For the latest information from the ACLU, go to http://www.aclu.org TO: Interested Parties FROM: Robert S. Peck, Legislative Counsel DATE: January 22, 1992 RE: Private School Choice Demonstration Amendment The proposed school choice demonstration amendment to S. 2 would permit states to include private and parochial schools as "choice schools," notwithstanding contrary provisions of state law. While this effectively preempts state law after the Secretary of Education awards grants for the demonstration projects, it does not and cannot do so before an award is made. Therefore, a number of states, operating under state constitutions that prohibit the public funding of sectarian schools or institutions, are ineligible to apply for the grants. A government has only the power and authority granted to it by the people through a constitution. This is the foundation of a nation that observes "the rule of law." Just as the authority of the federal government is limited by the powers granted and denied by the federal Constitution, the authority of the state governments are limited by the powers granted and denied by their respective state constitutions. Where a state constitution prohibits public funding of sectarian institutions, the state would violate its constitution when it applied for the grant program contemplated by the choice demonstration amendment because it would exceed its constitutional authority. Thus, the following states are constitutionally inhibited from participating in the choice demonstration and cannot benefit from the amendment under consideration:
Extractions: Health Promotion Schools of Excellence Overview What is Health Promotion Schools of Excellence? Health Promotion Schools of Excellence (HPSE) is a school-based program designed to promote Coordinated School Health. The mission of HPSE is to promote and maintain healthy lifestyles for students, staff and parents. The goals of HPSE schools selected to be in the program are as follows: P Adopt healthy lifestyles related to areas such as: cardiovascular disease, cancer control, injury prevention and physical fitness P Improve their health knowledge, attitudes, skills and behaviors of students, staff and parents P Meet all basic school health guidelines in accordance with Kentucky State Law The History of HPSE In 1991, the Jefferson County Medical Societys sub-committee on health education met to determine a way to reduce health risks among the children of Jefferson County. Seeing a lack of emphasis on school health, this group decided to develop a program that would encourage Coordinated School Health in local schools. This committee was composed of representatives from the Jefferson County Medical Society (JCMS) as well as the Jefferson County Public Schools (JCPS) and the Jefferson County Health Department along with various community representatives. Using Healthy People 2000: National Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Objectives as a guide for the outcome goals of HPSE, a school based program emerged. Currently

Extractions: Books Magazines Music Maps Out of Print Books British Books British Magazines British Music Keywords: President Bill Clinton has called for a "national crusade" on education. Naturally, that means spending more money: he would have Washington hire teachers and build schools. Many states, flush with cash, also plan to spend more. But the problem of education is monopoly, not money. Average SAT scores dropped from 980 to 899 between 1963 and 1992, while real per-pupil spending rose 160 percent. In fact, real spending per pupil has risen 40 percent a decade since World War II. The past decade of "reforms" has changed nothing. The 1994 National Assessment of Education Progress (NAEP) test found that 36 percent of fourth graders, 39 percent of eighth graders, and 57 percent of 12th graders failed to meet basic history standards. In most other subjects students perform poorly, and, incredibly, do worse the longer they stay in school. Last year the journal Education Week called America's public schools "rife with mediocrity," reporting that "there is no state in which at least half the students perform at the 'proficient' level or above." It refused to give the states grades based on their NAEP results, since "all would have failed." International comparisons tell an equally dismal story, with American students scoring below foreign kids in almost every subject. The latest survey, the Third International Mathematics and Science Study, ranked America 19th out of 21 countries in math, surpassing only Cyprus and South Africa. (No Asian nations, whose students typically do well, participated.)

When established, 22 May, 1877, it comprised the State of Kansas, U. S. A., with the Right Rev. Louis Mary Fink, O.S.B. as its first bishop. At his request, ten years later the Holy See divided the diocese into three: Wichita, Concordia, and Leavenworth. Leavenworth was then restricted to the 43 counties lying east of Republic, Cloud, Ottawa, Saline McPherson, Harvey, Sedgwick and Sumner Counties. The diocese had an area of 28,687 sq. m., with a total population in 1890, of 901,536. Authorized by the Holy See , Bishop Fink on 29 May, 1891, took up his residence in Kansas City, Kans., and the diocese was named after this city for some years. Apostolic letters dated 1 July, 1897, further diminished the territory of the diocese in favour of Concordia and Wichita. It now includes only the Counties of Anderson, Osage, Pottawatomie, Shawnee Wabaunsee, Wyandotte, Jackson, Jefferson, Linn, Lyon, Marshall, Miami, Nemaha, Atchison, Brown, Coffey, Doniphan, Douglas, Franklin, Johnson, and Leavenworth; an area of 12,594 sq. miles.

Extractions: The D.A.R.E., or Drug Abuse Resistance Education program, was started in the Los Angeles Unified School District by Chief Daryl Gates of the Los Angeles Police Department in 1983. Gates recognized that police were unable to cure the drug problem that was sweeping America by arresting pushers and users, so he set out to educated students in Los Angeles schools. Gates received the full cooperation of the Los Angeles school district, and the program began with the 1983-84 school term. During the first year, ten officers taught the new curriculum to more than 8,000 students in 50 Los Angeles elementary schools. By 1986, the program had grown to reach all 345 elementary and 58 junior high schools in the city. Based on his success, Gates invited other jurisdictions to send officers to Los Angeles for 80 hours of intensive DARE training. This training is now used by police departments in all 50 states. There are now at least 3,000 instructors in the United States, 150 of whom are with law enforcement agencies in the state of Oklahoma. Officers who teach in the DARE program must volunteer for the job on the basis of a solid commitment to preventing substance abuse among young people, and must have a clean record, a minimum of two years street experience, maturity and good communication and organization skills.
