Extractions: HILLSIDE SCHOOL NARRATIVE - STATE REPORT What stands out clearly at Hillside Intermediate School is our commitment to providing a nurturing climate that promotes academic excellence, cooperation, respect, responsibility and a sense of self-worth in all members of our school community. The intermediate schools educational program provides a solid academic foundation and offers a rich environment in the arts. One of the major accomplishments for the 2000-2001 school year was our selection for recognition as one of ten Star Schools in the State of New Jersey. This prestigious award, the highest honor given by the New Jersey State Department of Education, was awarded to Hillside School for its outstanding record of performance in terms of student results and school accomplishments, our specialization in Environmental Education that promotes high student achievement, and the exemplary teaching practices found in our classrooms. Our list of student accomplishments for the 2000-2001 school year is varied and reflective of the high academic standards and commitment to enrichment opportunities set by the district. The brief description, which follows, is intended as a snapshot, or a glimpse of whom we are and what we hope to become. Efforts to enhance the quality of instruction are ongoing. Responding to new initiatives and directions from the New Jersey Department of Education, the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards (NJCCCS) are used as the basis of planning. Consistent with the suggestions in the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards (NJCCCS), teachers included specific objectives for instructional improvement in their annual professional improvement plans. Additionally, we offered district inservice courses on a regular basis to promote ongoing professional staff development. Inservice efforts most recently stressed a technology plan to enable teachers to integrate computers into their daily classroom instruction and include databases, spreadsheets and word processing in addition to accessing Internet resources.

Extractions: (201) 836-7622 (World) Colleges are often prime targets for organizational development ("OD"). The shared governance model often leads to blurry power relationships; in any case, different groups with different goals need to work together to achieve the best results. The roles of each group must be clearly defined, and communication between groups becomes essential. In many schools, there is also competition for limited resources, exacerbating the situation. Because of the many factors involved in academic performance, student retention, and other outcomes, it is also hard to determine a clear "cause and effect." This makes it hard to map actions to results and to know what is truly effective. Many colleges are also faced with the need to cut costs dramatically, while increasing academic support and investing in technology. In some cases, the students or their families are faced with lower incomes, and cannot pay tuition increases; in others, colleges must work harder to recruit students; and, in some cases, schools or colleges are facing budget cutbacks or large expenses for maintenance and construction. In these cases, new opportunities for saving time and money must be found without hurting service.

Extractions: Standards for Required Professional Development of Teachers PREAMBLE The New Jersey Professional Teaching Standards Board believes that educators must be dedicated to a continuous plan of professional development that begins with their preservice activities, that continues with their induction into the profession, and that extends through the life of their professional career in education through on-going and sustained professional development endeavors. We further believe that effective educators are life-long learners, that professional development must be an on-going process of refining skills, inquiring into practice, and developing new methods. The professional strengths and accomplishments of the school faculty at large must work to complement the learning needs and requirements of the entire student population. Professional development activities must also complement both the needs of the educator and the goals and objectives of the school district. Further, these activities must focus on the conditions which affect student learning in order for teachers to develop the knowledge and expertise needed to enable students to function as independent thinkers and creative learners both in the school community and in the larger environment of society as a whole. In addition, professional development must engage each educator in a collegial and collaborative dialogue with other educators and education partners to broaden the knowledge and expertise needed to guide students toward the successful attainment and mastery of the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards and to create supportive and effective schools.

Extractions: A r c h i v e d I n f o r m a t i o n Educational Programs That Work - 1995 New Jersey Youth Corps. A full-time program combining academic instruction with community service, designed to provide dropouts with services not found in traditional adult education programs. Audience Approved by PEP for dropouts, age 16-25. Description The New Jersey Youth Corps is a full-time instructional and community service program for school dropouts, with the completion of a high school curriculum and employment as the ultimate goals for each student. Students spend a half day in academic instruction and a half day in community service work. A one-month orientation that includes academic and interest/aptitude assessment is followed by placement in community service work crew projects and continuation in basic skills classes. The Youth Corps program uses an individualized instructional approach. Instructors diagnose skill areas and design a prescription for remediation in the form of an individual educational plan with career-related goals. Instruction and service interrelate, with new skills and experiences shared between the two components. The curriculum is driven by the General Educational Development Test (GED). A Corps is typically staffed by basic skills instructor(s), an employability skills instructor, counselor(s), crew leader(s), a job developer, coordinator, and a program director. Staff are full-time and programs operate a minimum of five days per week, 12 months per year. Staff development, monitoring, and evaluation are integrated into the Youth Corps management.
