Rush-Henrietta Supports Partnership Policy With Leadership and Action In 1997, the Rush-Henrietta Central School District in New York issued a policy statement supporting school, family, and community partnerships: The Board of Education believes that positive parental involvement is essential to student achievement, and . . . directs the Superintendent of Schools to develop a home-school communications program in an effort to encourage all forms of parental involvement. . . To help enact the policy, Rush-Henrietta joined the National Network of Partnership Schools. Starting with three schools this year, the district will continue to add schools over the next two years until all nine schools in the district are members of the Network. Part-time District Facilitator for School, Family, and Community Partnerships, Kay Lyons, works with participating schools’ Action Teams to develop quality programs of partnership that focus on student success. To begin the program, Ms. Lyons and school board member James Starkweather, elementary school counselor Matt Kilgore, Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) school president Kathy Carleton, and elementary school principal E. Sue Mills attended the June 1997 training workshop at Johns Hopkins University. The workshop provided participants from Rush- Henrietta with the time and opportunity to learn more about the Network, the framework of six types of involvement, the roles and responsibilities of district and school leaders, and other topics related to partnership program development.

Forty safety violations were issued. Surprise safety check takes trucks off road A safety inspection checkpoint on Route 28 near Waxpool Road Monday morning removed nine potentially dangerous trucks from the roads and cited 40 safety violations on other vehicles, according to a Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office spokesman. U.S. Rep. Frank Wolf (R-10th), Loudoun County Sheriff Stephen Simpson, and officials from the Federal Motor Carrier Administration, the Virginia Department of Transportation and VDOT were on hand for the five-hour inspection. “Most of the companies operating in this area do a good job,” Wolf said. “But there are some bad trucks out on the roads. We’ve seen some dangerous things today, things that could have ended up causing accidents if they were left on the road.” From 1990 to 2001 there were 108,820 truck-related accidents in Virginia, resulting in 1,593 deaths, according to Wolf’s office. “Some of the trucks we’ve seen have had bad brakes, multiple bad brakes on one vehicle, under-inflated or flat tires, all kinds of things,” Simpson said. “You can’t tell just by looking at the vehicle. It may look fine when it comes up in your rear-view mirror, but you don’t know if those brakes are working correctly or not.”

Obituaries Saving money The powers-that-be on the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors are taking drastic actions to save money in the face of a budget crisis. This week, the Board voted not to spend a full $5,000 to assist the Dulles Rail Corridor Association. However, it may take more than that for the Board to leave a legacy of penny-pinching. We would remind the Supervisors that they have made a bad habit of handing out grants and love offerings to their friends for years now, and never batted an eye in spending $10,000,000 on property without a clue of what would be done with it. The full spending record is clear, and we will leave it to those who oppose them at the polls to produce a documented accounting. Chairman York himself commented this week that we just cannot afford to spend that $5,000. Supervisor Jim Burton, who was known to pinch a few pennies before he joined in the spending frenzy on the board, joined York on fixing the blame elsewhere as usual. In the case of the county budget problems, they said, the state is to blame. There is always a target for our board to aim their fingers.

Search: Home Subscriptions Current issue Back issues ... Does Father Still Know Best? Digest Summaries of Important Research POLITICS Americans’ Ties Bind Everett Carll Ladd, The Ladd Report . Free Press, 1230 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10020. In a celebrated 1995 essay, Harvard political scientist Robert Putnam warned that Americans were far less likely to join groups than in the past. Citing declines in many major organizations—labor unions, the League of Women Voters, PTAs, and bowling leagues—Putnam concluded that Americans had become far less civic-minded, a trend that would inevitably lead to a fractured and balkanized America. Ladd, professor emeritus at the University of Connecticut, disagrees. A great deal of evidence, he contends, shows Americans are now more likely to join associations and aid charities. We are less likely to bowl than in the past—but more likely to join soccer leagues. Women have shifted their allegiance from the League of Women Voters to less political groups, such as the Soroptimists and local businesswomens’ associations. And while PTA membership is declining, parents aren’t abandoning the schools; they’re more likely to create independent, locally controlled parent-teacher organizations (PTOs), which don’t have to pay hefty dues to the PTA national headquarters or follow its political lead. Americans are also increasingly donating time to worthy causes. Polls show steady rises in the percentage of Americans who say they volunteer to help others. In 1977, for instance, 26 percent of Americans surveyed said they donated time to help the poor, the sick, and the elderly. By 1995, the percentage had more than doubled to 54 percent. Charitable donations are also rising, from $349 per person in 1970 to $524 in 1996 (measured in constant 1993 dollars).

Bill Cala - Original Message - From: Dave Stratman To: ARN-L@listsrva.CUA.EDU Sent: Friday, February 15, 2002 12:24 PM Subject: Re: [care] A change of direction for FairTest? Hi, Christina If "high standards" truly meant "believing all students can engage in higher order, in-depth thinking and learning, and all schools can become active, rigorous, and equitable places of learning," then I think that we would all support the concept (we might argue over the word "rigorous")and the Business Roundtable and the National Alliance for Business would not. "High standards" in the real worldthat is, the world in which these and other business organizations have mounted a sustained attempt to lower the educational attainment of many students and to stifle and distort the education of all of them who are in public schoolsmeans something very different. The corporate backers of Standards Based Education Reform (SBER) have very cleverly coopted the language that many of us used in the 1960s and '70s regarding "high expectations" to try and build popular support for goals and policies fundamentally opposed to what we were aiming for.
