When the gavel fell on the legislative session, Missouri was left with a state budget that slashed more than $200 million from elementary and secondary education - a move that a recent poll of Missouri school districts indicates could result in the elimination of over 2,000 teachers and over 1,000 school personnel in the state. Remaining steadfast in his support for public education, Governor Bob Holden vetoed several of the key budget bills, including HB 2, the elementary and secondary education budget and HB 3, the higher education budget. This week, Governor Holden announced that he will call legislators back to Jefferson City to reconsider cuts made to these vital services in a special session to begin Monday, June 2, at noon. MNEA will be there to advocate for children and public education.

Missouri schools are still trying to make ends meet Sunday, February 22, 2004 Music teacher Tara Yarbrough writes on the blackboard inside a classroom at Wyaconda C-1 school Thursday afternoon. Yarbrough splits her teaching duties between schools in three Missouri districts. By Ann Pierceall Herald-Whig Staff Writer Public school districts in Missouri are trying all these measures and more to slow the flow of red ink they face because of state funding cuts. For the last two years, funding has fallen short of the 100 percent allotted to them through the state's public school funding foundation formula. That formula determines how much state money individual districts receive. Projections for next year are even more dismal. Financial consultants for various education organizations say a worst-case scenario will put next year's funding level at 70 to 75 percent, costing districts hundreds of thousands of dollars. The last time schools were fully funded was the 2001-2002 school year. In 2002-2003, funding dropped to about 97 percent. That number dropped to about 89 percent this year. Area superintendents are planning budgets with the worst-case scenario in mind.

The Safe Schools Act Protects Missouri Students by Susan Anderson The Safe Schools Act was passed by the Missouri Legislature in 1995 and became effective August 28, 1996. In March, 1998, two boys, ages 11 and 13, gathered an arsenal of weapons and drove to Westside Middle School in Jonesboro, Arkansas, pulled the fire alarm in the school building, and then waited in a wooded area near the school. When their fellow students filed from the school doors in response to the alarm, the boys opened fire, killing four students and a teacher. Before this incident occurred, then Superintendent Grover Cooper believed the worst thing that could happen in his school district would be a bus accident. "There's no way to explain how you feel and I hope none of you ever has to know how you feel...It changes people's lives forever," stated Mr. Cooper as he described the Jonesboro tragedy during his appearance at the Missouri Governor's Conference on Safe Schools. At the conference, both Governor Mel Carnahan and Attorney General Jay Nixon noted that measures have been taken to help prevent a similar incident from occurring in Missouri schools through the passage of the Safe Schools Act in 1995 (the act). The passage of that legislation was partly in response to the rape and murder of a St. Louis student in her high school by another student.

Eureka Police Department General Information History Mission Statement Statistical Data History: The present site of the City of Eureka, Missouri , had already been a settlement for many years when, in 1853, a railroad engineer found a valley through the hill country and a construction site was set up on the site. The Missouri and Pacific Railroad surveyor used the name "Eureka", in the same manner as the early Greeks used the exclamation upon finding a precious gem. Eureka was formally incorporated on April 7, 1954. In 1958, the city established the Police Department and enacted ordinances which allowed for an elected City Marshal. On June 1, 1958, Charles Branson was elected the first City Marshal/Chief of Police, a position he held until retiring in April, 1985 (27 years). At that time, Robert Maness, Asst. Chief of Police since 1966, was elected the new City Marshal/Chief of Police. On his retirement in 1987, the current Chief of Police, Michael Wiegand was elected to the City Marshal position. Including the Chief, the department now consists of 20 sworn officers and three (3) full-time civilian personnel. The total patrol area now covers 8.5 square miles including the Six Flags - St. Louis

send page to a friend PC 101 at Missouri School of Journalism? Eric Langborgh All journalism students at Missouri are required to take a class entitled "Cross-Cultural Journalism." Ostensibly intended to teach how to improve minority coverage, incorporate more minorities in newsrooms, and how to teach students to get along with and learn from other cultures, many critics feel that the class is instead used to berate non-minority men. "It is rather absurd to make some students, particularly white males, feel bad about being in journalism school," mentioned Don Ranly, a professor within the department. "Aren’t you really saying, ‘Why don’t you go away and leave room for us?’ I can’t imagine not resenting that." Indeed, Ranly, who labels the class "too politically correct," is not alone. Fellow faculty member Brian Brooks, head of the editorial department, contends that most professors dislike the course. On September 29 at an editorial department faculty meeting, Brooks discussed the possibility of abolishing the requirement with the dean of the journalism school, Dean Mills. The Curriculum Committee is scheduled to review the course and discuss its future later this semester. The course description in and of itself draws little criticism: "Cross-Cultural Journalism provides journalistic tools for the coverage of diverse ethnic, gender, ability and ideological groups inside and outside the United States. The critical role of diverse voices in a democracy will be discussed."

