    Extractions: Brian Kleiner, Rebecca Porch, and Elizabeth Farris This article was originally published as the Executive Summary of the Statistical Analysis Report of the same name. The sample survey data are from the NCES Fast Response Survey System (FRSS) Background Concern among the public, educators, and policymakers about violence, weapons, and drugs on elementary and secondary school campuses, balanced with concern about sending disruptive and potentially dangerous students "out on the streets," has spawned an increased interest in alternative schools and programs (U.S. Department of Education 1996). Many students who, for one reason or another, are not succeeding in regular public schools are being sent to alternative placements. In general, students are referred to alternative schools and programs if they 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 (Paglin and Fager 1997). The 2001 "District Survey of Alternative Schools and Programs," conducted by the

    Extractions: March 2002 ICI Project Studies Alternative Schools Given the recent increase in the number of alternative schools, we have little current information about the characteristics, structure, and practices of alternative schools nationwide, including how and the extent to which alternative schools serve students with disabilities. In addition, very little is known about the impact of the IDEA 1997 requirements (especially those related to Interim Alternative Education Settings) on these schools and implications for students with disabilities. The ICI Alternative Schools Project will explore these issues via four studies: Study I. An examination of alternative schools nationwide to provide a broad understanding of alternative schools and of the extent to which they serve students with disabilities. Study II. An in-depth state-level examination of alternative schools yielding at least five state-level case studies describing alternative school policies and practices for students with disabilities. Study III.

    Extractions: Framework Objectives Home Page Site Map The Alternative Schools Project was funded in 2001 by the US Department of Education, Office of Special Education, to study the policies and practices of alternative schools across the country as well as the extent to which and how students with disabilities are served in these programs. Estimates suggest that there are more than 20,000 alternative schools in operation in the United States, and in Minnesota, alone, over 100,000 students accessed alternative education on a full/part time basis during the 2000-2001 school year. The number of alternative schools as well as the number of students educated in these schools has increased significantly over recent years. Oftentimes these schools serve students who are not successful in the traditional school setting, and those who are considered at risk of school failure including students with and without disabilities (see findings from the Enrollment Options Project A succinct definition of alternative schools/programs is difficult to provide. However, the research literature suggests that many alternative schools share several characteristics: they usually have small enrollment and provide individualized instruction, a supportive environment, programming and curriculum opportunities relevant to student interests and goals, and flexibility in structure. Yet, with the rapid growth of alternative schools, there is a need for current information about the kinds of alternative schools in existence nationwide.

Resource Links The Department of Instructional Programs and Alternative Schools (IPAS) provides extended learning opportunities for students attending school in their local districts. These opportunities include summer enrichment programs in the arts, marine biology, foreign language, archaeology, outdoor education and writing. During the school year students are provided with opportunities to work directly with artists of many kinds; to participate in science exploratory programs, such as the JASON Project; to explore the world first- hand in outdoor and environmental programs; and to challenge themselves through competing in the Odyssey of the Mind and Academic Decathlon. Students are also provided with opportunities to learn conflict resolution and mentoring skills. In addition to these learning extension programs, the department runs four alternative schools for high school-age students. These include the Cultural Arts Center, for students who are gifted in the arts, the Teenage Parenting Program for teenage mothers; and the Program for Comprehensive Alternative Education (P.A.C.E.) and the Positive Alternative Twilight School (PATHS), which are designed to help students who are struggling in high school.
