Extractions: This was a great relief to three families from Goldfield, Nevada, whom Child Protective Services had expressly threatened with removal of their children unless they signed their county's homeschool paperwork (in accordance with the old regulations). They signed their county's forms under protest and with the express condition that any agreement they entered into would be binding only until the State Board amended the regulations. Home School Legal Defense Association is pleased with the changes that were enacted by the State Board of Education. We were, however, surprised and disappointed at the last-minute objections that kept us from improving the law governing homeschool consultants. Nevada is one of only two states in the country that legally require a consultant for new homeschoolers. In the other 48 states, local support groups voluntarily give new homeschoolers a helping hand, with excellent results. The consistent experience of other states proves that there is no need for a law mandating consultants for new homeschoolers. HSLDA is committed to work together with Nevada's homeschool organizations to repeal the consultant law sometime in the future.

Extractions: Twelve Years of Education Reform: The Dismal Track Record The fate of public education reform efforts in Nevada over the past 12 years bears out this judgment, as those who have tried to change the system have time and again seen reform measures watered down, ignored, not properly implemented, repealed, and mired in turf battles and power struggles. Statewide Education Goals This Blueprint for Educational Excellence was approved by the State Board of Education. An early attempt at developing a strategic plan, this document included 40 policy initiatives to be accomplished by the Board to improve education.

She was responsible for ensuring the Department of Education and the state's 17 school districts carried out legislation and complied with budgets, statutes and regulations.

Extractions: by Pat Hickey arents have demanded that schools get better. Community leaders have warned that society can ill afford for them to get any worse. And for better or worse, the push to raise academic standards and improve student test scores has clearly become a national obsession. Nevada is no exception. Current expectations could hardly be greater. Feeling enormous pressure for schools to perform better, Nevada legislators and educators are now facing the test of their lives to meet those expectations. The Nevada Education Reform Act of 1997 mandates that higher academic standards be implemented in K-12 schools throughout the state beginning in fall of 1999. The State Board of Education has already approved higher benchmark standards in English, math and science proposed by the newly formed Council to Establish Academic Standards for Public Schools. BDR No. 1: Professional Development Centers Would allocate funding for the next biennium to establish and equip four regional centers for professional development (PDCs) within Clark, Douglas, Elko and Washoe school districts. Teachers and administrators would be trained in the new standards in measuring pupil achievement and analyzing and interpreting test scores, and in teaching higher-level content areas and basic skills such as reading instruction using phonics and basic mathematic computation.
