State Educational Statistics
Dear Friends, The Massachusetts Education Reform Act of 1993 calls for dramatic changes in public education over a 7-year period. Among the major improvements are greater and more equitable funding to schools, accountability for student learning, and statewide standards for students, educators, schools and districts. While there is still much to be done to achieve our goals, substantial progress has been made in schools throughout the Commonwealth. Many people have asked for an update on Education Reform at its midpoint, including the Governor and legislative leaders, members of the State Board of Education and local school committees, the Massachusetts Education Reform Review Commission, advisory councils, and parents. I hope this progress report is helpful in answering your questions.

APPENDIX B: Education Flexibility Demonstration Program (Ed-Flex)
Background
Present in the Goals 2000: Educate America Act, the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) , and the The Educational Flexibility Demonstration Program (Ed-Flex) is similar to the other waiver authorities administered by the Department with one notable and significant exception; the State rather than the Department is the entity provided with the authority to decide whether a requested waiver meets the intents and purposes of the legislation and holds reasonable promise for increasing student achievement and meeting related academic goals. Through Section 311(e) of the Goals 2000: Educate America Act, the Secretary has delegated to 12 States (the maximum number allowed by statute) the authority to waive for their school districts and schools statutory and regulatory requirements of certain programs of ESEA and the Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Applied Technology Education Act and general administrative regulations applicable to these programs. To be eligible to receive Ed-Flex authority, a State educational agency must have an approved Goals 2000 comprehensive improvement plan and possess the authority to waive State education requirements. The twelve States that have been delegated Ed-Flex authority are Colorado, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon, Texas, and Vermont.

On December 18, 2003, members of the Iowa House and Senate Caucus staff, the Iowa Department of Education, the Iowa State Board of Education, the Iowa Board of Examiners, and other state education policy leaders convened in Des Moines to discuss the emerging policy issue of alternative routes to preparation and licensure of teachers. Dr. Ginger Reynolds of Learning Point Associates began the meeting with a brief welcome and overview of the transition of the North Central Regional Educational Laboratory (NCREL) to Learning Point Associates. Learning Point Associates was founded as the North Central Regional Educational Laboratory in 1984. NCREL continues its research and development work as a wholly owned subsidiary of Learning Point Associates. Dr. Reynolds followed the welcome by discussing the agenda and presenting an overview of the day's events.

Peer Review Status: Internally Peer Reviewed A. About This Course
The Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act of 1988 (CLIA '88) has drastically altered the management and use of the physician's office laboratory. Physicians who had managed a clinical laboratory as part of their practice for one year before the implementation of the law are effectively "grandfathered in" meeting the qualifications to be a director of a moderately complex laboratory. Those physicians who completed resident training after September 1, 1993 or have no previous experience as laboratory directors need 20 hours of continuing medical education credit in clinical laboratory practice in order to qualify as a laboratory director of a moderately complex laboratory. This course utilizes linked information to present pertinent information about a topic. Many of the links are to the Survey Procedures and Interpretive Guidelines for Laboratories and Laboratory Services. This document contains the regulations as published in the Federal Register as well as guidelines for inspectors to determine if the laboratory is in compliance with the regulations. We must state that this is not an official version of the manual to satisfy the people at HCFA. It is imperative that you read all the links of a particular module since some of the questions are only covered in the links.

EC PHARMACY UPDATE
The Iowa Pharmacy Association (IPA) adopted a policy in 2001 (DOC-20K) that supports patient access to emergency contraception products and the voluntary involvement of pharmacists in emergency contraception programs. The Iowa Board of Pharmacy and the Iowa Board of Medical Examiners are working to establish a framework to facilitate collaborative initiatives under the Iowa Pharmacy Act. Currently, pharmacists work with physicians to develop protocols to administer immunizations. IPA recently hosted a presentation on the Pharmacists Role in Emergency Contraception. Representatives from the Iowa Family Planning Association and Planned Parenthood were invited to attend. The Iowa Family Health Bureau is providing training on EC targeted to Title X providers, but this training can include other health care professionals. The Family Planning Council and Planned Parenthood of Greater Iowa have received some support to develop materials and ads to increase awareness about EC. Back to top

Washington, DC, February 17, 2004 The Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) announces the members of its newly created Task Force on Special Education. This task force has been assembled in an effort to better understand the implications of federal regulations and other legislation aimed at helping students with disabilities learn to their potential, namely the Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA) and No Child Left Behind (NCLB). “Educators in every state in our nation want to improve the learning outcomes for student with disabilities,” said Terry Bergeson, Washington State’s Superintendent of Public Instruction and chair of the CCSSO Task Force. “We must take advantage of this opportunity to move away from our heavy emphasis on compliance to a stronger focus on higher learning and achievement levels for all students with special needs.”

Current law and the State Board of Education regulations require the administration of criterion-referenced tests (CRTs), and norm-referenced tests (NRTs). ALL students are expected to participate in state assessments. The state-mandated criterion-referenced testing includes the Benchmark Exams at grades 3-8, End-of-Course Exams in Algebra I and Geometry, and a Grade 11 Literacy Exam. The CRTs are aligned to the state math and English language arts frameworks and were developed by Arkansas teachers and the Arkansas Department of Education. Norm-referenced testing, presently the Iowa Test of Basic Skills, is administered in grades K-9 in reading comprehension and math problem solving. The Iowa Early Learning Inventory is administered to all kindergarten students at the beginning of the school year. The Arkansas Alternate Portfolio Assessment System is designed to evaluate the performance of students with disabilities and students with limited English Proficiency (LEP) in grades 3–8 and 11 for whom the criterion-referenced examinations are not appropriate. All 9 th grade students with disabilities who are not taking Algebra I or Geometry must be assessed with an alternate portfolio. All eligible LEP students taking Algebra I or Geometry may be assessed with an alternate portfolio.

Click on curriculum guide in the 'Related Documents' folder to access a helpful resource. As the nation awaits the decision of the Massachusetts Supreme Court on the right of same-sex couples to civil marriage, educators are the presented with an opportunity to teach students about one of the most significant civil and human rights issues of our time. Marriage is a critical issue because it touches all at once on questions of love and sex, religion and politics, access to legal and economic benefits, and the role of government in our personal lives. Along with parents and care takers, schools must take a leading role in providing accurate information about same-sex relationships and creating safe spaces in which students can make sense of the various points of view they hear from family, peers, community leaders, and mass media. Toward this end, At Issue: Marriage, Exploring the Debate Over Marriage Rights for Same-Sex Couples offers educators six lesson plans for high school aged students that challenges them to explore the range of complex issues reflected in the marriage debate.

Community Outreach and Education Program (COEP)
Overview
The COEC provides community members current, appropriate, science and technology-based information specifically designed to address environmental health issues in rural Midwestern communities, and other vulnerable populations. The COEC also serves as a local, state, national and international resource and assists community organizations and populations with special needs.
Rural Americans are more often at increased risk from a number of agricultural and rural environmental hazards and exposures, have less access to health care providers, and generally have more adverse health outcomes than Americans living in urban areas. Farmers, farm family members, children, the elderly, and the poor are at particular risk. The COEC channels the diverse environmental health capabilities of the EHSRC toward meeting the educational needs of the broader community, promoting environmental health, and serving America's heartland as a technical resource to assist in making environmental health policy.
The specific aims of the COEC are to:
a. coordinate educational programming, community-based learning and outreach services within the EHSRC;