Archives Rural Policy Matters a newsletter of rural school and community action Note from Missouri Committee for Educational Equality By Tyler Laney The Committee for Educational Equality filed suit in Missouri in January 2004 claiming the state's school funding system is unconstitutional. It was not the first time. In the early 1990s, a small group of school superintendents in southwest and southeast Missouri initially organized the Committee for Educational Equality (CEE) to address the inequities and inadequacies of the state's school funding system. They enlisted 114 Missouri school districts in the committee. The CEE filed the first lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the system for financing Missouri's public schools, claiming it violated Article IX, Section 1(a) of Missouri's Constitution which states: "A general diffusion of knowledge and intelligence being essential to the preservation of the rights and liberties of the people, the general assembly shall establish and maintain free public schools for the gratuitous instruction of all persons in this state within the ages not in excess of twenty-one years as prescribed by law." In January 1993, Judge Byron Kinder ruled in favor of the CEE, ruling that public school facilities in Missouri ranged from "the golden to the God-awful." Kinder also said the Missouri Constitution requires that "a child living in a poor school district must have the same opportunity to receive substantially the same education as a child living in a rich district." Additionally, Kinder stated: "Money distributed outside of the formula compounds inequalities (and) those disparities are not because of differing student needs, but instead are associated with local property wealth or are simply irrational."

Time.com People Fortune EW Missouri school named 'unhappiest' college University of Missouri-Rolla surfaced in eight of 63 categories of The Princeton Review nationwide campus rankings, all of which were negative. ROLLA, Missouri (AP) R.J. Agee says the University of Missouri-Rolla is a great place, no matter what you read about it. Citing "dungeon dorms," bad food and poor community relations, The Princeton Review's latest college survey says Agee and his classmates at the university should be the unhappiest students in the country. But many who attend the school, where 70 percent of the students study engineering, just scoff. "A lot of people don't understand it. The facts have no basis. It's a joke," said Agee, a senior and the student council president. The review, which surveyed 100,000 students nationwide, placed Missouri-Rolla last in the quality of life ranking of its "Best 345 Colleges" guide the bottom of the heap in a section called Purgatory. The publication said Missouri-Rolla also suffered from inaccessible professors and political apathy. The school took more lumps for its tiny size and supposedly bad food it ranked 20th in the food ranking, making it the best of the bad.

MISSOURI STATE GOVERNMENT WEB PRESS ANNOUNCEMENTS (Listen to Governor Holden's Remarks Here) S TA T E M E N T RE: Budget June 27, 2003 I have announced today my intention to sign House Bill 102, the budget for elementary and secondary education, and House Bill 103, the budget of higher education. This is not a budget I support and I have provided the legislative leadership every opportunity to prevent these cuts to education. Their budget takes our state in the wrong direction but at this point in the fiscal year the alternative to signing their budget would force a shutdown to Missouri schools. That action would not be in the best interests of Missouri children. For example, the funding for 36 state schools for the severely handicapped relies entirely on state funding that would end July 1 st Legislators should take this time to return to their districts and talk with parents, teachers, administrators, and school board members. Surely, as the damage that they have inflicted on Missouri’s schools becomes clearer to the legislators, they will reconsider the course they have chosen. As the layoffs of teachers mount and class sizes grow, these legislators will come to understand as I do that this is not the right course for Missouri.

Appleseed Calls for State Commission On Public Education Reform Political Consensus Is Needed To Improve Missouri Schools New York State School Reform Commission Cited As Model ST. LOUIS, MO. May 10, 2004 Providing every child in Missouri with the opportunity to obtain a quality education will help to ensure that our state is better prepared to meet the rapidly changing demands of the 21st century global economy - while also opening the doors to a brighter future for millions of young Missourians. To help meet this critical challenge, Project Appleseed is calling for the establishment of the Missouri Commission on Education Reform. No matter who is elected in November, Missouri's governor must appoint a commission charged with the mission of developing specific proposals to reform and improve public education throughout the state. To improve education in Missouri public schools, bi-partisan political leadership, parent leaders, citizens, educators, business leaders, and labor leaders must come together to systematically organize a plan for state-wide school improvement and mobilize community support to implement the proposed reforms. This should be a priority for Missouri's governor and the Missouri Legislature. "Over the last year the governor and the Legislature have been allowed to play politics at the expense of the school districts, students and taxpayers. Each has been pointing fingers at the other as the source of the revenue problem, confusing the issue and generally making it difficult for the average taxpayer to determine the real cause(s) of the funding decline. I will remember this in the August primaries and in the November general election. I urge other voters to do the same," wrote taxpayer George Crowell of St. Peters in a recent letter to the editor in The St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
