At the business meeting on September 12, 2005 at the Center for Educational Opportunity, the following actions and discussions took place. General Public Comments Heather Del Gallo, representing the Harford Technical High School Student Government Association, presented information to the Board about a project being conducted at the school under the supervision of SGA sponsor Ed Fielder to provide needed supplies to students in areas ravaged by Hurricane Katrina. Denise Quinn, who has children attending Church Creek Elementary School, urged the Board not to redistrict any students in the Church Creek attendance area from the secondary schools in Aberdeen to Edgewood. She said it was her "responsibility as a parent" to make sure students in the area attended the schools where they had the best chance at success. John Jones, president of the Harford County Education Association, said he was making his first presentation to the Board in his official capacity as president of the teacher's association, and said that his organization and the Board shared a "common goal and vision," noting the fully funded school budget as a collaborative effort. He said the new budget allows Harford, which he said is the seventh most wealthy county in the state, to advance to the fourteenth position (out of 24) in teachers' salaries. "We're not where we should be and the second year (of the proposed two-year, seven-percent-per-year) salary increase is crucial," he said. He said capital projects are "stacked like cordwood" awaiting completion and that the reality of the coming Base Realignment and Closing (BRAC) that will bring thousands of high-paying, high-tech jobs to Harford will be the expectation for a first class school system.

News STUDENTS ON SCHOOL BOARDS Students on School Boards of Education Resource Guide Last Updated March 200 INTRODUCTION- STUDENT participation on boards of education is a small part of a much larger movement towards meaningful student involvement throughout education. Since the 1960s the effort to promote student representation has waxed and waned, according to the will of school officials and the sincere interest of students involved. Today that tide is turning, and students across the US are calling for deepened engagement in the decision-making that affects them on all levels - in the classroom, in the auditorium, and in the boardroom. This guide can also serve students, educators, administrators, and concerned community members around the nation as they lobby for student participation on school boards of education. This is a multi-topic resource guide promoting Student Voice, Participation, Engagement, Involvement, and Representation on Local, District, Regional, and State Boards of Education. Includes research, examples, and other resources for students, educators, administrators, and concerned community members who support validating student voice in school decision-making by including students on local and state school boards of education.
