Tech securitymillage
Voters in Muskegon County will vote on February 25, 2014 on a proposed Technology Enhancement Millage of one mill for ten years. This would equate to a $41 annual tax increase for the average homeowner. The millage is urgently needed to prepare students for future technical jobs, as the current funding per student is lower than in 2007 and schools rely on bonds to fund technology needs, resulting in interest charges. School districts in the county have requested the Intermediate School District hold this vote in order to provide stable funding for technology and equipment to keep students competitive. Funds could support technology for security, networks, support services and staff training in addition to equipment.

Delaware County LWV Standardized testing Forum
Standardized testing places a significant burden on students and teachers in Muncie Community Schools. Students must take numerous standardized tests each year, totaling hundreds of minutes of testing time, which increases test anxiety. This extensive testing has shifted the curriculum focus to test preparation and reduced time for subjects like science, social studies, arts, and electives. Teachers feel pressure to narrow their teaching to only the content covered on the high-stakes tests. An effective assessment system would evaluate student growth over time using multiple measures and provide timely feedback to guide instruction.

MCS Opening Day Presentation
The document outlines the priorities and goals for the 2016 school year. It discusses implementing a strategic planning process to address concerns around finances, facilities, academic performance, special education services, technology use, and communication. The strategic plan will focus on five key areas and involve staff and community surveys and feedback. The superintendent requests staff engagement in setting the district's direction, applying for grants, sharing successes, and prioritizing student needs.
Alternatives to Suspension & Explusion
The document discusses alternatives to reducing suspensions and expulsions. It addresses questions about who is typically suspended, why students are suspended, differences among subgroups, and what disciplinary approaches are being used successfully in some school districts. Specifically, it notes that the top reasons for suspensions are defiance, disruptive behavior, and verbal aggression. It also discusses positive behavior interventions and supports (PBIS), restorative justice practices, increasing parent involvement, and using digital learning and differentiated instruction to improve student engagement and reduce infractions.
Assessing the Whole School
This document discusses assessing schools using a more holistic, whole-school approach rather than just standardized test scores. It proposes tracking additional metrics like student growth over time, course success rates, attendance, extracurricular participation, and discipline rates. The district established measurable criteria with the board before implementing 1:1 technology and shared regular data and results with the board, staff, and community. Educators need to define alternative criteria for effectively judging schools and communicating that information more broadly.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
