Lastly is a brief overview about Impact Aid The Big Three Points to Make Quality of Life outstanding education to military dependents and military parents have repeatedly said they want these schools to remain perks Burden to Local Communities * Forcing local public school systems to take on DDESS students will create a financial burden for them.

Extractions: High Schools Reluctant To Comply By James Straub According to the law, each school receiving federal funding must provide names, addresses and phone numbers of secondary school students when requested by military or college recruiters. ELLSWORTHSigned into law last January, the No Child Left Behind Act is President Bushs education reform plan. The law contains the most sweeping changes in the Elementary and Secondary Education Act since enactment in 1965. Area superintendents have been surprised, however, to learn that the law also contains a provision that contradicts many school policies prohibiting the release of personal student information to military and college recruiters. According to the law, each school receiving federal funding must provide names, addresses and phone numbers of secondary school students when requested by military or college recruiters. The law allows parents to opt out of the requirement by requesting that no information about their children be released without their written consent.

Alternative programs are available for students in grades 7-12. In 1999, 64% of Edward Little High School students went on to higher education, and 5% entered military service. Auburn spends $4,604 per K-8 student and $5,707 per 9-12 student. In 1997 completion of three building projects resulted in a major restructuring of schools, providing a better educational environment. The Master Plan for Facilities is being implemented this year with another renovation building project this year for one of the smaller elementary schools. Auburn has put considerable effort into expanding technological access to learning. Students and teachers are integrating technology into all aspects of the learning process. All buildings have Internet access and a fiber optic network will soon connect the larger schools and City buildings.

Extractions: Updated March 31, 2003 Send Thanks to the US Military! Please be aware that Sunday, April 13, 2003 the Military-Brats Registry will be offline from 11:00 until 16:00 Pacific time for circuit maintenance. During this time the web site and Email will be unavailable. The wiring and circuits are being replaced. There may be sporadic down time during the week that follows while everything gets tested. Sorry for the inconvenience, but this will improve performance in the long run. Since January 1, 2003 more than 3,000 new members have joined the Military-Brats Registry. Have you checked lately to see if your friends have registered yet? I have had the pleasure of hearing from some new members who found someone they had been trying to find for years. They had both signed up on the very same day! I have received so many ideas, links, offers, etc. regarding the war and what we can do to support military families and our men and women overseas. It takes a lot of time to research these and determine which are legitimate and which are mere attempts to profit from the situation. Please be careful with anything you do! One example is a web site that was put up to sell bumper stickers that say "support our troops." There was no support for the troops or their families in the $4.00 charge for a bumper sticker. The Department of Defense is urging the public not to send mail or care packages to troops overseas unless they are family members, friends or loved ones. Instead, the Pentagon is urging the public to log on to the following web sites to send virtual thank-you cards and calling-card donations to help troops stay in contact with their loved ones:
