Book excerpt: California has more than 1,000 school and community college (K-14) districts. When they need to build, repair or equip their campuses, these districts must ask voters to approve the issuance of general obligation (GO) bonds and raise property tax rates - a big ask. In this third edition of Win-Win: An Insider's Guide to School Bonds, Dale Scott, a leading financial advisor for California public schools and community colleges, demystifies the complex, often-challenging process that gives step-by-step insights into developing, structuring and selling GO bonds. This updated and expanded edition includes a new section on financing teacher-staff housing with GO Bonds. The bold and innovative financing idea, believed to be the first of its kind, allows school districts and community colleges to attract and retain teachers and staff. The transaction was the winner of The Bond Buyer's 2018 Small Issuer Deal of the Year. Drawing on three decades of work as an advisor to school and community college districts, Dale, a financial advisor, campaign manager and former Wall Street investment banker, walks readers through each step of the bond issuance process, answering the many questions he's been asked over the years. Hard-hitting, detailed and humorous, Win-Win explores why voters approve some bond measures and reject others, explains how bond deals are put together, and offers tips on selecting the right team of professionals and avoiding scandals like those that have plagued poorly structured GO bond efforts. Written for district administrators, school board members, campaign volunteers, taxpayer organizations and concerned citizens, Win-Win is an upbeat guide on the complex processes of California school bonds, showing that when executed correctly, the teamwork needed to pass a school bond can have a transformative effect on both schools and people's sense of their role in the community.

However help is at hand in the third edition of a popular title originally published in 1999. Holt updates the status of school facilities in the U.S. and provides new information on the relationship between school climate and student achievement. New to this edition is a discussion of the importance of technology in school bond issues and construction. The nuts and bolts of securing the funding for facility construction, a component of the building process usually overlooked in training administrators, are clearly outlined in chapters that begin with a look at the problem of aging schools and follow through the planning and project development phasesto the bond campaign and election day. Filled with tips, checklists, and insights on the details from experienced school leaders, this is the perfect guide to consult every step on the way to victory.

Book excerpt: There are more than 1,000 school and community college (K-14) districts in California. To build, repair, or equip their campuses, they must ask voters to approve a general obligation (GO) bond and raise their property taxes rates -- a big ask. While GO bonds have become a multi-billion-dollar market, there has to date been no "how to" guide for district administrators, elected officials, taxpayer organizations, and concerned citizens. There is now. With hard-earned wisdom and wry wit, Dale Scott, California's leading K-14 financial advisor, has written WIN WIN: An Insider's Guide to School Bonds to demystify the complex, often challenging process that goes on "underneath the hood" in developing, structuring, passing, and selling a GO bond. Drawing on three decades of work as an advisor to school districts and community college districts, investment banker on Wall Street, financial advisor, and campaign manager, Dale walks readers through each step of the process, answering the many questions he's been asked over the years. Hard-hitting, detailed, and humorous, WIN WIN explores and explains why some bond elections pass but others fail, how bond deals are put together, tips on selecting the right team of professionals, how to avoid recent scandals surrounding GO bonds, and how to tell if tax rate estimates are accurate or just wishful thinking. Scott's book is an upbeat demystification of the complex processes of California school bonds, showing that when executed correctly, the teamwork of passing a school bond can have a transformative effect on both local schools and people's sense of their role in their community.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book on Black public schooling in St. Louis is the first to fully explore deep racialized antagonisms in St. Louis, Missouri. It accomplishes this by addressing the white supremacist context and anti-Black policies that resulted. In addition, this work attends directly to community agitation and protest against racist school policies. The book begins with post-Civil War schooling of Black children to the important Liddell case that declared unconstitutional the St. Louis Public Schools. The judicial wrangling in the Liddell case, its aftermath, and community reaction against it awaits a next book by the authors of Anti-blackness and public schools.
Download or read book California Earthquakes written by Carl-Henry Geschwind and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2003-04-30 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Book Prize of the Forum for the History of Science in America from the History of Science Society In 1906, after an earthquake wiped out much of San Francisco, leading California officials and scientists described the disaster as a one-time occurrence and assured the public that it had nothing to worry about. California Earthquakes explains how, over time, this attitude changed, and Californians came to accept earthquakes as a significant threat, as well as to understand how science and technology could reduce this threat. Carl-Henry Geschwind tells the story of the small group of scientists and engineers who—in tension with real estate speculators and other pro-growth forces, private and public—developed the scientific and political infrastructure necessary to implement greater earthquake awareness. Through their political connections, these reformers succeeded in building a state apparatus in which regulators could work together with scientists and engineers to reduce earthquake hazards. Geschwind details the conflicts among scientists and engineers about how best to reduce these risks, and he outlines the dramatic twentieth-century advances in our understanding of earthquakes—their causes and how we can try to prepare for them. Tracing the history of seismology and the rise of the regulatory state and of environmental awareness, California Earthquakes tells how earthquake-hazard management came about, why some groups assisted and others fought it, and how scientists and engineers helped shape it.
