    Extractions: In the period March-June 1981, 219 cases of measles were reported by the El Paso (Texas) City-County Health Department. All patients had a temperature of at least 101 F (38.3 C), a rash of at least 3 days' duration, and at least 1 of the following: cough, coryza, conjunctivitis, or Koplik's spots. Twelve cases were confirmed by a 4-fold rise in complement fixation (11) or hemagglutination inhibition (1) antibody titers between acute- and convalescent-phase serum specimens. Rash onset occurred between April 11 and May 8 in 154 (70.3%) of the cases. Patients ranged in age from 3 months to 36 years. The largest number of cases, 81 (37.0%), occurred among 15-19 year olds followed by 67 among 0-4 year olds (Table 1). Of these 67 pre-school patients, only 9 (13.4%) attended day-care centers. Of the 219 patients, 94 (42.9%) had histories of adequate measles vaccination*; 85 (38.8%) had no history of prior vaccination; and 37 (16.7%) had histories of inadequate vaccination. The vaccination status was unknown for 3 patients. Five of the 9 El Paso County public school districts were involved in the outbreak. The highest attack rate, 2.3 cases/1,000 enrollees, occurred in the Ysleta Independent School District, where 63 of the 100 cases reported occurred in a single high school (Figure 2). On April 28, 776 (34.3%) of the 2,265 students at that high school were identified as being susceptible, and a special clinic was conducted at the school on the morning of April 29. Only 6 cases were reported after the clinic date, and no cases were reported 14 days or more (1 incubation period) after the measles vaccination clinic.

    Extractions: R E T U R N Vouchers Voucher programs allow public tax dollars to be used for religious and private school tuition. Vouchers harm our neighborhood public schools by funneling tax dollars out of classrooms, especially those that most need these scarce resources. But vouchers also threaten the autonomy of private and parochial schools by imposing government regulations on these institutions. The Texas Freedom Network supports pro-public education measures that will help all Texas children, not risky voucher plans that would benefit a few at the expense of the majority of children and taxpayers.

Further, community foundations are usually classified under the tax code as public charities and therefore are subject to different rules and regulations than those which govern private foundations. (The site(s) listed below are launched in new browsers.) Amarillo Area Foundation The Amarillo Area Foundation of Texas was established in 1957 to meet the needs of underserved communities in the northernmost 26 counties of the Texas Panhandle. The foundation does not limit its discretionary grantmaking to a particular area of interest. Rather, it seeks to support the entire range of human needs in the Panhandle. The foundation manages hundreds of funds in the form of donor-advised funds, scholarships, unrestricted funds, and project funds. In general, the foundation does not fund religious or political causes; private of parochial schools; national, state, or local fundraising activities; or general operating support for United Way agencies. The foundation's Web site features a history of the foundation, board/staff lists, grant application criteria, application guidelines, printable application form, deadlines, and FAQs.

    Extractions: DISTRICT ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT This chapter examines Falls City Independent School District's (FCISD) organization, management and community involvement four sections: School boards are responsible for setting policies that are carried out by the administration. To determine the effectiveness of a district's organization and management, it is necessary to evaluate it against several critical factors. An efficient and logical organizational structure supports an effective planning, budgeting and improvement process that ensures that district resources are used efficiently and support the district's goals. BACKGROUND FCISD is a small district with 338 students in 2000-01 that is managed by a superintendent, a high school principal and an elementary principal. The present Falls City Independent School District was organized in 1949 as Falls City Common Consolidated County Line School District. The district was organized by consolidating smaller "Common" districts and parochial schools including Falls City, Hobson, Ehlers (in Wilson County), Deweesville, Laake, Cestohowa, Holy Trinity Parochial School of Falls City and Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary Parochial School of Cestohowa. An agreement was reached with the parochial schools that the newly formed school system would employ certified teachers from their schools. Consequently, nuns of the Sisters of the Incarnate Word and Blessed Sacrament and the order of Felician Sisters taught in the consolidated system into the 1990's.

    Extractions: You can be assured that I am totally committed and dedicated to bringing about systemic changes for improving public schools. It is my expectation that the end result will be nothing less than educational excellence for all children. This must be our focus, and, by working together as a team, we can meet the challenges facing public education in Texas. Potentially the most significant change on the state level has been the voters’ election of a new lieutenant governor—Republican Rick Perry. The lieutenant governor position was a post held for many years by the retiring Honorable Bob Bullock. The Texas Senate will have a new leader, and we as school board members must make our voice heard to this new leadership. We must be strong advocates for the 1998-2000 Legislative Program that was approved by the TASB Delegate Assembly.

    Extractions: WILLIAM Bennett may have sworn off gambling in Las Vegas and Atlantic City, but he may not be through testing his luck at the statehouse casino in Austin just yet. The pompous expert on everybody else's behavior suffered some deflation this spring. First, there were published reports that the former secretary of education and federal drug czar suffered from a not-very-virtuous gambling compulsion that had cost him millions in losses at major casinos. Then, his attempt to cash in on a growing effort in the Texas Legislature to privatize education failed, despite an investment of thousands of additional dollars on a small army of lobbyists. But with legislators expected to return this fall or next year for a special session on school finance, Bennett likely will be back, part of a lengthening line of "education" entrepreneurs seeking to siphon off tax dollars that would be better spent on public school teachers and classrooms.

    Extractions: LEAD-IN BY HOST: Democratic State Representative from Houston, Ron Wilson, has introduced two bills in the Texas House of Representatives that would launch a pilot voucher program in the six largest school districts in Texas: Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin, Houston, Cypress-Fairbanks and San Antonio's North side. Supporters of the bill say Texas needs to wake up to the realities of a failing public school system, while critics contend the voucher system is just another way to devalue public education. Jackson Allers has more on the debate: STORY: Houston area State Representative, Democrat Ron Wilson, is openly critical of those who oppose his school voucher legislation. "The ship is sinking and rather than rescue folks that are on the ship, we need to continue to bail water. I want to say that the kids are on the ship, they don't.

They don't like competition of any kind.Church schools do not have to meet the same requirments as public schools do since they are privately funded and they fall under exeptions from the religious freedoms restoration act. Fort Worth Can Academy, a FWISD alternative school has no certified teachers employed, and tells ever student to not go to any private or religious school. They are told to inform all students by Mrs. garcia that church schools and parochial, private schools are not true schools since they are not part of the state. Should we just take this? Our school district started in 1898. The Old Roman catholic School District. I wonder whaat FWISD was doing in 1898? Not much since there was not even a city here when our church opened it's school and began teaching children in that year.
