			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="article-content" style="text-align: justify;">
<p>I sent my son to a public school for grades one to eight before getting fed up with the system. He just wasn&#8217;t learning at a pace that was satisfactory to me, and his standardized test scores reflected that fact. Many of his teachers seemed to care about the students and did the best with what they had, but with class sizes averaging 30 or more pupils, it was hard for them to provide individual attention where necessary. Since there&#8217;s still time to turn my son&#8217;s academic career around so he can get into a good college, I&#8217;ve started researching private high schools in the area.</p>
<p>Private high schools offer many advantages that their public school counterparts simply cannot match. Foremost among these is a low teacher to student ratio that is guaranteed to give my child the extra help he needs, all in a timely manner. In elementary school, we often didn&#8217;t know there were any problems with my son&#8217;s grades until report cards were sent home in the spring. By then it was far too late to address the situation, leaving my son to spend many frustrating summers wondering what went wrong during. In private high schools where teachers have only 15 or 20 students to worry about, this kind of frustration can be avoided.</p>
<p>Another advantage that private high schools offer is the opportunity for students to learn in a college preparatory setting. Most private high schools hold their students to very rigorous academic standards that often exceed state and national requirements. By emphasizing the importance of developing good study habits and grades early on, students emerge with a deeper appreciation of education in general, and are better prepared to deal with the demands of college life. Furthermore, if I choose a boarding school for my son, he&#8217;ll get an even more authentic pre-college experience by learning to live with peers away from home. I&#8217;ve read that experiences like this effectively reduce instances of students going wild at college because they&#8217;re already used to being away from their parents. I&#8217;m on board for anything that can help my son succeed later!</p>
<p>A third advantage of private high schools comes from networking. This is especially true if your child is lucky enough to attend an elite institution, where the name cachet and a recommendation from the principal can open doors to the Ivy League later on. Plus, the chance to develop long-lasting relationships with classmates that can carry over into the business world is an invaluable opportunity in itself.<span id="more-269"></span></p>
<p>The cost of attending private high schools is definitely an obstacle for many families, but scholarships and financial aid are usually available. I want to give my son every advantage possible when it comes to his education, so I&#8217;m very willing to make sacrifices in this regard. I hope we can get the application and enrollment process completed by August!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="article-content" style="text-align: justify;">
<p>The 2005-2006 school year was a tremendous success for the Florida schools, especially at the middle school level. The Florida schools&#8217; educators across the state worked hard to improve student academic achievement levels and were rewarded for their efforts. The state of Florida awarded grades of A or B to 75 percent of its public schools. Not only did this show extraordinary progress for the Florida schools, but it also was a new record for the state.</p>
<p>The strongest gains were made in the middle schools. For example, Lake County has nine middle schools. Seven earned a grade of A last year, with the other two earning Bs. One of the B schools missed receiving an A by only one point. Osceola County has ten middle schools of which six earned an A, three earned a B, and one received a C grade.</p>
<p>Middle school is a crucial stage of academic achievement for students. It is the time when students transition from developing the basic skills learned in elementary school to learning how to put them into practice. Here, students begin to learn more in-depth content in order to develop the foundation that is needed in high school. Secondary education then builds on the foundation by digging deeper into the content and using it to help students develop their minds and become well-rounded adults.</p>
<p>If the middle schools in Florida do their jobs right, as they did last year, then students will achieve a greater success in high school, be more likely to go on to college, and have a better chance to obtain and excel in a good career.</p>
<p>The major problems facing all middle schools in Florida educators are the hormonal changes that youth experience at this age and the intense peer pressure students must deal with on a daily basis. These challenges make it easy for middle school students to get off track.</p>
<p>Florida schools&#8217; educators are working hard to divert the students&#8217; attention away from these problems by getting them more focused on learning. Many Florida schools are looking at last year&#8217;s strategies to review what worked and what did not. They plan to duplicate last year&#8217;s success, with the hopes of doing even better this year.</p>
