    Extractions: Career Education ... Assessment School Issues Article S C H O O L I S S U E S A R T I C L E As requirements for the federal education law start to kick in, Vermont governor Howard Dean is asking whether the cost of compliance is greater than the $53.7 million in federal money affected by the No Child Left Behind Act that the state receives. That includes about $21.4 million in Title I funds. If it is, Vermont may be better off rejecting the money and retaining its own assessment procedures, Dean told Education World. Included: A description of why Dean proposes turning down certain federal aid. Saying that the cost of retooling state education assessments to meet federal education requirements could exceed the state's federal education allocation and expressing concern about stipulations in the federal law, Vermont governor Howard Dean is considering rejecting federal aid rather than complying with the requirements. Vermont currently receives about $53.7 million in federal aid including $21.4 million in Title I money plus other federal grants and assistance that will be affected by the No Child Left Behind Act.

    Extractions: Neutral to Religion In Vermont's rural setting, many small towns cannot afford or simply don't have enough students to maintain a public high school. To ensure children in these towns receive a quality education, the state created a school tuition program allowing rural parents to select the private schools that best meet their children's needs. The town itself has no influence as to the school selected by the parents. After parents have chosen a school, which can include out-of-state institutions, the town then pays the tuition. The town's share of the tuition for private high schools is capped at the average cost of Vermont public high school tuition. The participation of religious schools is critical to the success of choice pilot programs nationwide and is a common characteristic of voucher programs in Wisconsin and Ohio. Both programs are defended in court by the Institute for Justice. Vermont's state law establishing a tuition system does not distinguish between religiously and non-religiously affiliated schools. On its face, it is utterly neutral. However, recent church/state controversies have arisen. In addition, Vermont's Department of Education terminated the town of Chittenden's general state education assistance because the Chittenden school board did not rescind its policy of including religiously affiliated schools among the public and private high schools for which it pays its students' tuition. The Department of Education denied their state general aid effective September 1, when the first payment would normally be sent out. (State aid represents about 10 percent of Chittenden's school budget.) If Chittenden rescinds the policy of allowing parents to select religiously affiliated schools and pay for them with their share of state funds, the flow of aid will be restored.

    Extractions: Home Who We Are Opportunities for Educators Advice for Parents ... Support for Kids By Angelo J. Dorta, Vermont-NEA President A growing national anti-public schools network is trying to radically change state education policy. The network strongly espouses school vouchers, charter schools, and preK-12 education tax credits. It generally opposes taxes and labor unions, but favors for-profit privatization of education services and diversion of public tax dollars for private uses. NEA strives to strengthen and defend public education. Therefore, the network views NEA as the primary roadblock obstructing its efforts to devalue, de-fund, and derail public education and the unions that represent school employees. John McClaughry's Ethan Allen Institute and Libby Sternberg's Vermonters for Better Education are the state's twin pillars of the anti-public schools network. They never publish any good news about public schools. They always portray Vermont student testing and school performance results in the harshest way, despite our students' consistently superior scores in state-by-state comparisons. They seldom praise or even acknowledge our teachers and school support staff for their good, hard work. The network's roots primarily are in the conservative wing of the Republican Party. McClaughry and Sternberg claim to head "non-partisan" organizations. In reality, they lead highly partisan advocacy groups committed to anti-public education goals. They are key strategists on conservative Republican issues and have sometimes advised and supported like-minded Republican candidates, including Ruth Dwyer. Unabashed conservatives mostly comprise their organizations' boards of directors and advisory councils, including unsuccessful former GOP state officer and legislative candidates.

    Extractions: Home Who We Are Opportunities for Educators Advice for Parents ... Support for Kids G-1. LICENSURE Vermont-NEA advocates rigorous state standards for entry into the teaching profession. These standards shall include above-average college grades, field training experience that includes successful completion of student teaching, and demonstration of proficiency on appropriate pedagogical and subject matter tests. Tests should be valid and unbiased and should be included as one element of comprehensive assessment for completion of a teacher preparation program as well as for licensure into the profession. The Association believes that licensing standards must assure that individuals wishing to enter the teaching profession have the following qualifications: a. a bachelor of arts or science degree from an accredited college or university, which shall be in a field of concentration other than education; b. undergraduate or graduate training in pedagogy and child development and psychology; c. successful completion of a student teaching internship experience or its equivalent at least one school year in duration; and d. a passing score, established by the State Board of Education, on a teacher examination defined by the national certification agency or board for other education professionals such as speech-language pathologists or school nurses. The Association asserts that a teaching license should signify that an individual entering the teaching profession is competent to teach. A teaching license must be legally recognized as the primary requirement for employment in every public and private school (Pre-K-12). No license should be issued unless an individual possesses the entry-level knowledge and skills required for teaching. No temporary or emergency licenses should be issued. No assignments should be permitted outside the teacher's area of licensure without appropriate concurrent retraining supported by the local district. Revocation of a teaching license must be for just cause and consistent with an equitable due process procedure. The Association supports regulations that would put licensed educators with teaching experience in decision-making roles in licensing agencies.

    Extractions: Give parents and children more choices. There is no excuse for trapping a child in a failing public school, or a public school whose program and practices parents find unacceptable. By expanding parental choice, education consumers will spend their money at the school which is responsive to their child's needs, not the government's preferences. Adopt SchoolChildren First! Give a state block grant to empower parents to choose the most suitable schools for their children from among many competing public and independent schools. Allow a generous tax credit for contributions to Student Tuition Organizations (similar to VSAC) that award private income-based scholarships to faith-based independent schools Allow families to take a $500 tax credit for home schooling Allow citizens to create local Education Freedom Districts , in which they can design their own innovative education systems free of heavy state control. Allow local teachers and parents to create public charter schools free of bureaucratic rules and responsive to parents and children. (36 states have already done so.)

    Extractions: FLASHLINE Web Posted: June 13, 1999 ublic taxpayer money may not used to subsidize tuition for students attending religious schools, the Vermont Supreme Court ruled Friday. The decision in the case of CHITTENDEN TOWN SCHOOL DISTRICT v. VERMONT DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION was unanimous, although the justices may have left the door open for some voucher aid to sectarian schools if controls are in place to guarantee that tax dollars are not used for religious instructions. Writing for the majority, Justice John Dooley opined, "We focus on the Vermont Constitution and conclude that a school district violates (the State constitution) when it reimburses tuition for a sectarian school ... in the absence of adequate safeguards against the use of such funds for religious worship." The case stems from a move made in 1995 by the school board of Chittenden, Vermont, to subsidize tuition of students to attend Catholic Mount St. Joseph Academy in neighboring Rutland. The town of Chittenden does not have its own public high school, and as in the case of Maine, pays for students to attend public or private schools in other communities. The Vermont Department of Education stopped its portion of financial assistance to the school district, though, when the board approved vouchers for 15 local students to attend the parochial school. The town filed suit in Superior Court, and in 1997 a judge ruled against the use of vouchers in that case.
