You also draw attention to the role that the Department of State should play in expediting SEVIS's implementation by assisting in the collection of the SEVIS fee. We are committed to doing all we can to bring the ultimate system into operation and we value your candid review of the obstacles that must be overcome in order to bring SEVIS into operation. We want to assist you and other federal entities with efforts to improve the tracking of foreign students in the United States. In that spirit of collaboration, there is one matter which, for the record, should be corrected in your otherwise insightful and important review. On page 148 of the Report, you state that CIPRIS, and later SEVIS, encountered significant opposition from several associations representing schools, particularly... the American Council on Education.... Schools objected to foreign students being subjected to monitoring....

Fees TABS will host the 2003 Summer Admission Academy and the Residential Life Workshop from July 21-25 at Episcopal High School in Alexandria, Virginia, located just 10 minutes from Washington D.C. The concurrent, four-day programs will focus on boarding school issues emphasizing the team approach to achieving and maintaining a healthy enrollment and living environment for students, teachers, and administrators. The TABS faculty members, like teachers on a boarding school campus, have many talents. All of them have experience in the classroom, on the playing fields, in the dormitories, and in administrative positions. From these veterans, participants in both workshops will learn how to juggle their myriad responsibilities. While the two workshops have specialized faculties and meet separately, they will come together for selected workgroups, meals, and for the session on boarding schools and the law. Workshop Site Episcopal High School, site of the TABS Admission Academy and Residential Life Workshop, provides excellent facilities along with proximity to the nation's capital. Workshop sessions will be held in air-conditioned rooms. Participants will enjoy the school's athletic facilities which include a swimming pool, weight room and fitness center, tennis courts, gymnasium, and playing fields. On Thursday, July 24, everyone will enjoy a night off campus when they can hop on the Metro (subway) for the quick ride into historic and exciting Washington, D.C. Participants will be housed in the school's air-conditioned dormitories and will be assigned to single rooms on a first-come, first-served basis.

Before you put ax to ice, a little instruction is in order Every winter, it seems, come reports about deaths on Mt. Washington climbers who either overestimated their own ability or underestimated the hazards of their endeavor. Since the late 1800s, 125 people have died trying to scale New England's highest peak. The lesson: Climbing, especially in winter, is a dangerous undertaking. Those who want to enjoy the thrilland live to tell about itshould plan to invest in a training course or two. New Hampshire's White Mountains are an ideal place to learn. Several schools in the area lead expeditions and provide ice-climbing and mountaineering courses for all levels of expertise. The Eastern Mountain Sports Climbing School in North Conway, N.H. offers group courses and private instruction, mixed routes, ascents of Mt. Washington (said to have its share of the harshest weather on Earth), overnights and even expeditions to the high peaks of Ecuador. The International Mountain Climbing School, also in North Conway, offers similar technical courses. It operates in conjunction with Stonehurst Manor, which provides overnight accommodations. Courses range from $130 one-day session to a $720 Presidential Range traverse. The schools provide all the necessary technical equipment, but students need to provide their own clothing and other gear, such as sleeping bags and packs. This gear may be expensive, but in an emergency, every bit of warmth and dryness is precious.

Letter from Rep. Waxman to Attorney General Janet Reno April 29, 1999 The Honorable Janet Reno Attorney General Department of Justice 10th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20530 The Honorable Carol M. Browner Administrator U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Washington, DC 20460 Dear Attorney General Reno and Administrator Browner: I am writing to you regarding an important issue currently being debated in Congress and to request your views on the attached legislative language. The issue of terrorist attacks on chemical facilities deserves a more comprehensive approach, one which examines all aspects of the issue, including chemical plant security equipment and personnel, the "hardness" of chemical operations against bombing attacks, and the value of establishing protective buffer zones between hazardous chemical operations and residential areas, schools, transportation routes, and other public centers. Only through such a comprehensive analysis can we identify the steps we need to take and their relative priority. Site security measures may likely emerge as more important in reducing terrorist risk than information security measures. Additionally, if past experience with right-to-know laws is any indication, public disclosure will likely encourage chemical plants to adopt inherently safer practices which would reduce the hazard associated with these facilities to both terrorist attack and to accidents. It would be very helpful to receive your views on the attached legislative language . This language would seek to reduce the risk of terrorist attack on chemical facilities by directing the Department of Justice to convene a task force to perform the comprehensive analysis discussed above, and to recommend the necessary protective measures. The legislation would then direct the EPA to implement those measures in consultation with the Department of Justice.

75. Archived: WHAT DO STUDENT GRADES MEAN? DIFFERENCES ACROSS SCHOOLS difference is there in the subject matter covered by the college and general courses ParentalSatisfaction With schools and the Need for Standards washington, DC http://www.ed.gov/pubs/OR/ResearchRpts/grades.html

A r c h i v e d I n f o r m a t i o n What Do Student Grades Mean? Differences Across Schools January 1994 Recent calls for a voluntary system of assessments tied to national standards have lead to both supporters and detractors of such a system. Supporters see it as a way of improving education, while some detractors see it as a federal intrusion on education, despite the fact that such a system would be developed by state and local education systems and would be voluntary. Others believe that such a system could be unfair to students who live in high poverty areas, because they might be less well prepared for the assessments. We suggest that the current education system is unfair to such students, because they and their parents are not provided with information they need to judge the quality of their education. A prior Research Report on parental satisfaction with schools and the need for standards (November 1992) showed that, despite clear indications and widespread concern about low achievement, most parents express satisfaction with their children's achievement and schools. Part of the reason for their satisfaction is that parents have to rely primarily on grades to determine how much their children are learningand according to the grades, their children are doing well. In this report, we examine more closely what student grades tell us about achievement, using data collected about public school students in the National Education Longitudinal Study of 1988 (NELS:88). NELS:88, which was conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics, includes a wide variety of information on a sample of eighth grade students across the nation. For these analyses, we examined public school students' reports of their grades in English and math and their NELS:88 test scores in these subjects by the poverty level of their schools. The NELS:88 tests, while shortthe reading test consisted of 5 short passages followed by 21 comprehension and interpretation questions, and the math test consisted of 40 itemsprovide comparable information for students across schools.

Remarks of Secretary Paige, CCSSO General Session, San Diego, CA FOR RELEASE: July 28, 2002 Every day I am reminded what an honor it is to be Secretary of Education and to serve this President. In the crisis-filled months since last September 11th, he has been an unyielding force for freedom. Yet even standing toe to toe with terrorism, President Bush has never once lost his laser-beam focus on what matters most back here at home: educating our children. A few days ago, I spoke at Georgetown University at a Summit on Afghanistan. The Afghan Ministers came Washington to discuss rebuilding their country. And what was so striking in the discussions is how different their education challenge is from ours. We don't have to start from scratch. We have a good education foundation. And the reforms of No Child Left Behind build on that foundation to create world-class schools that the President envisions.
