Extractions: In North Carolina By Calvin L. Criner EDITOR'S NOTE: The following is part of a 1977 article written for Popular Government magazine. It was written prior to the 1979 legislation which de-regulated non-public schools. The author served for twenty-one years, until his retirement, as head of the State of North Carolina Division of Non-Public Schools. Information given in this article about 18th and 19th century North Carolina non-public schools was taken from the book North Carolina Schools and Academies 1790-1840, A Documentary History Article IX Section 1. Education shall be encouraged Religion, morality, and knowledge being necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind, schools and the means of education shall forever be encouraged. This statement in the North Carolina Constitution of 1868 contains two assumptions important for public and non-public schools. The first is that religion, morality and knowledge are essential to good government and the happiness of mankind. The second is that schools and the means of education will enhance religion, morality and knowledge. These assumptions reflected the states experience with schools during the previous century. They also strongly influenced public and non-public education for the next eighty years.

Ohio College Access Network (OCAN) Selected for Participation in National Initiative to Improve College-going Rates, Academic Success and Degree Completion of Students OCAN has been selected to participate in the McGraw-Hill Institute for Student Success and Academic Change (ISSAC) to be held on the Appalachian State University campus June 19-23, 2004. The Institute is an opportunity to bring together middle school, high school and higher education representatives in an effort to enhance the academic success and improve the college-going rate of students. During the Institute, invited teams made up of administrators, policy-makers, educators, and influential citizens will address national and local issues related to college access, recruitment, retention and degree completion. The Institute will provide time for participants to identify specific issues facing their students, schools, and institutions with regard to college access and admissions; and to plan efforts that will increase the number of underrepresented students entering and persisting in college. OCAN was founded in 1999 to establish college access programs across the state. Currently, 33 college access programs serve over 100,000 students in nearly 300 of Ohios 612 school districts, and 17 private parochial schools in 44 counties.

Extractions: October 2000 Mel's Comments Among the many challenges facing public education with which the federal government is attempting to assist local communities, special emphasis is being placed this year on two important initiatives. These initiatives are securing funding for 100,000 additional teachers to continue to reduce class size and securing funding to assist in building more classrooms and renovating aging and outdated schools. North Carolinas school enrollment increased by almost 22% over the last decade and class sizes are larger than ever. The inclusion of funding for 100,000 new teachers in this years budget would represent the second installment on a commitment made by this administration several years ago to reduce class size. From the 100,000 teachers funded in last years budget, North Carolina has received funding for 620 new teachers. We must continue these efforts and direct them at the most vulnerable children, those performing below grade level, because all the studies confirm that smaller classes translate into higher achievement.

Bear Left!: Jesse Helms: The Personification Of Ignorance Whites fled to the suburbs in droves or sent their kids to parochial schools in the suburbs that The retirement of Jesse Helms in north carolina is a good thing http://www.bear-left.com/original/2001/0826helms.html
Extractions: 26 August 2001 Jesse Helms, the personification of ignorance, has announced his retirement. According to the political pundits, Helms's retirement is one small step for man and one giant leap for North Carolina. This event is hardly the equivalent of walking on the moon. The ignorance Helms representsincluding racism, homophobia, and a twisted nationalism that supports right-wing foreign dictatorshipswill not be extinguished with the retirement of one man. That ignorance can only be swept away by more pervasive change in North Carolina and in our country. Like all of us, Helms is a product of his environment and genetics. He reinforced his belief system by immersing himself with like-minded individuals and by joining or attending institutions with a narrow worldview. Born in Monroe, North Carolina in 1921 he attended public schools, a local junior college and a college in Winston-Salem. Unlike most United States senators, he is not a lawyer. He does hold an honorary Doctor of Law degree from Bob Jones University, a school notorious for its reactionary politics. Helms's career combined banking, media, and politics. He served as Executive Director of the North Carolina Bankers Association and started in the media as an editor of a Raleigh newspaper before switching to radio as Director of News and Programs for the Tobacco Radio Network. He was active in local politics and served on the Raleigh City Council. He was an assistant to two United States Senators, both Democrats. The year the Republicans first nominated Dwight Eisenhower for president, Helms acted as a media consultant for Georgia Democratic Senator Richard Russell's presidential campaign. For over a decade leading up to his run for the Senate, Helms wrote and read editorials for over 200 newspapers and 70 radio stations. Despite the opportunities to open his mind, Helms kept his shut.
