Projects of the size of those of the last three summers (100 to 150 workers) are rendered ineffective quickly by police threats and detention of members. 2. Previous projects have gotten no national publicity on the crucial issue of voting rights and, hence, have little national support either from public opinion or from the federal government. A large number of students from the North making the necessary sacrifices to go South would make abundantly clear to the government and the public that this is not a situation which can be ignored any longer, and would project an image of cooperation between Northern and white people and Southern Negro people to the nation which will reduce fears of an impending race war. Why this summer?

It has about 200 boys and girls on its campus. Even the killing of a student last Monday didn't stop Vern Carson, of Castro Valley, Calif. He arrived Tuesday to drop off his granddaughter for a year's stay. Despite the slaying, Carson said he left her in good hands. "They were very upfront about what had happened," Carson said of the killing. "Education standards are so loose in the public schools in California. I'm hoping she gets good Christian training." Carson said he heard about the school from a friend who sent two daughters, one of whom was suicidal when she arrived. Carson said she now wants to stay and graduate. He said the $750-a-month fee includes food, board, and schooling. "The whole package seemed very good," he said.

It's free! Save it. For most of the last century, children who have been removed from their families have been placed in foster care. Today, there are about 600,000 such children, and the system is beset by problemsa shortage of competent staff, children who spend much of their youth bouncing around from one family to another, and poor outcomes (high rates of teen pregnancy, for instance). And the system is overburdened. Caseloads have doubled over the last 20 years (largely as a result of the crack epidemic), while the number of foster families has declined. Faced with these challenges, some reformers propose making greater use of boarding schools. Such institutions exist across the nationlike Boys Town in Nebraska, Philadelphia's Girard College, and the Piney Woods School in Mississippiand many have good track records in preparing disadvantaged children for college and future careers. But the social services people want no part of that, as Newt Gingrich discovered in 1994 when he spoke out on the subject. Society's sole objective should be to unite children with their families, they argue.

A Highway Patrol investigator said Futrelle was killed by three students who feared that Futrelle wouldn't go along with their plans to take over the academy and get on network television.

75. Boarding Schools – Military Schools For Troubled Teenagers

    Extractions: Contact us today to get help for struggling teens There are signs that the military ethos can accomplish things not easily achieved otherwise. Military curricula are even taking hold in some public schools. In Detroit, the Charles Rogers Academy, named for a black army general, offers much the same program as a military prep school. Students of each year have different ranks, discipline is tight, and standards are high. About half the seniors attend collegean extremely impressive rate for an inner-city school. By shifting their focus from training future soldiers to preparing civic leaders, military boarding schools have made a comeback although their ranks have thinned since WWII. Of course, military boarding schools can seem more like another planet to the average teen. At Massanutten, a military boarding school, reveille is at 6 o'clock every weekday morning. Cadets are required to attend formation 45 minutes later dressed in full uniform, complete with polished boots.

    Extractions: Contact us today to get help for struggling teens With the quality of most public schools dwindling as a result of increased enrollment and decreased funding, many parents seek alternative schools to educate their children. Effective alternatives include private schools whose focus is a military style of discipline and education. Military schools provide cadets with the traditional college prep curriculum found in public schools, but the quality of teaching often exceeds that found in public school. Since most military schools are also a boarding school, many times the teachers are fully dedicated to the students and can offer extra academic assistance. In addition to a quality education, cadets can expect to have organized daily study time to ensure they complete their assignments and keep from falling behind.

But the social services people want no part of that, as Newt Gingrich discovered in 1994 when he spoke out on the subject. Society's sole objective should be to unite children with their families, they argue. The problem with this position can be summarized in two words: Brianna Blackwood. Brianna was the two-year-old who was taken from a loving foster family and returned to her mentally retarded mother in the District of Columbia three years ago. Two weeks later, Brianna was dead. Her case is hardly unique. Many biological parents are unfit to look after their children either because of drug use, mental illness, family instability, or similar problems.

The resolution forbidding corporal punishment "by hand or paddle" in Erie schools passed without comment from the board. It was sponsored by Director Richard Hilinski in response to a "zero tolerance" for aggressive acts by Erie students, a policy he voted against last month. Hilinski wrote in the resolution, "If we believe that physical assault of any sort is unworthy of our students to each other and teachers, then the same should apply to educators in the application of discipline to students." During the citizens' comment portion of the meeting, Erma Lindsey of Holland Street said of the resolution, "If I spank my grandchildren, it's called child abuse. If I can't do it, I suggest you keep your hands off." But Diann Cutri, president of the Erie City Council of PTA, said, "I'm in your schools all the time and I'll tell you that kids don't have any kind of respect for teachers. They need more discipline."
