Extractions: Ms. Morgan is also an Ashbrook scholar at Ashland University. Introduction Schools around the United States are now faced with education a growing number of children who lack basic English skills. According to the National Clearinghouse for Bilingual Education , there are 2,437,723 Limited English Proficiency students in the U.S.1 Only a few years ago, many schools had never dealt with a language minority child. Today, an increasing number do. The challenge of providing a quality education to all students is doubled when schools must also teach a child an entire new language as well as academic courses. Over the last 30 years, elected officials, education agencies, and the courts have established guidelines for the education of these students. Federal requirements allow states a wide deal of latitude in selecting the most effective programs for their limited-English-proficient (LEP) students. Many states have enacted their own laws governing the management and style of programs for LEPs. These laws have been developed in cooperation with, or under coercion from, federal agencies and/or activist organizations. The result has been a patchwork of laws and regulations that can vary greatly from state to state.

Extractions: Under the new Wisconsin State Teacher Education regulations, all teacher education students must develop and maintain a portfolio of evidence that the UW-Madison School of Education teaching standards have been met. At UW-Madison, this "teaching portfolio" will be electronic for students in nearly all programs. While development and maintenance of the web-based portfolio will be each student's responsibility, they will receive extensive support and training from School of Education faculty and staff. Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction rules define a "portfolio" as "a collection of documentary evidence to demonstrate proficiency that may include but is not limited to whole group and individual pupil performance as measured by state, local, formal and informal assessments; lesson plans; supervisor and mentor comments of classroom performance; journals documenting samples of pupil errors and analysis of teacher interpretations of errors; ongoing documentation of classroom management techniques and results; and curriculum adaptations for children with disabilities or other exceptionalities with related outcome measures." Once admitted to a UW-Madison teacher education program, students will be oriented to the standards and to specific performance indicators or benchmarks of performance for their program area. Students will be given multiple opportunities to meet the standards and performance indicators through the required courses in their professional program.

Wisconsin V. Yoder While Amish accept compulsory elementary education generally, for education of its citizens, to impose reasonable regulations for the control and http://www.law.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/conlaw/yoder.html
Extractions: MR. CHIEF JUSTICE BURGER delivered the opinion of the Court. On petition of the State of Wisconsin, we granted the writ of certiorari in this case to review a decision of the Wisconsin Supreme Court holding that respondents' convictions of violating the State's compulsory school-attendance law were invalid under the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution made applicable to the States by the Fourteenth Amendment. For the reasons hereafter stated we affirm the judgment of the Supreme Court of Wisconsin. Respondents Jonas Yoder and Wallace Miller are members of the Old Order Amish religion, and respondent Adin Yutzy is a member of the Conservative Amish Mennonite Church. They and their families are residents of Green County, Wisconsin. Wisconsin's compulsory school-attendance law required them to cause their children to attend public or private school until reaching age 16 but the respondents declined to send their children, ages 14 and 15, to public school after they completed the eighth grade. The children were not enrolled in any private school, or within any recognized exception to the compulsory-attendance law, and they are conceded to be subject to the Wisconsin statute. On complaint of the school district administrator for the public schools, respondents were charged, tried, and convicted of violating the compulsory-attendance law in Green County Court and were fined the sum of $ 5 each. Respondents defended on the ground that the application of the compulsory-attendance law violated their rights under the First and Fourteenth Amendments. The trial testimony showed that respondents believed, in accordance with the tenets of Old Order Amish communities generally, that their children's attendance at high school, public or private, was contrary to the Amish religion and way of life. They believed that by sending their children to high school, they would not only expose themselves to the danger of the censure of the church community, but, as found by the county court, also endanger their own salvation and that of their children. The State stipulated that respondents' religious beliefs were sincere.

Extractions: Heritage Lecture #390 A little revolution took place in the spring of 1990. A lady named Polly Williams, who is diminutive in physical stature but a towering giant in courage, led a few low-income youngsters to the promised land of a good educational opportunity. But the old adage that no good deed goes unpunished proved true once again. The Milwaukee parental choice program is very modest in scope: it gives only a few hundred low-income youngsters the opportunity to use half of their education money $2,500 at non-sectarian, private schools. But even though it is modest in scope, you would think an atomic bomb had been set off in Milwaukee when you gauge the amazing reaction and opposition to this program by the public school establishment. Indeed, you would think that this little program threatened the very pathetic existence of the education establishment maybe because it did. The battle over choice is not really about appropriate policy or esoteric legal theories, it is about power. What the Milwaukee parental choice program did that poses such a dramatic threat to the status quo and the vested interest, is that for the first time in the history of public education it transferred power over education from the bureaucrats to the parents. And if we learned anything in this battle at all, it is that the education establishment will not sit idly by in the face of any challenge to its monopoly stranglehold over public education.
Extractions: Aquatic invasive species are increasingly recognized as a serious problem in Wisconsin. Exotic species control is one of the major environmental issues of the day, says Ron Martin, DNRs aquatic invasive species coordinator, in terms of habitat destruction and the negative impacts on native species. Since Wisconsins native species havent grown up with these new species, they often are not adapted to compete with them or fight back. The magnitude of this problem has been rapidly expanding. Zebra mussels ( Dreissena polymorpha ) have the ability to inhabit every hard surface in their path and Eurasian watermilfoil ( Myriophyllum spicatum ) forms mats so dense that people can no longer boat, fish or swim. Recent and potential introductions of invasive species further threaten Wisconsin waters. There is a growing watch list of species that, while not yet here, are within striking distance of our borders (
