Hispanic Magazine.com - July/August 2002 - Forum Puerto Ricans in Chicago and New York, Mexican Americans in california and the childrenout of public schools and sending them to private or parochial schools. http://www.hispaniconline.com/magazine/2002/july-aug/Forum/
Extractions: Few issues will affect the lives of Hispanic children more than the June U.S. Supreme Court decision that declares it constitutional for government to issue school vouchers so parents may send their children to private or parochial schools. The debate in the national media on the merits and the importance of the decision has been furious. Much has centered on the separation between church and state and how most school vouchers are used to send children to religious schools. Yet little has been heard of how Hispanics view the issue or are affected by it. But we do, and the issue is one that affects all of us, regardless of where we came from. It affects Puerto Ricans in Chicago and New York, Mexican Americans in California and the South West, Cuban Americans in South Florida, Salvadorans in Washington, D. C. and in Los Angeles. And most important, it affects citizens and non-citizens alike. For many years the white middle and upper class in this country has given lip-service to the principle of not allowing discrimination in public schools. This came after the Supreme Court issued its now famous Brown v. the School Board decision in 1954. It found that segregating children in schools on the basis of race is unconstitutional. For years after that, the mantra was that if children of all races were put together in the same schools, everyone would benefit, and children of all colors would receive a much better education.

American Boys' Clothes: The 1960s--Chicago And California He seems to have begun wearing long pants at about 10 years of age.. parochialSchools. I attended parochial school in both Chicago and california. http://histclo.hispeed.com/country/us/co-us19606par.html
Extractions: I grew up in Chicago and California. My mother had European tastes concerning fashions. I wore short pants to Catholic School through the 8th grade. This was not "acceptable" to other boys in the 1960s and 70s so my friend Michael and I were always dodging abuse. An 8th grader in grey or blue short pants and knee socks was considered a sissy. I remember sone pretty rough back then. but know I find it a bit exciting. Let me say that I was not from a rich or affluent family. my father was a real estate broker. His accounts were business structures; i.e. office building/space, factories, land and upscale houses. So he was not around alot unless he had business dinners and entertained clients at the house. Needless to say, my sister and I were at our best for these. As the youngest of the two kids, I felt I was just a "show piece". I can only guess that my mom with the British influence and the ties to Paris thought that a proper you boy dressed a certain way and that was that. I also remember that she as I guess many mothers at that time followed Jackie Kennedy fashions and we all remember JohnJohn in short pants well into his early teens. He sure didn't help. [HBC note: John appears to have worn short pants including short pamts suits as a boy. HBC has not noted him wearing short pants into his eraly teens. He seems to have begun wearing long pants at about 10 years of age.] Parochial Schools

Extractions: for Computers in Parochial Schools In conjunction with a hearing set for tomorrow, the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America, through its Institute for Public Affairs , urged the United States Supreme Court to permit parochial schools to receive federal education subsidies for computers technology hardware and software. The Union, along with other Orthodox Jewish groups, filed a friend of the court brief stating its position last August. The California based U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and the New Orleans based U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit have issued conflicting rulings over whether federal provision of these funds violates the U.S. Constitution's Establishment Clause. The brief joined in by the Orthodox Union contends that the Court's recent jurisprudence in the church-state arena has shifted and that there is no justification under current precedents to continue to exclude parochial schools from religion-neutral government subsidies and that such exclusion violated the principle that the government should be neutral toward religion.

Prop5 95/5 will help refocus californias education system on its parochial SchoolsSurvive Without Taking Money From The Classrooms For Administrative Purposes http://www.civicweb.com/yesprop223/prop5.html
Extractions: States bloated education bureaucracy needs diet The 95/5 initiative, submitted by Tyrone Vahedi of Childrens Rights 2000 will impose more rigid accounting requirements by requiring school districts to publish the percentage of funds expended on administrative costs and report the expenditure information to the state Board of Education. 95/5 will help refocus Californias education system on its primary objective, which is to educate, not administrate. The Education Administrators Union is up in arms because this initiative is a blatant frontal assault on its territory. It has no intention of surrendering even an inch, and is mobilizing its forces for a major political showdown. Its not often that Californians get the chance to improve our public education system without being slammed with higher taxes, so lets take advantage of this rare opportunity.
