Alternative Schools: Diverted but not Defeated Paper submitted to Qualification Committee At UC Davis California July 2000 By Kathy Emery Table of Contents Introduction The Development of a Centralized Bureaucracy. Opposition to Standardization Co-optation of the Opposition Co-optation of Manual Training Resistance to Co-optation The Progressive Education Association The Post-Progressive Period Persistent Resistance The Free School Movement Since the Sixties Continuation Schools Vouchers and Charters Conclusion Appendix A: The Politics of Education by Carl Rogers . Appendix B: New Standards TM Performance Standards References Every new idea, every conception of things differing from that authorized by current belief, must have its origin in an individual. New ideas are doubtless always sprouting, but a society governed by custom does not encourage their development. On the contrary, it tends to suppress them, just because they are deviations from what is current. The [person] who looks at things differently from others is in such a community a suspect character; for [him or her] to persist is generally fatal. Even when social censorship of beliefs is not so strict, social conditions may fail to provide the appliances which are requisite if new ideas are to be adequately elaborated; or they may fail to provide any material support and reward to those who entertain them.

Alternate education - Offering a second chance Bridges caters to students who've run out of chances Opportunity program offers structure, stability Students in recovery learn new ways to fit in ... Working independently requires self-motivation Alternative education - Offering a second chance Stories by Sherry Posnick-Goodwin Photos by Scott Buschman No matter how they ended up in the alternative setting, the Bridges program offers Glendora area students a way to transition back to the regular classroom. Some students thrive in traditional schools, easily achieving academic success and social glory. Other students - like round pegs in square holes - find that school is not a good fit. Sometimes they fall so far behind in school credits that graduation seems impossible. Or they fall in with the wrong crowd and stop caring about school. Still others find they need to focus on surviving rather than learning. When it comes to education, one size doesn't fit all. For many students, alternative education provides an answer - or at least a second chance. In alternative settings, say teachers, students may go from struggling to thriving because they receive individual attention, the opportunity to work independently, emotional support, a small school setting with a family atmosphere, and behavior modification to help overcome social and behavioral problems. Some students attend alternative schools because they want to; others attend because they've had trouble learning in a traditional school setting. No matter how students end up in alternative education, many find they can succeed there - perhaps for the first time in their lives.
