Public release date: 20-Feb-2004 Contact: Tom Evelyn tevelyn@mail.ucf.edu University of Central Florida Well-stocked, staffed school libraries boost FCAT scores, UCF research shows Students at schools with better libraries outperform peers on Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test, University of Central Florida research reveals ORLANDO, Fla. Students at schools with well-staffed libraries that circulate the most books and have the most computers outperform their peers on the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test, according to research at the University of Central Florida. FCAT scores, the state's primary measure of student achievement, were 20 percent higher in 2000-01 in reading at high schools that employed at least one full-time professional librarian and the equivalent of one other full-time library employee, UCF education professor Donna Baumbach concluded in her "Making the Grade" report. FCAT scores also were highest at elementary and middle schools with well-staffed libraries. Fifty-five percent of students passed the FCAT reading test at high schools with a full-time professional library media specialist and one or more employees who worked a combined 40 hours or more a week, compared with 37 percent at other high schools. Other factors influencing test scores include the size of a school's library collection, the age of the materials and the availability of computers in the library. Like studies in Colorado, Oregon, Texas, Iowa and New Mexico, the Florida research shows there is a strong correlation between available resources in a school's library and student achievement.

73. Why Should Principals Support School Libraries? Austin, TX texas State Library and Archives Commission. Serving special needs students in the school library media center. http://www.libraryreference.com/school-libraries.html

Why Should Principals Support School Libraries? by Hartzell, Gary Principals should support school libraries because it is in both their students' and their own best interests to do so. Quality library media programs can enhance student achievement, and informed, committed librarians can help principals enhance their own administrative practice. STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT The evidence is drawn from elementary, middle, and high school studies reaching back to the 1950s. While the volume of evidence alone is cumulatively persuasive, the most recent research is especially powerful because its authors statistically controlled for demographic differences among the schools they studied-a feature missing in the pre-1990 research. This is important because the evidence is largely derived from statistical correlation studies, which cannot unequivocally prove causation. Correlation research can, however, identify relationships and degrees of association among variables. Cause-and-effect probability is strengthened if similar correlations appear in multiple settings over time, which is what occurs here. Media Services Program Characteristics 1.

The bill, which is sponsored by Alderman Terry Kennedy , would create a Civilian Review Board for the St. Louis Police Department. This would be in addition to the 'pretend' oversight board that Mayor Slay initiated a few weeks ago which is NOT independent of the police department. The board that Alderman Kennedy is trying to form would be an independent organ of the city government with its own office in City Hall. It would consist of four elected officials from four different districts in the city, and it would have three appointed officials appointed by the Mayor and the Police Board of Commissioners. As it currently stands, one of the appointed officials would have to come from an organization with a background in fighting against police misconduct and abuse.