<p>Seminole County schools, for example, improved the reading scores of struggling students by incorporating two research-based programs into its reading curriculum. They encouraged their Florida schools to use small reading groups with frequent monitoring of progress and goal setting for each student. This year, they plan to use this successful technique with their math curriculum.<span id="more-267"></span></p>
<p>Another example is Volusia County schools. Last year, they mapped their curriculum to set specific goals for each grade level and then assessed student progress based on achieving the goals.</p>
<p>It is obvious that educators in the Florida schools are committed to building this year on the progress they made last year. As with public schools across the nation, there will be no shortage of challenges facing the Florida schools. Unlike many public schools across the nation, the Florida schools are making progress for the youth of their state.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="article-content" style="text-align: justify;">
<p>In June 2006, the city announced a proposed operating budget of $14 billion for the New York City schools. Parents and educators are still waiting pessimistically to see the final cut.</p>
<p>Though this year&#8217;s unveiling of the NYC schools budget was received more peacefully than in recent years, the city&#8217;s past track record makes optimism difficult. Last year&#8217;s proposed budget was drastically different after the final cuts were made. Students returning to school last September found many classes eliminated due to budget cuts. Parents and educators alike created enough turmoil in the high schools that many of the programs were restored.</p>
<p>Everyone in the New York City schools system, including parents, have accepted that the New York City schools do not have enough money, and yet they see little being done about it. Teachers continue to buy their own supplies, while parents help to provide for classroom needs. Even students accept the overcrowding and facilities that are in disrepair as the norm.</p>
<p>Mayor Michael Bloomberg states that he has increased the NYC schools budget by $2.5 billion since he took office, but it is not enough. This year&#8217;s New York City schools budget has only a slight increase from last year, it banks on receiving money from elsewhere that is not guaranteed, and makes assumptions that are not probable, as well as other problems.</p>
<p>First, New York City schools Chancellor Joel Klein has confirmed that the budget increase will go primarily to pay for the increased costs in fuel and fringe benefits, noting that transportation and heating are essential to operating the schools. Though the $1 billion increase raises per student funding to $910, very little will reach the classroom. Most will be used to cover administrative costs. For teachers and parents already stretched thin from funding supplies that should be paid for by the New York City schools, this is not good news.</p>
<p>Second, the proposed budget makes two assumptions: (1) The New York City schools will receive almost $2 billion for capital expenses from Albany in connection with a lawsuit with the state, and (2) teachers will agree to a contract with only a modest salary increase.</p>
<p>The money expected from the state has not been included in the state&#8217;s budget, since the governor has appealed the court&#8217;s decision. Even if the New York City schools prevail in court, there will be no money for the 2006-2007 school year from the state for this lawsuit.<span id="more-265"></span></p>
<p>Teachers are not expected to accept the proposed contract, since they and the Council of Supervisors and Administrators (about 5,500 principals and upper level staff) have been working without a contract for the past two years. The United Federation of Teachers already has criticized the mayor for not using the city&#8217;s $3.3 billion surplus to settle the standoff. The mayor argues that the surplus is only temporary, while stating that he wants the contracts to be as other city workers. The teachers, police, and firefighters have been strongly opposing the mayor&#8217;s contract proposals for two years. Such a teachers&#8217; contract would take away many of the job protections that are now present, such as eliminating seniority rules and making it easier to fire a teacher.</p>
<p>Another problem is Klein, whom advocates for the New York City schools say has spent too much money on consultants and costly bureaucrats with little educational experience. These costs, as well as others, can easily be hidden in the vague language of the proposed budget.</p>
<p>Lastly, the proposed New York City schools budget must survive the political wrangling of the city council members. The past has shown that members lobby for changes and programs that benefit only their constituents, rather than all New York City schools.</p>
<p>Though last year&#8217;s standardized test scores rose sharply, the New York City schools have a lot of challenges to face this school year, and it does not look as though this budget will help to resolve them. There is not a lot of optimism about this proposed budget.</p>

