Back to April Ed Reporter NUMBER 207 THE NEWSPAPER OF EDUCATION RIGHTS APRIL 2003 At Wisconsin High School, Students Behave As They Eat APPLETON, WI - The Central Alternative High School in Appleton instituted a new healthy lunch program in 1997, administered by a private group called Natural Ovens. Suddenly, the revolving discipline plans, metal detectors, security officers, and all the other tactics schools currently use to deal with rowdy students were no longer needed. Could the answer to public schools' discipline woes really lie in what students eat? According to a newsletter called Pure Facts, eliminating behavior problems was as simple for Central Alternative's principal LuAnn Coenen as eliminating junk food. School lunch menus changed drastically. All the soda and junk food vending machines were removed. Fast-food hamburgers, fries, and burritos were tossed out, and replaced with healthy alternatives including fresh salads, meats, whole grain breads, and fruits. The results have been impressive. Pure Facts reports that "grades are up" at the high school, "truancy is no longer a problem, arguments are rare, and teachers are able to spend their time teaching."

Throughout the United States, public school alternative education programs vary, depending on individual program objectives, goals and scope of program implementation. These pages were assembled as a research tool for policymakers interested in learning more about alternative education policy, programs and students. Studies National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) Requires Adobe's Acrobat Reader "The 2001 'District Survey of Alternative Schools and Programs,' conducted NCES through its Fast Response Survey System (FRSS), is the first national study of public alternative schools and programs to provide data on topics related to the availability of public alternative schools and programs, enrollment, staffing, and services. The focus of the study is on alternative schools and programs that serve students who are at risk of educational failure, as indicated by poor grades, truancy, disruptive behavior, suspension, pregnancy, or similar factors associated with early withdrawal from school. The study presents a snapshot of alternative schools and programs for at-risk students during the 2000-01 school year."

On a planet far, far away in a galaxy called the Milky Way, there was a public outcry for a stronger education of their young adults. The story goes that the young adults on the planet Earth were not educated in complete financial strategies. Many were graduating from high school and college (their education system) unable to make sound decisions about financial matters that they encounter from day to day. To ensure the continued leadership of the planet Earth, Firstar Corporation sponsored the solution. Firstar gathered a team of creative developers, educators and curriculum consultants to work tirelessly through the night to create "Escape From Knab, The Adventure." This simulation provides the young Earthlings with a fun set of tools to help prepare them to make financial decisions. And in the end, Earthlings will maintain their position as a leader in the galaxy. As one of the Midwest's largest financial institutions, we know all about investments stocks, bonds, annuities, certificates of deposit, and so on. We're also experienced in another kind of investment the investment we make every day in our communities, our neighborhoods, and in one another. Our objective of "Escape From Knab" was to use existing Internet technology to position Firstar as a provider of information and tools necessary to enable young adults to make better financial decisions.

December 2003 Forests of opportunity For 75 years school forests have planted the seeds to restore the outdoors and instill outdoor ethics in Wisconsin students. Jeremy Solin Home of the school forest tradition A community and conservation legacy in Stevens Point Trees spark alternative ways to teach and learn Leaders in training ... Spotlighting school forest champions "T urn it on its back. That way it won’t scratch you,” one of the college-aged “Woodsies” told the student holding the Blanding’s turtle. The turtle had just been captured by Fort McCoy biologist Tim Wilder after students located it using radio telemetry. We were tracking and capturing radio-tagged turtles as part of the West Salem school forest overnight program for seventh graders. These 50 students are just a few of the school-aged children and adults enjoying exciting opportunities at school forests across the state. Home of the school forest tradition Wisconsin has a long and proud school forest tradition. The school forest idea was borrowed from Australia by Dean Russell of the UW College of Agriculture assisted by Wakelin “Ranger Mac” McNeel, state 4-H leader, and Fred Trenk, a UW-Extension Forester. Russell had spearheaded legislation to set aside community forests. The Community Forest Law of 1927 allowed schools, organizations and municipalities to own property specifically managed for forestry. The first school forests in the United States were registered in Wisconsin the following year at Laona, Wabeno and Crandon.

Ron Roen relayed to B-2 bomber pilot Air Force Capt. David Thompson. “Could you make some noise so we could at least hear you if we can’t see you?” Roen asked.
