makes sense. Other options: Either Lisa or Kevin and I could come there on March 18. Finally, Harris
is supposed to give a big speech in the Bay Area the week of March 18 and I want to invite him to spend a
few hours with the staff of the PLC so we can discuss the future options with him (obviously we would
prefer to have you here at the same time but am assuming that is not practical.)
Is this all ok?
Shall I call Harris today and tell him my plans, that you and I are working closely to plan for a strong future
for the PLC (involving him by phone and perhaps in person in DC) and invite him to vist while he is in
SF?????

Good morning!
Hope you both were able to take advantage of the beautiful weather this past
weekend. When you have a chance, it would probably be a good thing for me to
update you on "my take" on my trip to San Francisco. I know that Catherine
called and left a message for either one or both of you after our meeting
with Tom Ehrlich on Friday afternoon and so you both know she is planning to
come here this Thursday. Also, Tom called my office voice mail on Sunday to
say that he talked to Harris (I presume over the weekend?) and Harris was
very supportive. I don't think the update will take more than a half an
hour. When you both have a chance
