The Written Annual Report

The written report is the first impression the judges get of your year's work.  Make your report easy to follow by clearly identifying sections with the corresponding judging criteria.  Samples of annual reports can be downloaded by going to:

http://sageglobal.org

Suggestion: make sure someone who is very fluent in English proofreads and edits your report.  A SAGE consultant or mentor available by e-mail can tell you whether your report would need editing, after which somebody at your school or in your community would proofread.

Written annual reports are limited to a total of four (4) printed pages on 8 ½ by 11 paper (or two pages front to back). If your team uses a cover or back page it will count as one of those four pages.

You may also insert or attach copies of any newspaper coverage you receive from any of your activities. It would be helpful for the growth and prestige of our organization if SAGE is mentioned in the article. You may also attach sample newsletters and photos of billboards, etc.

Your team has two options in terms of the number of annual reports to bring to the competition.

    1. You may bring 5 copies of your team’s annual report to be given to the SAGE staff for filing purposes; or
    2. You may bring 50 copies of your team’s annual report to be handed out to the SAGE judges

 

During the five minute setup period, we urge your team to display the annual report on the computer projection screen, one page at a time, so that judges and other audience members can see the report.
