Extractions: Volume 3, Issue 12 December 1999 Focusing on Education Reforms at Your School, in Your State Legislature, and in Congress California on Front Lines Concerning Charter School Bargaining New legislation approved in October by Governor Gray Davis threatens the way charter schools have been conducting business in California. After their legislative proposal to require collective bargaining in charter schools failed, California teacher unions successfully lobbied for Assembly Bill 631, a compromise almost as egregious. A.B. 631 affects new and existing charter schools. Before new applications to operate as a charter school will be approved, the charter board must decide whether 1) to be an independent public employer, or 2) to be subject to the district's collective bargaining negotiations with the incumbent employee unions. With well over 250,000 members, the teacher union likely to capture the most additional members will be the California Teachers Association the NEA affiliate.

Extractions: e-mail this story to a friend write a letter to the editor (oped@csps.com) In your June 4 editorial "Rethinking Parent-Teacher Ties," you questioned the relevance of PTA to parents and children, suggested that the National PTA's request for a $1 dues increase was too much, and reported that many parents and PTAs are considering converting to PTOs (parent-teacher-organizations). National PTA has been advocating for the health, welfare, and education of all of America's children for more than 100 years. PTA lobbyists in our nation's capital work closely with elected officials to develop and support legislation to improve the lives of children. My state PTA organization is also a major force in passing effective legislation. Recent laws include a graduated drivers license for teens, stricter traffic penalties in school zones, and pesticide-use notification to schools and communities. Our full-time lobbyist is currently working very hard to help us pass anti-bullying legislation. People looking toward PTOs and away from PTA often do not understand the global need to advocatefor children beyond their communities, or realize that for a small fee ($7 to $10 in our state) each year, they can help affect positive change for children through PTA's parent-involvement and legislative programs. That's not too much to ask, when you consider that the future of our nation will soon be in their hands.

Extractions: To Lemuel, a young runaway slave who has been employed by a Quaker widow, life in Gettysburg is everything he had dreamt it would be until the Union and Confederate armies converge on his doorstep in July of 1863. Jacob McLain, a private in the Confederate Army, has come to Gettysburg "all fired up" for the showdown that would become the defining moment of the Civil War. It is Jacob's unlikely friendship with Lemuel that puts both boys in harm's way. Along with exposing conflicts between patriotism and pacifism, the play reveals to audiences the burden of families torn apart by differing beliefs.
