The reception, held in the House of Representatives Lounge, was hosted by Speaker of the House John B. Harwood, House Majority Leader Gerard M. Martineau and Rep. Stephen J. Anderson (D-Dist. 42) of Coventry. Guests included teachers, education officials from the state, Rhode Island College and the University of Rhode Island, representatives of the Rhode Island Foundation and other academic and professional organizations. Said Speaker Harwood, in welcoming the teachers and guests to the reception: "Through this pursuit of excellence in your honorable and important profession, you will bring to your students not only your desire for their individual personal advancement, but a dedication to make their academic journey the richest and most fulfilling it can be. In commending the teachers involved in the National Board Standards certification process, Speaker Harwood urged all teachers in Rhode Island to undertake the program, "to make themselves better teachers, to bring that higher quality to their classrooms, and to send a message to students and their parents that the person in front of the classroom is someone special who truly cares."

News from the General Assembly The Legislative Press and Information Bureau Distributed October 8, 1998 For more information, contact David R. Fallon, Director State House Room 20 Rep. Anderson clarifies state funding for national teacher certification STATE HOUSE Rep. Stephen J. Anderson (D-Dist. 42) of Coventry believes an education proposal offered this week by the governor might deserve some compliments, if it weren't a 50 percent step back from what's already been accomplished by the General Assembly. Gov. Lincoln Almond, during an address to the Rhode Island Public Expenditures Council on Wednesday, said he believes the state should make funds available to pay for half the $2,000 cost of national teacher certification. "I'm glad the governor is a supporter of national certification for our state's teachers," said Representative Anderson. "But the current state budget crafted by the General Assembly has already committed $45,000 to reimburse the entire $2,000 application fee for any teacher undertaking the year-long national certification process. It is anticipated that that $45,000 will be substantially bolstered, or fully matched, by a grant from the Rhode Island Foundation, said Representative Anderson, who has for years led the legislative effort to fund and promote teacher participation in the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards.
