Colorado Study ED372759 May 94 The Impact of School Library Media Centers on Academic Achievement. and secondary schools in colorado during the 198889 school year. http://dewey.chs.chico.k12.ca.us/colo.html
Extractions: ERIC Digest. Author: Lance, Keith Curry ERIC Clearinghouse on Information and Technology, Syracuse, NY. THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC INTRODUCTION Advocates of school library media programs have long been convinced of the relationship between quality library media programs and academic achievement. Most studies of this relationship were conducted between 1959 and 1979, were limited in scope, and usually used a small number of subjects in a limited geographical area. This study was designed both to update the existing research and to examine the relationship between library media programs and student achievement. METHODOLOGY Ideally, schools included in the sample for a study such as this would be selected on a random, stratified, or quota basis. None of these sampling designs was possible, because schools included in the sample had to have library media centers that responded to the 1989 survey of school library media centers in Colorado and had to use the Iowa Tests of Basic Skills (ITBS) or Tests of Achievement and Proficiency (TAP). These data were available for only 221 of 1,331 public elementary and secondary schools in Colorado during the 1988-89 school year. The study relied entirely upon available data about school library media centers and their school and community contexts to predict norm-referenced test scores.

According to Zweig White's "2005-2008 K-12 School Market K-12 School Market for Design and Construction Firms," K-12 enrollment in Colorado is expected to increase nearly 6 percent between 2005 and 2013, a trend that will continue to drive construction spending on schools.

Gore Range Natural Science School - Colorado historic Red Cliff School in the former mining town of Red Cliff, colorado, Currently, over 1000 k12 students participate annually in GRNSS 3-5 day http://www.gorerange.org/about/
Extractions: MISSION STATEMENT Life-long Vail resident Kim Langmaid founded GRNSS in 1998 with the goal of creating a community-based organization that provides a relevant approach to teaching science and educating students of all ages about the ecology of the natural world. Since its inception, GRNSS has become a community leader in a region-wide effort to grow healthy communities by educating a local citizenry to make informed decisions about the natural environment. GRNSS delivers year-round environmental education through a variety of programs: School Programs: We partner with public and private schools to annually provide over 1,000 kindergarten through 12th grade students with 3-to-5-day hands-on, natural science field learning. GRNSS works closely with teachers to ensure that field course curriculum align with state and district standards in language arts, math and science. GRNSS also assesses 5th and 7th grade programs with the goal of tracking student interest, literacy and satisfaction related to material presented. Summer Youth Science Camps: For youth entering grades 1-4, we offer weeklong day camps that explore the natural histories of animals, plants, rivers and rocks. For youth entering grades 5-9, we offer weeklong overnight camps that explore ecology, field research, outdoor leadership, low-impact backcountry travel, and wilderness living.
