Extractions: After the first European study tours in 1998 and 1999, Advocates determined that encouraging teams of four or more people from a single state to participate in the study tours would be the most effective way to build support for Rights. Respect. Responsibility. (3Rs). Since then, teams that participated in study tours have been working energetically in California and Oregon. In fact, Planned Parenthood of Southwestern Oregon and the California team are Advocates' first state-based partners in the 3Rs Campaign California Adapting the 3Rs to a state environment was a major goal of Advocates' 2000 European study tour. Under a two-year grant from The California Wellness Foundation, Advocates hosted four California policy experts on the tour: Carmen Narvarez, Vice President for External Relations for the Public Health Institute; Beatrice Olivera Stotzer, Chief Executive Officer of New Capital; Cathryn Rivera, Deputy Secretary for Cabinet Affairs; Winna Davis, Director of Programs for the City of San Francisco Department of Children, Youth and Families. California presents an unusual policy climate. California's public schools are not required to teach sex education; however, if schools provide sex education, they must stress abstinence

Extractions: A CALL TO ACTION Violence in American society has caused concerns for safety to become a high priority among our citizens. We are concerned about safety in our homes, our communities, and our schools. Schools have been-and must continue to be-safe havens for our students. Schools are still the safest place for children to be. But even one incident of violence is too many. More must be done. Violent attacks in Oregon, Pennsylvania, Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, and in many urban areas throughout the country during the 1997-98 school year compel us to seek stronger actions in the months ahead. Those who have experienced violencestudents and their families, school staffs, boards of education, and communitieshave joined together to develop solutions that will prevent such violence from reoccurring. All members of the school community must respond by strengthening their own commitment through aggressive, well designed, and fully funded initiatives so that all children can continue to safely learn and grow. We know that violence is not just a school problem-it is a community problem and requires a united community response if solutions are to be found. Violence among our youth is a public health crisis and should be treated as such. When threatened by disease our society comes together to find vaccines. Together we must now take preventive measures and find "vaccines" to eradicate violence in American society.

Extractions: Clearinghouse on Educational Management Previous (Digest 083) Next (Digest 085) By Ellen Todras During the past decade, the fundamentals of American education have been examined with a fine-tooth comb. As consensus grows that the current educational system is largely unable to keep pace with the nation's changing needs, more attention is being devoted to reform. Areas touched by reform efforts include school choice, school-based management, teacher effectiveness, national goals, and student assessment, to name a few. Recently, school governance has also come under scrutiny. Local school boards"the traditional linchpin of American educational governance" (Twentieth Century Fund 1992) are encountering criticism from several sources: state governments, educational experts, and the very populations they attempt to represent. What Problems Undermine School Board Effectiveness? Frustration with school boards has reached crisis proportions in several "hot spots" across the nation. In Chicago, for example, most decision-making authority has been transferred to elected local school councils. Ken-tucky's Education Reform Act of 1990 grants far-reaching powers to the state and to local school councils (Pipho 1992). And in 1991 the state of Massachusetts abolished the nation's first elected school board in Boston and replaced it with one appointed by the mayor. The problem seems to be exacerbated in large cities, where schools struggle to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse population in an increasingly dangerous setting. Al- though only 4 percent of American school districts enroll more than 10,000 students, almost half of our nation's students attend these districts (Olson and Bradley 1992). The size of such districts is in itself a problem.

THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC After more than a decade of marginally effective reform, diverse stakeholders are coming to the same conclusion: Demanding more from our schools is not enoughthe system itself (at local, district, and state levels) must be fundamentally changed. Piecemeal reform efforts of the past, some suggest, have been tantamount to applying a bandaid to assuage schools' ills when what is needed is major surgery. Systemic reform is proposed as an alternative to tinkering and add-on programs that, critics say, will not meet the demands of business, parents, communities, and students for fundamental change and significant improvement in schools. Although support for systemic reform has been growing, change is never easy. Many superintendents, school boards, and principals harbor concerns about how the roles that are familiar to them will be affected by systemic reform.

Extractions: Cascade Policy Institute Charter Schools Kiwi-style by The Honorable Maurice P. McTigue, Q.S.O. March, 1999 Oregonians are grappling with major policy questions about education, from improving student performance to funding, charter schools to classroom size. More than a decade ago, New Zealand, a country only slightly larger than Oregon, faced similar, if not worse, problems. We "Kiwis" made bold, across-the-board reforms, with positive results. New Zealand's government had created a massive, unresponsive educational system where parents had little or no influence. The system was failing to meet acceptable achievement levels. There was outright bureaucratic capture, and little or no performance accountability. The system consumed 70 cents of every education dollar, with only 30 cents spent in the classroom. Education was administered by a very bureaucratic structure. The Ministry of Education, the central body which answered to the federal government, made all of the rules and controlled expenditures with prescriptive regulations. It determined the curriculum, how it would be taught, and how performance would be measured. In every region, the ministry established Boards of Education to whom it delegated limited power. Since reforms were implemented, some 67 cents of each education dollar is spent in the classroom, which is more than double the previous amount. Parents play the dominant role in the educational choices for their children. Learning has improved, and classroom size is down.
