It is re-assuring to hear now of a significant decision allowing Oregon youngsters with dyslexia and other learning disabilities to use computerized spell-checks and other help on statewide tests under a settlement announced on February 1st 01. The settlement with a group of Oregon parents who sued the state will affect fewer than 4,000 students, said Wayne Neuburger, Oregon's associate superintendent for assessment and education. However, it could provide guidelines for other states considering additional help for learning-disabled students when they take standardized tests. Many states have made, or are considering, tests as a graduation requirement.

Extractions: At Lincoln Elementary, parent involvement means more than putting parents in charge of "busy work" teachers don't have time to do. It means reaching out to parents, providing them with information and skills they may not already have; it means depending on them to mentor some of the school's troubled students; and it means using them as tutors to coach readers through the literacy process. At Lincoln, the parents are partners-they give to the school and they receive from the school. Three times a year, parents are invited to Parent Night at Lincoln. Each Parent Night has a theme. When families arrive, they are served a dinner that is provided by a community business partner. Afterward, child care is provided while the parents have the opportunity to learn more about specific issues related to parenting skills or to discover new strategies for helping their children academically. They get to choose two of three half-hour sessions that are offered by different speakers. Parents can volunteer to be part of a tutoring program called Mentor Match, which pairs them with an identified child to specifically target reading. Lincoln has approximately 40 volunteers involved in the Mentor Match program, 50 percent of which are parents. The volunteers work 30 minutes each week and generally volunteer for the entire year, though some serve for a semester only. The Title I Coordinator oversees the program by arranging with classroom teachers the best time for a volunteer to work with a particular student. In addition, the Title I Coordinator provides the mentor with a notebook of activities designed to meet students' individual reading needs. This notebook is updated as students' skills progress.
