STATE ACTIONS ILLINOIS GOVERNOR'S PLAN TO RESTRUCTURE STATE EDUCATION BOARD MEETS NEW COMPLICATIONS. Source: Rockford Register (6/03/04). NORTH CAROLINA BOARD OBJECTS TO BILL THAT WOULD CHANGE SCHOOL CALENDARS TO HELP TOURISM. NEW COLORADO EDUCATION LAWS IMPACT CHARTER SCHOOL AUTHORIZATION. The Colorado State Board of Education will have the power to approve charter schools under a new bill signed into law by Gov. Bill Owens. Under the new charter program, charter school organizers will be able to bypass local school districts that reject or refuse to hear requests to set up charter schools. The law, created in response to several districts where local boards have restricted new charter schools, also creates a charter school institute as an agency of the state department of education. Two additional laws were also approved concerning charter schools. One requires greater accountability for charter schools and their authorizing districts, while the other creates a system for monitoring student academic progress over time.

WISCONSIN ATOD EDUCATION NETWORK History In the fall of 1988, the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (DPI) announced the formation of the Wisconsin ATOD Education Network (WATODEN) through the “Count On Me” initiative. As a strong component of DPI’s strategy to prevent alcohol, tobacco, and other drug use among the state’s youth, the Network was established to provide sharing of information, pooling of resources, and technical assistance to school districts in the development of their local K-12 Comprehensive ATOD programs. The network was organized through the efforts of DPI, twelve regional facilitators, and the twelve Cooperative Educational Service Agencies (CESAs). F ocus The Network has three primary objectives: Assist school districts in the development of comprehensive, integrated, alcohol, tobacco, and other drug education (ATOD) programs. Assist in developing partnerships at the community, county, regional, state, and national levels in order for facilitate cooperation and sharing, maximize resources, and reduce the duplication of services. Assist schools and communities in the development of an integrated framework to foster health, resilient, successful learners.

The chiropractic state boards of Florida, Nebraska, Ohio and Wisconsin have now joined the state boards of Alabama, Arizona, Idaho, California and North Carolina in announcing their official support of the ACA's federal lawsuit. The gist of the lawsuit is to thwart the new proposed Medicare+Choice regulations (Medicare's managed care program) that would permit MDs and DOs to give spinal manipulations to Medicare patients in lieu of chiropractors. The resolution says, in essence: "It's time to stand firm that chiropractors are the only licensed practitioners that can provide the service of manual manipulation of the spine to correct a subluxation," asserted James Mertz,DC,DABCR, president of the ACA. He challenged all the state chiropractic boards to "protect the rights and authority of the profession." "Every delegate should contact their chairman of the board," suggested Daryl Wills,DC, ACA vice president. "An issue and motion this crucial takes three minutes to get passed."

"An equal opportunity for a sound basic education...takes into account districts with disproportionate numbers of disabled students, economically disadvantaged students, and students with limited English language skills. So long as the legislature is providing sufficient resources so that school districts offer students the equal opportunity for a sound basic education as required by the constitution, the state school finance system will pass constitutional muster." Wisconsin Supreme Court, Vincent v. Voight Formula changes must address issues raised by the state Supreme Court Vincent v. Voight decision - adequate state resources must be provided for disadvantaged students (low-income, special education, bilingual); If a "foundation" is used to provide "a sound basic education," then the "foundation" must rise annually, commensurate with the Consumer Price Index, and also take into account regional cost of living differences;

Home Funding Special Education Needs Jon Peacock and Debby Meyer Executive Summary Wisconsin statutes call for state reimbursement of 63% of "aidable" special education costs from a categorical aid appropriation; yet the actual reimbursement rate has fallen far below that standard and is expected to be about 34% this year. The gap between the 63% standard in the statutes and the actual reimbursement level amounted to $223.5 million in 1997-98. The special education appropriation has declined from 13.3% of state school aid in 1989-90 to 6.9% this year, and it would drop to 6.3% in FY 2000-01 under the proposed budget. Although categorical aid for special education does not count against a district’s revenue growth limits, that exemption provides no relief to the vast majority of districts as long as the categorical appropriation remains frozen at its current level. The Audit Bureau report concluded that, "if special education costs had increased at the same rate as regular education from FY 1992-93 through FY 1997-98, $59.9 million more would have been available in FY 1997-98 to fund regular education."
