STATE OF NEVADA OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL Protecting Citizens, Solving Problems, Making Government Work FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Steve George April 21, 1999 ATTORNEY GENERAL RE-RELEASES PAMPHLET WHICH PROVIDES TIPS FOR KEEPING SCHOOLS SAFE FROM VIOLENCE As a result of yesterday's tragic shooting in Colorado, Attorney General Frankie Sue Del Papa has re-released a brochure that was first jointly published by the Nevada Department of Education and the Nevada Attorney General's office in September, 1998, entitled, School Safety; A Message to the Community. The brochure includes ten steps kids can take to help prevent violence in their school, along with outlining ten basic points of a Safe School Plan. The brochure was originally released as part of the National Youth Violence and School Safety Initiative spearheaded by the National Association of Attorneys General (NAAG) and the National School Boards Association (NSBA). "Consistently we see stories on the local news about kids bringing loaded guns to school or other acts of violence involving students on our school campuses," Del Papa said. "Yesterday's tragedy in Littleton, Colorado reminds all of us to reflect on the importance of joining together to better enhance and coordinate our efforts to reduce the chances of such an incident taking place in our State." "Youth violence is not simply a school problem," Del Papa said. "It is a social problem that cuts across governmental sectors and socioeconomic levels. It is a health-care problem, an economic problem, a justice problem and an education problem. Schools cannot on their own eradicate the causes and consequences of violence. However, schools can be a powerful force for change, for preserving the hopes and opportunities of the children they educate, and for supporting the families in their communities."

Evaluation of Charter Schools in Nevada             Since Minnesota passed the first charter school law, 80% of the states across the nation have followed suit, and as of the 1999-2000 academic year, there were almost 1,700 charter schools in operation.  Nevada is a relative newcomer to this process, but during 2001-2002, there were already 10 charter schools in Nevada, and more are on the way.  This report looks at the oldest five of these schools, relying primarily on site visits utilizing document review, interviews, and observations.  One of the schools is completing its fourth year of operations; the others are completing their third.  Because charter schools vary considerably from each other, each is reported upon individually; however, there also seem to be some general statements that can be made. Fiscal Challenges Instructional Programs             As in many other states, charter schools in Nevada are often faced with developing curriculum and instructional strategies within a short time frame.  This forces the founders to choose between creating their own programs or buying programs “off the shelf” because they can be implemented quickly.  Nevada’s first charter schools have tended to take the second approach, relying heavily on such programs as NovaNet, Accelerated Reader, Core Knowledge, and Child U.  It is too soon to tell if these schools will evolve into more creative programming to meet the individual needs of their specific clientele, although there are some hopeful signs.

General Management Do you have an education or career question for our online advisor that isn't answered here? Please e-mail What do general managers do? General managers and top executives plan, organize, direct, control, and coordinate the operations of an organization and its major departments or programs. Although they have a wide range of titles such as chief executive officer, president, executive vice president, owner, partner- all formulate policies and direct the operations of businesses and corporations. The nature of high level executives' responsibilities depends upon the size of the organization. In large organizations, their duties are highly specialized. In smaller organizations, such as independent retail stores or small manufacturers, a partner, owner, or general manager is often also responsible for purchasing, hiring, training, quality control, and day-to-day supervisory duties. What degree options are available in general managment? Undergraduates can earn a bachelor¹s degree in management or take courses in management as part of a business degree. MBA students can choose a concentration in management, and some schools offer master¹s degrees and PhDs in general management.

Review of Charter School Legislation Provisions Related to Students with Disabilities, September 1998 General Legislative Provisions This first part of the review examines statutory provisions that have implications for, but do not necessarily address directly, students with disabilities or special education. Various provisions in state statutes grant charter schools varying levels of authority to govern themselves and to make decisions regarding the operation of the schools, including decisions related to personnel, curriculum, and expenditures. The extent of a charter school's operational autonomy will have an impact on how special education programs are implemented in these schools. As described in the following paragraphs, statutory provisions that give higher levels of autonomy include ones that allow or require charter schools to (1) operate independent from local school districts, (2) make their own personnel decisions, (3) be exempt from state and district education laws and regulations, (4) assume liability for their actions, and (5) receive their funding directly from the state. Independence from districts.
