Extractions: by granting $1.7 million for capacity building, arts in education, and new works in state Also grants $356 thousand for education projects, bringing 2000 total for schools to $1.02 million The Rhode Island Foundation Board of Directors fulfilled and far exceeded a promise it made in January to donate significant support to the arts in 2000. With the approval last week of 31 new grants to stabilize arts organizations, increase arts programs in education, and to support new artistic works being created and presented in Rhode Island, the Foundation has committed $1,705,746 to its newest grantmaking category, instead of the $1.2 million it predicted earlier this year. At the same meeting, the Foundation approved nine grants for education projects totaling $355,549, bringing total support for that issue area this year to $1,024,149. We hope our support is sending two very important messages, stated Ronald V. Gallo, Foundation president and CEO. One, the arts represent a major component of our efforts to sustain and improve Rhode Island. Two, by exceeding the state grant dollars available from the Rhode Island State Council on the Arts, we are challenging Rhode Island government to increase its own commitment to this vital area. Foundation Senior Vice President for Program Ronald D. Thorpe said arts organizations were encouraged to apply within four strategies: arts in education, community and public art, capacity building for arts organizations, and support for new works. Thorpe continued, In Arts and Education we set out to bring together community arts organizations, schools, and artists to help establish the arts as a central part of schooling and life for all children.

The Rhode Island Center For School Leadership Spearheaded by the rhode island Association of School Principals, The roleof higher education in professional development for school leaders, http://www.ricsl.org/aboutus.htm
Extractions: About the RICSL: Back to Top The Rhode Island Center for School Leadership (RICSL) is a dream and a vision that was made into goals, and has now been a thriving reality for three years. Spearheaded by the Rhode Island Association of School Principals, thirteen leadership organizations in the state have joined together to provide a variety of opportunities for professional growth: from traditional classes to job embedded, on-site work; from workshops to seminars and lectures; and from reading seminars to on-site, in-school assistance through our Leadership Corps. Because school leaders have unique and overlapping professional development needs, and these needs are usually met in fragmented ways by individual professional organizations and higher education, the RICSL brings school leaders together for collaborative professional development based on Rhode Island's Quality Standards for Professional Development and the Interstate School Leadership Licensure Consortium (ISLLC) standards for leadership in schools at all levels.
