Posted: 11/13/1997 Private, Public, and Alternative Schools Download PDF Expanded school choice, as discussed in Section I, benefits children who move to private schools as well as those who stay in the traditional public school system. To fully encourage these benefits, the constitutional amendment described in Section III establishes a credit "for tuition for education for any resident child attending a public or nonpublic elementary or secondary school in this state." Thus, a credit would be available to a parent sending their child to a private school, or a public school that charges them tuition. We have defined such schools in this study as "alternative schools." Currently, as detailed in Appendix I, there are between 400 and 500 students attending public schools and paying tuition, normally because their resident districts have not chosen to participate in inter-district school choice programs. This compares with about 220,000 private school students and 1.65 million students in traditional public schools. Data on these tuition-paid students is not precise, and we expect the number to decline as more districts adopt agreements allowing public school choice without financial penalties for parents, and as state law changes. The average tuition is also small compared with public school costs; our survey data indicates average tuition of about $470 per year, with the most common tuition amount being $1.

Helping parents and advocates improve educational results for children with disabilities Alternative Schools The Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) has awarded a grant to researchers from the Institute of Community Integration (ICI) to study alternative schools nationwide. There are 20,000 alternative schools in the United States that usually have the following characteristics: Low enrollment Individualized instruction Supportive environment Curricula tailored to fit student needs and future goals Flexible structure. One of the goals of this research project will be to discover how alternative schools serve students with disabilities and what affect IDEA 1997 has on these alternative schools. Researchers will do a general examination of alternative schools across the country; perform five case-studies based on an examination of alternative schools; visit schools to gather information from students, parent, educators, and administrators; and, recommendations on policy, practice, and further research based on the information collected.

Our essay contest winners: Students reflect on integration Readers give failing marks to high school admissions process Help wanted for parents who don't speak English Help! My 8th grader didn't get into high school ... Past articles... Alternative schools achieve official status For years, a number of alternative schools in Manhattan operated as small, autonomous "programs" within the Board of Education – gaining neither the status nor the scrutiny accorded to ordinary public schools. Now, 11 of these programs have been granted full school status. That means they'll get some of the perks of being a full-fledged school – including more staff. It also means their test data and other statistical information will be available for the first time on the Department of Education website , starting next year. Most of the newly recognized schools are progressive: Central Park East I and Central Park East II River East The Earth School East Village Community School ... Tompkins Square Middle School and the Muscota New School . Two are traditional: the Talented and Gifted Elementary School and The Talented and Gifted Institute for Young Scholars . (Those two will merge to make a K-8 school). As of the fall 2004, these schools will not only be publicized through parent word of mouth, but can be found on the DOE website, as well as have their "report cards" displayed. (As a service to parents, Insideschools has long posted profiles of these programs.) The directors will gain principal status and acquire an independent school budget. The schools will be eligible for parent coordinators, literacy and math coaches and will be able to take part in professional staff development meetings, according to Carol Foresta, Executive Director of Center for Collaborative Education, an umbrella group for the progressive schools, and a former CPE parent.

Alternative Schools in Korea The Failure of Traditional Schools The Characteristics of Alternative Schools Alternative Schools in Korea Jin, Dong-Seop Educational Administration (Professor, Seoul National University) The Failure of Traditional Schools 1. The Failure of Educational Growth of Students The Korean education has been expanded very rapidly thanks to the high educational zeal of koreans. Although Korea is too poor to school education expand, the efforts of the government and the supports of parents made it possible. Therefore, almost all middle school graduates enter high school at about 16 and over 60 percent of high school graduates go on to higher education. Generally speaking, the rising enrollments is thought to have led to overcrowded classrooms, oversized schools and excessive competition in the college entrance examination. In these circumstances, many children did not receive appropriate opportunities of educational growth. This has made school instruction boring to many students. And school education is meaningless to many students, who go to school compulsorily.
