Extractions: Rural Texas ... Texas Republican Platform EDUCATION The Texas Democratic Party believes public education is the key to economic opportunity and effective participation in our democracy. We believe that family, school, and community share responsibility for providing every child with a quality public education in a safe, secure school. The Texas Republican Party believes parents or guardians may choose to educate their children either in a private school or at home without government interference of any type, be it through definition, regulation, accreditation, licensing or testing. We call for the abolition of the regulatory authority of the Texas Education Agency and to transfer its responsibilities to the elected State Board of Education. We call for the abolition of the U.S. Department of Education and the prohibition of the transfer of any of its functions to any other federal agency.

Why Choose A Parochial School? (Freude)
parochial schools are becoming more common, too, and now exist in California, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, and texas.
http://www.theologic.com/oflweb/school/paroch.htm

Extractions: In the past, OFL has offered articles for Orthodox parents interested in making the most of their children's experience in the public school system, and for parents interested in home schooling. Many Orthodox parents, however, turn to non-Orthodox parochial schools for their children's academic education. Below, Popadia Donna Freude offers both her professional and personal advice on evaluating a parochial school and handling the potential conflicts between Orthodox beliefs and the religious beliefs taught by the school. - NTK by Donna M. Freude, M.A.Ed. From the time of birth, we parents make thousands of decisions concerning our children. Should we use disposable diapers or cloth diapers? Bottle feed or breast feed? What pediatrician should we select? And of course, where will we send our child to school? The plethora of choices continue to develop as your child grows. The decision to send your child - a baptized Orthodox Christian - to a non-Orthodox parochial school may be made for as many reasons as there are individual children. What is a parochial school?

"The mission of the Fredericksburg Chamber of Commerce is to create a positive business environment; take a leadership role in community affairs; be an information resource for its members; and help in providing a better quality of life for its citizens." To become better acquainted, allow us to tell you a little about Fredericksburg, Texas and Gillespie County HISTORY In the 19th Century, a group of Germans seeking a better life chose Texas and in 1846 settled Fredericksburg in the Texas Hill Country. What they were seeking was a better "quality of life." It was what Fredericksburg's German settlers had in mind when they reached the banks of the Pedernales River in the heart of the Texas Hill Country. It is what their descendants are preserving 150 years later.

http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/education/july-dec98/vouchers_11-27.html

Extractions: Betty Ann Bowser takes a look at school vouchers in Texas, followed by a discussion on this controversial topic led by Phil Ponce. BETTY ANN BOWSER: At 7 o'clock each weekday morning Lydia Chandler takes her three boys to school. What's different this year, though, is that Chandler is taking her kids to a private school that costs $1500 per child, and she's not having to pay a penny for tuition. LYDIA CHANDLER: I've always wanted my children to go to private school but my funds were limited, so I had no choice but to put them in public. BETTY ANN BOWSER: Chandler can put the kids in private school because of a voucher program offered to every child in the low-performing Edgewood Public School District where she lives in San Antonio, Texas. TEACHER: Latitude lines, which ones are they? Yvette. BETTY ANN BOWSER: It's the first time a private organization has offered millions of dollars in vouchers to an entire school district. Money for the project is coming from the Children's Educational Opportunity Foundation, also called CEO. Forty-five million of the fifty million dollar program is being bankrolled by a conservative San Antonio philanthropist named Dr. James Leininger, who's part of a growing national movement supporting school choice through vouchers. DR. JAMES LEININGER, Children's Educational Opportunity: My desire, and the only reason that I'm involved with this is that every student in America would have the same educational opportunity as my children. I can afford to send my children to a private school, if I think that's what's best - any place they need to go. And I think that every child in America ought to have that same opportunity, not just be trapped into one school because they're poor.

http://www.ncpa.org/press/ceo422.html

Extractions: $50 Million Horizon Project a Model for the Nation San Antonio, TX - An historic educational choice project announced today in San Antonio will enable, for the first time ever, thousands of families in an entire school district to exercise choice of schools. CEO Horizon, a project of the Children's Educational Opportunity Foundation of America (CEO AMERICA) , CEO San Antonio (a local, privately funded voucher program), and San Antonio business leaders, is reaching out to the 14,000 'at-risk' students of the San Antonio Edgewood School District, by offering full tuition scholarships to transfer to any school their parents choose. The program will begin with the Fall semester of this year and continue for at least 10 years, with a minimum commitment of $5 million per year. In addition to the immediate impact it will have on the local community, it offers the best model to date as to what a publicly funded voucher program will be able to achieve. As a result of the program, researchers will be assessing the implications and impact upon student performance as well as the impact upon quality and availability of public and private education options. CEO AMERICA president Fritz Steiger said the magnitude of the program will touch many lives in a positive manner: "We are reaching out to the most "at-risk" children and offering a long term commitment to improve their educational opportunities. Our efforts are aimed at helping the entire Edgewood community and being a catalyst to improve educational quality for every child in every school."
