Deets, Executive Director of the National Retired Teachers Association, (Division of AARP) in their January house organ. The fundamental goal of our publication is to educate, motivate and elucidate and as many readers realize, we highlight special efforts from time to time such as the strengthening and modernizing of the IDEA and that is why this issue hits that subject so hard and with your support our country will do it. Quoting Deets: "It's time to govern. That means putting aside partisan political interests and putting the interests of the American people first. Following the electionin which less than half of those eligible votedboth parties talked of bipartisanship and cooperation. We hope this talk of bipartisan cooperation will result in bipartisan solutions." We will be pleased to send his entire column to all who send a SASE. IDEA.

Extractions: "Parents in one Baton Rouge, La., neighborhood were relieved when they first learned of the opening of a charter school. But they became disheartened to learn the school, which would be 80 percent black, could run afoul of a court order for racially balanced schools. "'As I see it, the children should go where their parents want them to go,' said Greta Ridley, a 65-year-old retiree who is raising her grandson. The 10-year-old had repeated fourth grade at a school Ridley didn't like. "She felt lucky to get him into another charter school this year. But many more families are waiting, since Justice Department opposition postponed the opening of The United Charter School, scheduled to move into a vacant inner city mall this year in a predominantly black neighborhood. "Nationwide, decades-old desegregation decrees — meant to help families like Ridley's gain equal access to a quality education — are being targeted by poor, minority parents who see charter schools, vouchers and other education experiments as their best hope. They and other charter school advocates, tired of waiting for the progress promised by desegregation, are joining in lawsuits to end court-ordered actions pending in 20 states."

Extractions: "The education system should strive to provide all students in Saskatchewan schools with access to a comprehensive range of programs and services that meet their individual needs." Saskatchewan is the fifth largest province in Canada, covering 651,900 square kilometres or 65.2 million hectares of area. Approximately 1,000,000 people live in the province. To serve this relatively sparse and culturally diverse population, the education system is committed to the goal of accessibility. Nearly two-thirds (62 percent) of the total number of schools in the province are rural schools. Schools in towns and villages are included in this number. However, of students in Grades 10 to 12, only 39 percent attend rural schools. This means that although the majority of schools are in rural areas, the majority of secondary students attend urban schools. Accessibility: Policies, Programs, and Initiatives (Process Indicators) All students in Saskatchewan have access to French education. Two types of designated programs are available. In the Type A program, French is the language of instruction for all courses except English. Type A programs typically serve the education needs of Fransaskois students. In the Type B Immersion/Bilingual program, more than half of the total instruction is in French. Most schools also offer a Core French program which uses French as the language of instruction for a time allotment determined by the school division.
