A Challenge To Our Communities Violent attacks in Oregon, Pennsylvania, Arkansas, kentucky, Mississippi, and inmany and their families, school staffs, boards of education, and communities http://www.familyeducation.com/article/0,1120,49-10004,00.html
Extractions: A CALL TO ACTION Violence in American society has caused concerns for safety to become a high priority among our citizens. We are concerned about safety in our homes, our communities, and our schools. Schools have been-and must continue to be-safe havens for our students. Schools are still the safest place for children to be. But even one incident of violence is too many. More must be done. Violent attacks in Oregon, Pennsylvania, Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, and in many urban areas throughout the country during the 1997-98 school year compel us to seek stronger actions in the months ahead. Those who have experienced violencestudents and their families, school staffs, boards of education, and communitieshave joined together to develop solutions that will prevent such violence from reoccurring. All members of the school community must respond by strengthening their own commitment through aggressive, well designed, and fully funded initiatives so that all children can continue to safely learn and grow. We know that violence is not just a school problem-it is a community problem and requires a united community response if solutions are to be found. Violence among our youth is a public health crisis and should be treated as such. When threatened by disease our society comes together to find vaccines. Together we must now take preventive measures and find "vaccines" to eradicate violence in American society.

Extractions: Judy Saks Published in partnership with the National School Boards Foundation Ever been to a school board meeting? Were you absolutely riveted, or did you spend the evening nodding off in your seat? Either way, you probably caught a close glimpse of American democracy in action. Since their inception more than 200 years ago, school boards have been an institution of government very close to the people. School boards, which are unique to America, have always had a fundamental commitment to local, democratic decision-making and to the lay control of education. Vision, structure, accountability, advocacy Nowadays, many school boards are using four key concepts to define their roles in governing education: vision, structure, accountability, and advocacy. These boards create a shared vision of the community's educational system; employ a superintendent and adopt goals, policies, and a budget in harmony with that vision; continually assess the effectiveness of the district's policies; and serve as advocates for children by establishing strong relationships with parents and involving other community residents or agencies to help meet children's needs.

THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC In the mid-1800s, the revolutionary idea of mass public education created the need for an efficient, economical system capable of handling large numbers of students. Graded educationthe practice of classifying and dividing students by agespread rapidly throughout the United States and has remained the standard until the present (Goodlad and Anderson 1987). In the 1990s, educators and citizens are reevaluating their schools and proposing reforms to meet the needs of diverse social and economic groups. Nongraded primary education is a key component of many reform proposals, including the Kentucky Educational Reform Act and the Oregon Educational Act for the 21st Century. Many experimental nongraded programs tried in the sixties and early seventies failed due to inadequate understanding, lack of administrative and community support, and poorly planned implementation. Today's nongraded model is supported by additional decades of research and refined by the study of successful programs.

Extractions: Welcome to the Kentucky State Archives Genealogical Reference Correspondence Policy Catalog of Kentucky State Archives Holdings Catalog of Kentucky Archival and Manuscripts Collections ... Support Us Kentucky's Vital Statistics General Information The Government of the Commonwealth of Kentucky kept no birth or death records prior to 1852. The first vital statistics law, passed by the Kentucky General Assembly in January, 1852, required the Auditor's Office assessors of the tax to record births, marriages, and deaths each year as they assessed property for the tax. The Auditor's Office never did the job well, and constantly complained about this additional task assigned it. This vital statistics law was repealed in 1862. The original lists, returns, and certificates of births, marriages, and deaths which survive are in the State Archives. They are arranged by county and are for the years 1852-1859. Between 1862 and 1911, when the present Office of Vital Statistics was established, several attempts were made to again require the recording of births, marriages, and deaths at the state government level. Some records for 1874-1878 survive as a result of a second vital statistics law. A few scattered records exist for the years 1860-1873 and 1879-1911. These records, arranged by county and date, are also in the State Archives
