Home Common Logon Table of Contents Students ... Student Services The paradigm shift, since I took office is that the Department of Education will be primarily a service organization, helping school districts and charter schools achieve more academic success. The Department is also an organization that assures compliance, and we will have to be conscientious about that, but the compliance function will be secondary. The primary function is now: service. If you would like to read about our 8 primary goals, please click here to read my inaugural speech. It is my hope that the Department of Education will be a place of intellectual passion and ferment, processing many ideas, and effectively implementing the best of them.

February 11, 2001 An educational work in progress They've expanded student choice, but overall conclusions on performance are hard to draw By Hipolito R. Corella and L. Anne Newell ARIZONA DAILY STAR Arizona's charter schools are living up to their legal mandate to increase student choice, charter experts say. Whether they have improved student achievement - another mandate - is a little more in doubt. Experts say it's hard to generalize charter school performance because their missions are as dissimilar as college preparatory and dropout prevention. For the latter, simply keeping students in school is success - no matter how they score on AIMS and Stanford 9 tests. The educational reform effort has grown so fast here during the past five years that the state is likely to reach its charter school saturation point soon. "We have charter schools in every county. And they're wildly diverse. There are schools in more than 80 communities," says Mary Gifford, director of education policy for the Phoenix-based Goldwater Institute. "The fact that we have 401 charter school sites says we have accomplished the first" requirement. Gifford says the Goldwater Institute, a conservative political think tank, will release a study soon that shows charter school freshmen typically fare worse than mainstream freshmen on standardized tests.

TEACHERS FOR TOMORROW PRESENTATION: Dr. Clara Lovett, former President of Northern Arizona University made a presentation to the Board about a project that she is coordinating to recruit older college graduates into the teaching profession. There will be six pilot states and interest was expressed by the Board in having Arizona organize a work group in preparation for consideration of becoming one of the pilot states since Arizona is experiencing such a serious teacher shortage. Dr. Lovett explained the project as one to erase the 200 year old stereotype of young, inexperienced teachers by recruiting people who are experienced and can demonstrate what they can do. CONSENT AGENDA: The question was raised about a school district not in compliance with the USFR being approved to receive a $300,000 grant. The response was that the grant is an existing multi-year grant that cannot be changed. The Board indicated that future RFPs may have an addition that indicates grants can be withheld if there is noncompliance with the USFR.
