A r c h i v e d I n f o r m a t i o n Family Involvement in Children's Education - October 1997 Maine School Administration District #3: A Geographically Dispersed, Rural District Draws Parents into Schools Thorndike, Maine Overview The parent involvement programs in Maine's School Administration District (SAD) #3 focus on drawing parents into the schools, providing them and their children with interactive learning experiences, and involving parents as well as teachers in curricular and instructional planning. Thanks to the efforts of involved administrators, teachers, community members, and a special projects director who works in the district's central office, the district has won grants to supplement Title I funding and support training for teachers and parents in experiential learning and other ways to participate in their children's education. Through these activities, teachers have become more comfortable with bringing others into their classrooms, and many no longer believe that they alone are the "keepers of the knowledge." The district found that, once teachers accept the idea of having other adults in the classroom, they actively seek out parents. Context Geographic isolation is a significant barrier to developing parental involvement programs in this rural, primarily agricultural region of eastern Maine, which is known for its dairy products and blueberry farms. The district covers an area of 400 square miles and includes 11 small towns, of which Unity is the largest with a population of 11,000. There are six elementary schools, one junior high, and one high school. Some towns traditionally support strong parent-teacher organizations, but others, which are experiencing an influx of new residents from larger cities, struggle to develop a sense of community. There is also a small but growing migrant population that comes to the area during blueberry and apple picking seasons.

ADDRESSING SCHOOL VIOLENCE IN MAINE Prepared by Maine Civil Liberties Union Foundation There's no question about it: schools need to be safe, and the people who study, teach, and work in schools need to feel safe. But in the post-Columbine climate, are we creating "safe schools" at the expense of students being treated fairly? In Part One of Addressing School Violence in Maine we examine the scope of school violence today and look at measures that schools have developed to combat safety problems. These measures have ranged from security guards in the hallways to restrictive dress policies to "zero tolerance" disciplinary policies. In Part Two we list a number of programs and organizations which work for safe schools in ways we believe better address the root causes of student violence, while protecting the rights of students and other members of the school community.

The activists said they were there to raise awareness about the disparity between military and educational spending, as well as Maine's dependency on defense spending in its economy. Tax dollars, they argued, should be spent on teachers and social services, not the grenade launchers and machine guns produced by companies like General Dynamics.

40. Institute For Justice: Litigation Backgrounder When maine s Attorney general decided to excluded religious schools from the tuitioning system, he argued that the discriminatory policy was required by the http://www.ij.org/cases/school/MEbk.shtml

The Case for School Choice: Raymond, Maine LITIGATION BACKGROUNDER [School Choice] On July 31, 1997, the Institute for Justice filed a lawsuit that marks a milestone in its efforts to promote parental choice in education. In Bagley v. Town of Raymond , the Institute challenges the exclusion of religious schools from Maine's rural school choice program. The case could set an important precedent for educational programs in other states that discriminate against religious schools and the parents that choose them for their children. The Town of Raymond sits at the northwest tip of Sebago Lake in Cumberland County, Maine. Even though it is just 20 miles from the Portland city limits, Raymond remains a small rural hamlet. Although it has a legal duty to provide an education for residents through the twelfth grade, Raymond has too few school-age residents to justify operating a public school beyond the sixth grade. Maine developed a common-sense solution to Raymond's predicament, which many small towns face in this predominantly rural state: Mainers call it "tuitioning." In Maine, parents who live in towns without public schools have the right to select the school that best suits their children's educational needs. The town then pays tuition (capped at the average cost of educating a student in Maine's public high schools ) to the school that the parents choose. Parents who live in "tuitioning towns" are free to pick any school for their children-public or private, in-state or out-of-state. Any school, that is, unless it is religious. Maine law singles out religious schools, and religious schools only, for discriminatory treatment, prohibiting towns from paying tuition to any school that is "sectarian."
