Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public education in the United States is a function of the States. In discharging this responsibility each State has recognized that a considerable degree of local control of education is essential. The establishment of local school districts and the creation of local boards of education to administer school district affairs reflect this point of view. This decentralized control of education places heavy responsibilities on local boards of education. Although State mandatory laws and regulations governing education must be followed, numerous decisions on educational matters have been left to the discretion of local boards. It is not surprising that educational policy making is commonly regarded as the most important function of local school boards. This bulletin is the first in a series of studies on local school board policy. The purpose of this study is to provide information dealing with the characteristics of a number of board manuals. These characteristics have not been presented as recommendations, but rather as an indication of what some boards have considered to be important elements of policy manual. This bulletin is divided into the following chapters: (1) Introduction; (2) General features of the manuals; (3) Board of Education bylaws; (4) Employed personnel administration; (5) The school program; (6) Business management; and (7) School-community relations. (Contains 9 tables and 4 footnotes.) [Best copy available has been provided.].
Download or read book Curriculum 21 written by Heidi Hayes Jacobs and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2010-01-05 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What year are you preparing your students for? 1973? 1995? Can you honestly say that your school's curriculum and the program you use are preparing your students for 2015 or 2020? Are you even preparing them for today?" With those provocative questions, author and educator Heidi Hayes Jacobs launches a powerful case for overhauling, updating, and injecting life into the K-12 curriculum. Sharing her expertise as a world-renowned curriculum designer and calling upon the collective wisdom of 10 education thought leaders, Jacobs provides insight and inspiration in the following key areas: * Content and assessment: How to identify what to keep, what to cut, and what to create, and where portfolios and other new kinds of assessment fit into the picture. * Program structures: How to improve our use of time and space and groupings of students and staff. * Technology: How it's transforming teaching, and how to take advantage of students' natural facility with technology. * Media literacy: The essential issues to address, and the best resources for helping students become informed users of multiple forms of media. * Globalization: What steps to take to help students gain a global perspective. * Sustainability: How to instill enduring values and beliefs that will lead to healthier local, national, and global communities. * Habits of mind: The thinking habits that students, teachers, and administrators need to develop and practice to succeed in school, work, and life. The answers to these questions and many more make Curriculum 21 the ideal guide for transforming our schools into what they must become: learning organizations that match the times in which we live.

Book excerpt: By New Jersey law, school boards are required to develop written policies governing their operations as a public body and the operation of the school district. This guide is intended to give board members and administrators a working knowledge of the policy process in local school district governance. Provided are background information, step-by-step instructions for developing policies, an action plan for district governance manual development, and a process for keeping a manual up to date. Bylaws are an internal mechanism for board organization and procedure. Four sample bylaws demonstrate content, format, language, indexing, and referencing. All local boards deal with the same policy topics: (1) community relations; (2) educational administration; (3) business and noninstructional operations; (4) instructional and support personnel; (5) students; (6) instruction, and (8) construction, remodeling, and renovation. Nine sample policies are provided. A sample action plan is provided for a district that lacks many policies and is embarking on a manual development project. The appendix contains the New Jersey School Boards Association codification system, divided into eight sections, each with its own index, identifying number, and descriptive title. (MLF)
