Extractions: New Information on SFSP Geo-Mapping Technology When school lets out, millions of low-income children lose access to the school breakfasts, lunches and afterschool snacks they receive during the regular school year. The Summer Food Service Program for Children is a key to filling this gap. The Summer Food Service Program provides meals and snacks to children who might otherwise go hungry and is often provided in conjunction with educational, developmental, and recreational activities. With more parents working outside the home, organizations are serving school-age children afterschool as well as during the summer. History The Summer Food Service Program for Children (SFSP) was created by Congress in 1968. It is an entitlement program designed to provide funds for eligible sponsoring organizations to serve nutritious meals to low-income children when school is not in session. Benefits The SFSP feeds hungry children in the summer, gives a boost to public and private non-profit summer programs, and helps give low-income children the best start on the new school year. Many of the children served are at nutritional risk when they do not have access to school meals.

Extractions: Learn More About the Alaska SeaLife Center With 33,000 miles of coastline and an abundance of marine resources, Alaska offers an incredible living laboratory for marine scientists who conduct field research. The Alaska SeaLife Center (ASLC) opened in May 1998, providing a modern research and wildlife rehabilitation facility with a collection of resident marine animals where scientists can conduct controlled s tudies. Operating a designated marine mammal "Stranding Center" within a marine research facility allows scientists to learn a great deal about these animals during the rehabilitation process, and now teachers and students can capitalize on this relationship! Project MASTER also provides access to references and links to federal agencies such as National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and other outside researchers who use satellite telemetry to study the marine ecosystem of the north Pacific. The curriculum links include information on Native use of marine resources, and how Alaska Natives have worked with marine scientists to help sustain animal population and keep cultural traditions alive.

About NWREL's Comprehensive School Reform Demonstration Project NWREL is working with schools in alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon Each state education agency received copies NWREL s Web site at http//www.nwrel.org/scpd/catalog http://www.nwrel.org/csrdp/about.html
Extractions: About the CSRD Program Comprehensive school reform is a means to improve student achievement through reorganizing and revitalizing entire schools, rather than implementing isolated programs. It uses well-researched and well-documented models for schoolwide change that are supported by expert trainers and facilitators. Challenging academic standards, strong professional development, and meaningful parent and community support are all part of a comprehensive school reform program. The Comprehensive School Reform Demonstration (CSRD) program is part of the FY1998 Labor-HHS-Education Appropriations Act. Sponsored by Congressmen David R. Obey (WI) and John E. Porter (IL), the CSRD Program provides funding to help schools adopt effective, research-based comprehensive school reform models that will help all students reach high standards. The program makes funds available to state education agencies to provide competitive incentive grants to districts for schools pursuing comprehensive reform. Of these funds, a significant portion is earmarked for Title I schools and the remaining funds may go to any school under the Fund for the Improvement of Education. Nationwide, up to 3,000 schools may be eligible for grants of no less than $50,000 (renewable for two years).
