Members of the recent Leadiership Fort Meade group included, front from left: executive director Priscilla Perry, Debi Zakany, Sherry Warren, Barbary Manley, Renee Blackwelder, and chairman Melony Bell. Back row from left: Mark Talbott, Sgt. Casey Riley, Will Hodge and Jeff Hancock.
Individually, they were all leaders long before joining the inaugural class of Leadership Fort Meade.
Collectively, the group pledged last week to work to bring a career academy to Fort Meade Middle Senior High School, helping to develop an academic offering here that mirrors what many other high schools in Polk already have.