<p>There are a number of home schooling resources available for parents who want to supplement a packaged curriculum or build their own from scratch.</p>
<p>No matter which camp you are in, you are going to need some curriculum supplements. You can get workbooks, motivational tools, bulletin board supplies and more online.</p>
<p>The best part of buying online is that it is convenient and easy. You can shop any time of the day or night and find just what you need.</p>
<p>Another factor to consider is that when you buy online, you can compare products and prices. That way, you&#8217;ll get the best value for the money. Home schooling can get very expensive with all of the add ons unless you are careful with the money you spend.</p>
<p>A third benefit is that you can pick products which match your values. No matter what your religion (or lack thereof), you can find home schooling resources which emphasize your values.</p>
<p>Fourth, if your curriculum lacks certain elements that you want to emphasize, you can easily supplement it with resources you find through online suppliers. For instance, if you want your children to put on a science fair, you can easily find books and workbooks to help you do it.</p>
<p>Finally, you will find a wide variety of materials. If you go to the bricks and mortar school supply shop in your town, they will only be able to carry a limited supply because of space considerations. This is not an issue on the internet. You can literally buy any product that is on the market when you shop on the internet.<span id="more-252"></span></p>
<p>The internet is a valuable place to find home schooling resources.</p>

<p>A Project Guide gives directions and possibilities to a child on how to pursue their project. At the same time, it weaves a variety of learning objectives into the project activities. These learning objectives enhance and enrich the project, making it more memorable to the child.</p>
<p>When I was a middle school child, I made several attempts at building a go-cart. None of those attempts was successful. I paid a welder to do some welding; my plan did not work and my money was lost. My most successful contraption pitched me onto the asphalt, leaving me bloody, because I had not considered &#8220;play&#8221; in the wheels and breaking requirements. Yet I remember what I did learn from those attempts far more vividly than anything in &#8220;school.&#8221;</p>
<p>What if I had been presented with a guide, back then in the &#8217;60s, and told that my creative desire to construct a go-cart out of anything I could get my hands on was my schooling and that there were some physics and measurement realities I needed to consider in order to end up with a successful go-cart. What if I had also been given some reading about making go-carts and had been asked to write a report and share with others my go-cart project. And that I could do all that instead of sitting in a boring desk all day? In fact, what if there were educational money I could access to make the whole thing work?</p>
<p>There is no question that I would have reached much further than I actually did, and learned far more, most of which would be remembered today.</p>
<p>Parents should treat the guides as guides, not as controls. A child may take the project in directions not found in the guide. Great! Maybe parts of the guide are a bit much for a particular child. Feel free to scale them back; but to ensure a breadth of learning, don&#8217;t eliminate those parts.</p>
<p>As you work with the guides, you will discover that they are very flexible. The guides can easily be adapted from one child to the next or from one part of the country to the next. A simple bit of Internet research can replace those things that are not useful to your family with things that are. Because you have the guide already, you know exactly what to look for when you make changes.<span id="more-250"></span></p>
<p>Doing the project is what catches the enthusiasm of the child, but sharing the project with others is both what makes it valuable, and what seals learning in a child&#8217;s mind. Food from the garden should be cooked and served to the family in at least one special festival meal. A short story should be polished and read aloud for the enjoyment of others. Even better, it should be posted on the Internet for strangers to read and enjoy.</p>
<p>The child should join any sort of membership club or association related to the project, both to be part of something bigger than themselves, and to gain access to experience mentors. Any kind of show or contest is a great incentive and place to share the project with others.</p>
<p>Projects will always begin with great excitement, but the parents must help impart encouragement to their children to persevere until the project is finished and sent in for evaluation.</p>
<p>But at the same time, the project should remain a joy to the child, especially during the middle school years. Too much academic work required can easily make the whole thing too much like school. Remember, we learn little of what is &#8220;scholastic,&#8221; we learn far more of what is real and needful to us.</p>
