Posted on Friday, June 04, 2004 - 4:27 pm: Boy Scouts still under heavy fire David Limaugh TownHall.com How many times have you heard people, your own friends and acquaintances, lament the demise of our moral fabric? Yet when that rare group fights to preserve traditional values we mostly sit idly by as the culture unleashes its vengeance against it. Ever since the Dale case, the homosexual lobby has redoubled its efforts to cripple this fine organization through sheer bullying tactics and intimidation. When will those who appreciate the work of the Scouts begin to speak up on their behalf and denounce and perhaps even boycott those organizations conspiring to hasten their capitulation to the culture? In keeping with their character, the Scouts said they would nevertheless help with the event, even without the donation. But such graciousness will not take them out of the line of fire. This is a war, and the homosexual lobby seems to have plenty of allies.

29. C-599 Parent Teacher Connection In April, we presented a critical viewing workshop for parents and 80 representativesfrom the ptas and ptos within the school district, she says. http://www.philsch.k12.pa.us/offices/imedia/PTConnection.html

CABLE'S PARENT TEACHER CONNECTION Reprinted courtesy of Cable in the Classroom magazine How cable companies, schools, and local PTAs are working together to benefit teachers, parents, and kids. By Jeff Carter ALTHOUGH THEY WORK in different professions, Latha Krishnaiyer and Cindy Stoddart discovered they have an important common concern: the impact of television violence and commercialism on children. So in early 1995, Krishnaiyer, of the Broward County and Florida State PTA, and Stoddart, director of public and government affairs of the Broward County System at Comcast Cable of Fort Lauderdale, got together to lead one of the very first Taking Charge of Your TV workshops for a group of concerned parents at the Florida PTA leadership conference. They’ve been giving them ever since. The partnership between Comcast and the Florida PTA "makes perfect sense," Stoddart says. "I think the cable industry brings a tremendous sense of responsibility and commitment to education to the table, along with the ability to use the resources that we have to communicate to the public at large. The PTA members take the information we give them back to their communities and they make things happen at a grassroots level." "For instance," Krishnaiyer continues, "a woman at one of the workshops said that she came home one day and went into the laundry room to wash clothes. Her two boys had taken marbles and strewn them all over the floor. She took a step and took a dive—luckily she wasn’t hurt! Then she brought the kids in and she wanted to know what happened. They said they were doing this to stop burglars from coming in, just like the kid did in the movie

What does it mean to form a parent network? It's neither as awkward as trying to become friends with virtual strangers nor as easy as getting a list of names and phone numbers to post on your refrigerator door. What's below: What are the benefits of creating a parent network? How can I create a parent network? What are the benefits of creating a parent network? You can use the network as a support group. Raising children is often stressful and isolating; knowing that you can vent and share your feelings with other people who are facing the same issues can be very comforting and affirming. You can compare notes with other parents. Suppose your child starts complaining that her teacher doesn't explain assignments well; to get a valuable reality check, you can call up other families and find out if their children are experiencing the same problem.

38. Arizona School Boards Association The arizona School Boards Association is a nonprofit organization governed by representatives of the public school districts in arizona. guidance on the prohibitions provided by arizona Revised http://www.azsba.org/prop301guide.htm

Guidelines for Proposition 301 Note: This document is intended to give school district governing board members and school employees some guidance on the prohibitions provided by Arizona Revised Statutes section 15-511, which prohibits the use of school district "personnel, equipment, materials, buildings or other resources for the purpose of influencing the outcomes of elections." Many governing board members and employees will be familiar with the prohibitions of 15-511 from their experiences in school district bond and/or override elections. Simply put, any practice that is prohibited under a school bond or override election will also be prohibited in the Proposition 301 election. The converse is also true. This is said to give governing board members and school employees some comfort in knowing that the rules are not radically different between the two election types and that familiarity with school district restrictions in a bond or override campaign will serve them well in the Proposition 301 campaign. The Guidelines: Don't use school materials or resources.

40. Illinois Loop: School Boards It s just like watching Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Lisa GrahamKeegan, former Superintendent of Public Instruction, State of arizona http://www.illinoisloop.org/boards.html

Intro Search MAIN MENU News list ... More School Boards Illinois Rules on School Boards For information on the section of the Illinois School code that covers operation of school boards, see our page on Illinois Laws and Rules The Authority of School Boards There often is confusion about the role of the school board in setting the direction for education in the district. Obviously, the board hires the superintendent, so it exerts great influence on this direction at that time. The exact duties and responsibilities of the school board vary from state to state. But in Illinois at least, the role of the board in setting educational goals goes further. Here are two items from the state education code that relate to this: The district school board is explicitly given authority "to direct what branches of study shall be taught" (section 10-20.8 of the state ed code). Moreover, the role of the superintendent regarding curriculum is legally restricted to making a recommendation to the board: The district superintendent is required to "make recommendations to the board concerning ... the selection of textbooks, instructional material and courses of study." (section 10-21.4)
