Extractions: Last July, Louisiana Governor Mike Foster, a Republican, signed a $2.65 million line item in the state budget that authorized significant new funds for school-based health centers. This would not be so unusual unless one takes into account that, only a few years before, Las Vegas odds makers would have cast the probability of this outcome as something approximating the cancellation of Mardi Gras. What happened over time in Louisiana was due, in large measure, to superb public relations work, and it's symptomatic of a trend that has seen school-based health centers grow from 350 nationally in 1992 to nearly 900 this year. School-based healthcare that addresses a wide range of health problems traces its origins to the early 70s when medical visionaries in Boston, St. Paul and Dallas independently recognized that bringing healthcare to children in schools could overcome barriers to needed care. For many children, health problems - from sports injuries to depression, from asthma to substance abuse -stood a much better chance of being prevented and treated in schoo ls than in traditional medical settings. After all, emergency rooms weren't designed to solve basic health problems, and for children who lacked a regular source of care, a doctor's office or a community clinic was either unaffordable or located away from home or school. In the latter case, getting care was difficult for working parents and others who rarely have hours available to arrange appointments, travel to the health provider, and return home hours later.

Library Media Specialists help prepare students with information literacy skills that will last a lifetime. As recommended in the ALA publication, Information Power: Building Partnerships for Learning , Library Media Specialists promote the following: Independent Learning Social Responsibility Patricia Taylor, Assistant Superintendent of Instruction in the Frederick County Public Schools, remembers a special librarian during her career. A special librarian who "invited all staff-and especially her principal-into an understanding of how to do our work more effectively. That librarian and many after her have reminded me of the power of a place in a school where all of us who are there to teach and to learn can come together and find the resources to do our best." Mrs. Taylor was speaking of Clara Beard, now retired and living in Richmond, who said, "If children can read and comprehend, they can have anything they want. When we serve children, we serve the future. They are our immortality."

Extractions: What gets measured, gets money, some policy analysts say. The flip sidewhat gets money, gets measuredmay be equally true. Perhaps for both reasons, state policymakers are showing greater interest in getting accurate, up-to-date data on technology in public schools. Many states conduct at least limited surveys of the hardware, software, and infrastructure in their schools, or they glean those data from the surveys of market-data firms. But state officials say they need comparable data from all the states, so leaders can make comparisons and highlight the policies and practices that prove most effective. Currently, data on school technology are "very fragmented, very scattered, not compiled, not standardized," says Mary Fulton, a policy analyst at the Education Commission of the States in Denver. She notes that data collected by states are often inconsistent with those collected by other states. "It's often comparing apples and oranges, cranberries and peanuts," Fulton says. One problem is that surveys by different states often don't use common definitionssuch as what constitutes a "modern" computer.

Extractions: Works Cited Return to the top of this document. It is the mission of the school library media specialist to ensure that students are effective users of ideas and information (Kuhlthau 1993, 11). Dedicated library media specialists should make it their goals to understand that children and youth need access to information to find answers to problems, to pursue independent discovery of who they are and who they want to become, to obtain information that can assist them to overcome their weaknesses and enhance their strengths, and to allow them to build lifelong information-seeking patterns. Age should not be a barrier to the ability to access, receive, and utilize information. (Hooten 1989, 267) School media specialists have been presented with a challenge in obtaining their mission with the introduction of online catalogs into school libraries.

Extractions: Preliminary Guidance for Migrant Education Program, Title I, Part C Public Law 103-382 To help all children reach high academic standards, many states, school districts, and schools will need a new kind of technical assistance. They will need comprehensive assistance that is driven by the needs of families and children and that can provide tools and information to help them leverage all available resources in order to improve teaching and learning for all children. To that end, the Department is creating regional technical assistance centers to provide comprehensive, high-quality assistance and information. The Depart ment is also changing the way it relates to the field by shifting its focus from monitoring for compliance to providing support to enhance program quality. The Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE), which houses the Office of Migrant Education, has a new organizational structure that is built around ten regional service teams. Existing program offices, including the Office of Migrant Education, will retain a small program base, but will provide most services to OESE grantees through teams that have staff with expertise in OESE's programs. This new structure signals a new relationship with states and local operating agencies. Rather than focus on providing program-specific advice, the restructured OESE will use cross-program teams to encourage and support state and local efforts to integra te services and collaborate across programs. In anticipation of this change, OESE began in 1994-95 to conduct integrated reviews of federally funded education programs. Integrated reviews are on-site observations and assessments performed by a team of s taff members from two or more program offices within the Department. Each focused on the progress of systemic reform efforts within a state and explored how individual federal programs fit within that broad reform effort. The Office of Migrant Education participated in all of the initial integrated reviews.

Extractions: Kathy Ruhmann lives in a part of southern Illinois where you can't find another certified library media specialist even if you hunt for one. Despite a state mandate, Ruhmann is the only certified school librarian in her district of Sparta, a rural town with five schools and about 1,800 students. She's convinced that an aide will replace her once she retires from the Sparta Lincoln Middle School. After all, that's what happened to two of her colleagues almost a decade ago. Now two aides without teaching degrees staff the town's primary and high schools. Ruhmann, who's been a school librarian for 16 years, received her library certification from Southern Illinois University, but the program's no longer being offered. The only on-campus option is to drive 70 miles to Washington University in St. Louis or four hours to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Illinois's librarian shortage is classified as 'severe' in

Curtis spearheaded a drive in Baltimore that led county officials this year to fund $10.5 million for the purchase of new books. Today, Curtis tells Education World writer Mary Daniels Brown how she accomplished that. Included: Comments from librarians and other experts on the state of our schools' libraries and advice from Della Curtis on mounting your own successful campaign for funding for new library books. In May 2000 the Baltimore (Maryland) County Council approved a $10.5 million budget for the purchase of new books for libraries in all of the county's middle and high schools. "Replacing the collections will bring us up to 80 percent of state standards," Della Curtis, coordinator of the county schools' office of library information services, told Education World. Baltimore County is the 24th largest school district in the country. The Baltimore County secondary schools need this money for new library materials. According to
