Home Protecting Consumers Safeguarding Children Seniors ... Consumer Publications List Career Schools: Do Some Homework Before You Enroll A computer training program promised a new future for students who completed its course and obtained certification. Students paid or borrowed thousands in tuition, but then found that classes were postponed, teachers were not prepared, and equipment was out of date. Then the school closed and students found out it was not licensed, so they had no way to get their money back. A cosmetology student was told that she would have to make up 50 hours of missed class time in order to qualify for her licensing exam. She had to pay several hundred dollars extra. The charges were explained in her enrollment contract, but she had not read it and compared charges with other cosmetology schools before she enrolled. If you are considering enrolling in a career school, also known as a trade or vocational school, choose carefully. While some of these schools can prepare you for a new career, others will just put you in debt. In some cases, career schools promise they'll train and find jobs for all students who enroll. They help students secure federal education loans to cover tuition. The schools then provide worthless training and fail to find the student a job. But the student still must repay the loan.

The program was begun by House Speaker Thomas Hunter Lowe and approved by the Maryland State Board of Education. Each year, 120 pages and 36 alternates are selected from across the State to represent their schools and counties in Annapolis. The Page program is nonpatronage and selection is done through the local school systems. Each county in Maryland has a County Page Coordinator who is appointed by the local Superintendent of Schools. This person is responsible for organizing and conducting the selection process used by the county's public and nonpublic schools to select the students who will serve as pages and alternates. Each county is allocated at least one page and one alternate position and receives additional positions based on its high school senior student population. Interested students apply through their schools in September of their senior year, and selection is completed by October 31 of each year.

Maryland School Performance Assessment Program The Maryland School Performance Assessment Program is a criterion-based performance assessment program that measures student achievement of learning outcomes in relation to rigorous performance standards. It is used in conjunction with several other assessments, including norm-referenced tests (Comprehensive Tests of Basic Skills) and criterion-referenced minimal competency tests (Maryland Functional Tests). Steve Ferrara, director of student assessment at the Maryland State Department of Education, describes how the Maryland School Performance Assessment Program addresses equity . [1.4 MB audio file] Excerpted from a personal communication, November 1995. A text version is available: "The Maryland School Performance Assessment Program is a statewide, high-stakes, performance-based assessment program. In all our state assessment programs, we are mindful of equity issues and try to address them in all phases of development and implementation of those programs. We define equity in terms of race, ethnicity, sex, socioeconomic status or wealth, and for students who are from regular, special education, and limited-English-proficiency (LEP) programs, and so forth. We address equity in five ways: first, through program philosophy; second, through test design and development procedures; third, through test administration procedures; fourth, through scoring; and fifth, through statistical analyses. I want to comment briefly on just a couple of these. First of all, we address and try to ensure equity through program philosophy. Our philosophy in Marylandwhich I think is very typicalis that all students can learn; that all students should have access to rigorous curriculum and instruction; and that all students, teachers, and schools should be held to high but attainable standards.
