Extractions: October 2001 A new goal is challenging teachers: All students, with or without disabilities, including English language learners and students who are "falling between the cracks," are to achieve in the general education curriculum. For students with disabilities, access to the general education curriculum is mandated by the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act Amendments of 1997 (IDEA '97). Attitudes and Belief Systems Improved student learning requires teachers, schools, and districts to give up unproductive traditions and beliefs, replacing them with validated practices and a full understanding of the intent of the law. Successful student access to the general education curriculum is most likely when there is general acceptance of the following principles: Responsibility for the learning outcomes of special education students is equally shared by the classroom teacher and the special education teacher.

Extractions: Character is the aim of true education; and science, history and literature are but means used to accomplish this desired end. Character is not the result of chance, but of continuous right thinking and right acting. True education seeks to make men and women not only good mathematicians, proficient linguists, profound scientists, or brilliant literary lights, but also, honest men, with virtue, temperance, and brotherly love. It seeks to make men and women who prize truth, justice, wisdom, benevolence and self-control as the choicest acquisitions of a successful life. It is regrettable that modern education so little emphasizes these fundamental elements of true character.

Extractions: Bridget Fare, 538-1509 Governor Mike Leavitt today named 40 schools that will share $4 million in Highly Impacted Schools funding to meet the special needs of their disadvantaged students. The governor made the announcement at Whittier Elementary School in Salt Lake City, one of the 40 Highly Impacted Schools that will receive funding. The governor developed the Highly Impacted Schools program to provide additional resources and individual assistance to schools with at-risk students. Nearly 20,000 students across the state will benefit from the program this year. "These children face many obstacles in their lives that make it difficult for them to receive the education they need to live fulfilling and productive lives," the governor said. "Through the Highly Impacted Schools program we will be able to reach out to these children on a more individual basis and meet their unique educational needs while helping them develop self-esteem and confidence." The Highly Impacted Schools program is the governor's second major effort to shift away from one-size-fits all funding toward targeted plans to address specific needs and initiatives. His other major program, Centennial Schools, rewards schools that are willing to rethink education with new, bold and innovative ways of teaching children.
