    http://www.p2pays.org/mercury/school.htm
    
    Extractions: Introduction to Mercury General Information Health and Environment Mercury in Households ... FAQs and Related Links Schools do not constitute one of the largest sources of mercury to the environment. However, they are places where mercury and children may come together, and where appropriate health and environmental protection behaviors should be modeled. Schools can also be catalysts for reducing mercury in homes of their students (and staff). Most high schools and middle schools have had one or more mercury spills General Sites for Information on Mercury in Schools Abstract: This Web site gives a comprehensive look at mercury in schools. The site covers such topics as where mercury can be found in schools, why mercury is important, what to do when mercury spills, mercury at home, tools for assisting in teaching about mercury, successful school mercury programs, and information on current legislation concerning mercury in schools.

    http://www.mnservcoop.org/legislative_initiatives.htm
    
    Extractions: - Minnesota schools and communities need connectivity to the information highway. The Minnesota Service Cooperatives' support permanent state funded electronic connectivity to schools. Each school district and Service Cooperative need a minimum level of connectivity should be a T1 or equivalent. Each school building and Service Cooperative office should have Internet access provided under this provision. Insurance Issues - The Service Cooperatives will continue to provide health insurance pools to assist schools, cities, counties, and other governmental agencies. Seventeen years ago, Minnesota schools began cooperating to provide health insurance pools through the Service Cooperatives. These pools have dramatically lowered the administrative costs of insurance. These documented savings have greatly benefited the students of Minnesota by freeing up more money for direct instruction. The pools were developed in an open competitive marketplace. They continue to operate that way today through voluntary participation. The pools are locally governed, by the members, with input from labor/management advisory committees. The past few years, cities, counties, and other governmental agencies, have joined together to provide insurance pools. They have saved additional money by cooperating to provide health insurance. Their design is similar to the schools' arrangement of regional pools, governed locally with input from the members.

25. ISD77: Mankato Area Public Schools: Finance Sense
    accounting for the rollins to the general education formula, K as a growing numberof individuals, recognize minnesota for its good schools, well-educated  
    http://www.isd77.k12.mn.us/budget/financesense1.php
    
    Extractions: The most significant component of the General Education Revenue Formula is the basic allowance which currently provides $3,964 per pupil unit. It is the basic allowance that is of greatest interest and concern, because every district and every student benefits. The basic allowance represents the minimum level of funding for schools. From the 1991-1992 school year through 2000-2001, the formula appears to have increased by 30 percent, from $3,050 to $3,964 per pupil unit. Those numbers can be misleading if one fails to consider the following: After accounting for the roll-ins to the general education formula, K-12 funding has increased 21% between 1991 and 2001. During that same ten-year period the consumer price index has increased by 23.5 percent. The basic funding allowance currently produces less money in inflation adjusted dollars than it did ten years ago, even though the costs and responsibilities of public education have grown.

    http://www.isd77.k12.mn.us/budget/financesense2.php
    
    Extractions: On occasion, the legislature increases funding to school districts, but it designates how those funds must be spent. Money provided for class size reduction is an example of this. Additional dollars were provided to school districts by the state, but they were available only for class size reduction in grades one through three.

28. IPM: Integrated Pest Management
    minnesota Department of Health, Model Pesticide Notices and Memorandum to schools,www.health.state.mn.us/divs/ eh/esa/hra general resources.  
    http://www.moea.state.mn.us/ee/ipm.cfm
    
    Extractions: Routine pesticide use is typical in schools across the country. Many parents and educators are concerned about pesticide use in schools because of potential health effects, including cancer, neurological effects, and birth defects. Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is an alternative approach to controlling pests using the most appropriate and least hazardous techniques. Preventing pest infestations in the first place is stressed. The main elements of a good IPM program are: Monitoring to establish whether there is a pest problem Identifying the causes of the pest problem Addressing the causes by changing conditions to prevent problems Utilizing pest suppression techniques, if necessary, that are based on mechanical and biological controls.

    Extractions: In response to teacher demand, the Minnesota Humanities Commission is developing specific programs to meet the humanities needs of elementary schools. In 2002-2003 MHC will focus its K-6 work in these areas: support for schools using the Core Knowledge Sequence , development and promotion of American Indian Studies in the Elementary grades, and a K-6 research project to determine the broader humanities needs of elementary educators. In 1998 the Humanities Commission began supporting Minnesota schools that use the Core Knowledge Sequence as their humanities core curricula in grades K-8. Core Knowledge is a program based on the idea that to achieve academic excellence, greater fairness, and higher literacy, elementary and middle schools need a solid, specific core curriculum to help children establish strong foundations of knowledge, grade by grade. We currently work with more than thirty schools that use this content-rich scope and sequence to improve teaching and learning in the humanities.

    Extractions: Previous section Next section Contents Pathways ... home page Few concerted efforts at comprehensive education technology planning and/or infrastructure are being made in the state. The Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) is beginning to re-initiate its efforts. Local Efforts Each district is responsible for planning. Those with Interactive TV (about 34 co-ops) do work together in long-range planning. State Efforts State efforts have focused on the Internet. About 1,000 schools are participating in a two-year demonstration. The MDE also is taking the lead for Mastery/Outcome software. A plan will be ready by August 1994. Financial Aspects Few, if any, new dollars are available. The SEA is requesting eight staff positions to help schools plan distance education and computer networks. Key Groups in Educational Technology Higher education has taken the lead in telecommunications networks and lines for data, video, and voice. K-12 will ultimately cooperate with these agencies. Senator LeRoy Stumpf of Thief River Falls is the primary legislative person interested in technology. His area of concentration is higher education. Both Senator Stumpf and the MDE want K-12 to piggyback with higher education.

Major components of each state's law are included here. For the complete legislation or more information, use the state contact names and Internet addresses provided. Brief information on the status of choice or charters for Iowa and Indiana also are included. State Contact: URL: http://www.state.il.us/Gov/press/charter.htm Major Components of the Illinois Charter School Law (Article 27A of the School Code) Illinois's 1996 charter law allows 45 charter schools: 15 in Chicago, 15 in the counties surrounding Chicago, and 15 elsewhere. While this cap on the number of charter schools in Illinois is fairly restrictive for such a large state, it is not unusual. Many states limit the number of charter schools initially. A local school board must approve the charter school, although the board's decision can be appealed to the state board. The state does not provide funding for start-up costs. However, the Illinois State Board of Education received a federal grant of $788,000 per year (for potentially three years) to stimulate and support the establishment of charter schools.
