Just one day later in Boston, Steve Kaplan , president of the Massachusetts School Psychologists Association, voiced his association's concerns to Assistant Secretary Judith Heumann at the first federally sponsored public hearing on the proposed regulations. Kaplan's testimony targeted the regulations that guide interagency agreements; he stressed the importance of school psychologists and other related service providers in understanding the school culture for effective IEP development and implementation. At the hearing, disability advocates commended Kaplan for his recommendations. School psychology was also represented at the hearing by NASP's Massachusetts Delegate, Terry Davis , and a past president of the New Hampshire association.

Graduate Teacher Certification Teaching is a wonderful and exciting profession. How can you become a professional teacher and a certified teacher in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts? Becoming a Professional Teacher Entry into the teaching profession is regulated by law that outlines the requirements and conditions for licensure. In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the Law stipulates a three stage process of teacher licensure. Temporary licensure requires a Bachelor’s degree with a major in the arts or sciences, or an inter-disciplinary major appropriate to an instructional field and the successful completion of the MTEL (Massachusetts Tests for Educational Licensure). This level of certification does not require professional preparation in teacher education. Temporary licenses are valid for five years. Initial Licensure requires completion of professional preparation at either the undergraduate or graduate level in teacher education and student teaching and the successful completion of the MTEL. Professional Licensure requires possession of the Initial license, three years of service at the level/content of the initial license and other options that included the earning of a Master's degree..

Massachusetts Cultural Council | Local Cultural Council Program Regulations & Gu Changes to both the regulations and guidelines take The mission of the massachusetts Cultural Council is to promote excellence, access, education and diversity http://www.arts-cape.com/falmouthcc/local_guidelines.html

Both regulations and guidelines are included in this document. Regulations are rules that exist as part of the Massachusetts Code of Regulations (962 CMR 2.00) and changes to them must be filed with the Secretary of State's office. The guidelines explain additional procedures LCCs must follow to ensure a thoughtful and fair process for distributing public money. Changes to both the regulations and guidelines take effect July 31, 1999. In Massachusetts, public funding for the arts, humanities and interpretive sciences is provided through a central state agency, the Massachusetts Cultural Council, and through a network of local cultural councils that serve every city and town in the state. The mission of the Massachusetts Cultural Council is to promote excellence, access, education and diversity in the arts, humanities and interpretive sciences in order to improve the quality of life for all Massachusetts residents and to contribute to the economic vitality of our communities.

73. NEA: Charter Schools over its operation and frees the school from regulations that other public State education officials and legislators in Indiana, massachusetts and elsewhere http://www.nea.org/charter/

For and About Members Help for Parents Press Center Legislative Action Center ... Vouchers Updated: May 26, 2004 Research NEA Resources Other Resources Charter Schools NEA policy embraces high standards, accountability and strong local control for charter schools. It also offers guidance in the form of various criteria that can significantly improve the chances for success of these programs, which after 10 years are still in the experimental stage. Among other things, NEA firmly believes that all affected public education employees must be directly involved in the design, implementation and governance of these and other educational programs. Failures spur review of charter school laws Charter schools are part of the landscape of public education. According to the Education Commission of the States, as of August 2001 there were more than 2,300 public charter schools serving more than 500,000 students nationwide. The Commission reported that 37 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico have laws providing funding and permitting charter schools to operate. However, many of those statutes are being revisited and revised in light of a number of charter school failures, some with disastrous consequences for students. NEA's position on charter schools is necessarily general. State laws and regulations vary widely, and NEA state affiliates have positions that are appropriate to the situation in their states. For example, accountability for meeting high academic standards is an essential component of successful charter schools. But not all state charter laws have strong accountability requirements. In addition, not all state laws require charter schools to develop programs conforming with state or local academic standards, and many charter laws do not require charters to participate in the state accountability system.

Boston.com / News / Education / Higher Education / State Seen Weakening Enforcem To help limit losses, massachusetts has long had regulations that require developers to replace virtually every square foot of wetland they disturb. http://www.boston.com/news/education/higher/articles/2004/05/22/state_seen_weake

Today's Globe Politics Opinion Magazine ... Higher education State seen weakening enforcement on wetlands May 22, 2004 BOSTON Wetland regulation in Massachusetts, which became a national leader in protecting its swamps, marshes and fens four decades ago, has slipped in recent years, compromised by poor record keeping, lack of enforcement, and budget cuts. ADVERTISEMENT In the past year, state officials have learned that hundreds of acres or more of wetlands have vanished, The Boston Globe reported, and that the state's record keeping is so poor that state officials have no clear idea which of the states lost wetlands have been filled illegally. The Globe also found that wetland officials went a decade without an effective system for making sure if the state's "no net loss" goal for wetlands was being met, and that oversight and enforcement of wetland policy mostly relies on volunteer local conservation commissions ill-equipped to administer and enforce state rules. The state has a long-standing policy requiring developers to replace virtually each square foot of wetlands they eliminate. But erratic local oversight has led to numerous failures of that system. In Franklin, for example, developer Francis Molla promised in 1989 to replace a 1,600-square-foot wet meadow he paved over. Today, the replacement site is parched and filled with garbage. Wetland scientists reviewed the site recently for the town and determined a wetland had never been built.
