27. USCS - Charter Schools News Connection -- July 19, 2004
    Federal Support May Spur Growth in Charter schools in georgia It s not like the alternative schools don t have to report their TAKS scores, Marchman  
    http://www.uscharterschools.org/cs/n/view/cs_bmsg/3367
    
    Extractions: With federal accountability rules demanding improved student achievement, some observers in Georgia think more charter schools will be one way to meet those requirements. Charters have yet to gain much popularity in Georgia. Of the state's more than 2,000 public schools, only 36 are charter-run. State officials hope a new $3.3 million federal grant will jump-start growth. Jennifer Rippner, charter schools program manager for the state Department of Education, said she's detected more interest in charter schools from school systems. Federal grants, she said, can only spur that. "We really are going to start utilizing it to publicize charter schools as school improvement," Rippner said. In Georgia, a greater percentage of students from charter schools met standards on the Criterion-Referenced Competency Test. Charter school students score, on average, higher on the SAT than their traditional-school counterparts, and dropout rates are lower.

SB 291 also mandates referral of these students to juvenile court. Mark Taylor believes that lifelong learning is the key to a stronger Georgia. As State Senator, Taylor introduced legislation that made the HOPE scholarship possible for thousands of Georgians. The HOPE (Helping Outstanding Students Educationally) Scholarship offers an opportunity for all students in Georgia with a 3.0 average or better to receive assistance in degree, diploma, or certificate programs at any eligible public or private college. As Lt. Governor, Mark Taylor continues to stop attempts to cut HOPE Scholarship funding and works to keep Georgia's best students in Georgia. Pre-kindergarten Program
