General Questions About GreatSchools About School Profiles What kinds of schools are included on GreatSchools.net? GreatSchools.net includes profiles of all public elementary, middle and high schools in the United States, with more extensive information about schools in GreatSchools.net in-depth states. Charter schools, magnet schools, year-round schools, and some continuation and alternative schools are all included. Certain types of public school programs, such as regional occupational schools, adult schools or independent study schools may not be included because not enough information is available to create complete GreatSchools profiles. In addition, schools that have been in operation for less than two years may not be included, as sufficient data may not yet be available to create complete GreatSchools profiles.

Curriculum-Based Measurement Northeast Kansas Education Service Center Lecompton, Kansas Director: Jim Wheeler, PhD. ....Measuring Learning Outcomes and Making Data-Based Decisions Using Curriculum-Based Measurement is a three-year model being developed by the Northeast Kansas Education Service Center to change pre-referral, referral, identification, classification, placement, and program delivery practices in special and general education programs in Kansas. ....Addressing school reform issues and Quality Performance Accreditation, the project grounds district restructuring efforts to the basic unit of school instruction: the general education classroom. The project aligns general and special education teachers to work cooperatively and collaboratively within the general education classroom. Together, teachers can access and plan appropriate classroom support services, set achievement standards and evaluate student progress using continous performance measures of the child's progress in the curriculum taught. ....Curriculum-Based Measurement is developing a regional, normative base for selecting students in need of special services. Development of regional curriculum-based achievement standards provides a curriculum-centered rationale for the level and duration of instructionally-appropriate special education support services. Student eligibility for special education services is determined through frequent classroom assessments of the student's proficiency in the school's curricula.

CHECK Home Getting started Is Homeschooling Legal in Kansas? (Please note: the following discussion does not constitute the giving of legal advice and is not intended to be a substitute for competent legal counsel.) Overview Homeschooling is perfectly legal in the state of Kansas. Unfortunately, Kansas’s statutes do not mention homeschooling specifically, and thus some confusion exists on this issue, especially among public school officials and occasionally among local legal authorities. However, among the state's legal authorities, which includes the Kansas Attorney General, the Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services (SRS), the legal staff of the Kansas State Board of Education, and numerous district courts, the legality of homeschooling in Kansas is fairly well settled. Kansas Statutes The 1996 Kansas Legislature amended K.S.A. 72-1111, the statute pertaining to compulsory school attendance in Kansas, to read as follows: Additionally, K.S.A. 72-53,101 imposes a one-time registration requirement at the establishment of a private school in Kansas: "72-53,101.Each official custodian of a private elementary or secondary school shall register the name and address of the private elementary or secondary school with the state board of education."

Kansas National Education Association Search the KNEA Web site Reading Circle Catalog Teacher License Information National Board Certification KPERS Update ... Contact KNEA September State Board News Health Standards In Other Action Health Standards At the September meeting, State Board members reviewed and debated portions of the proposed Health Standards. The board members debated whether or not students should "opt in" or have signed parent permission forms to attend the sex education portion of the health curriculum. Currently in most schools, students attend the classes unless parents "opt them out." The districts are not bound by the State Boards' recommendations concerning the Health Standards. The standards are only recommendations to the school districts because the state does not test students on health standards as part of district accreditation. There were two motions and votes on the "opt in" or "opt out" options. The board split 5-5 on both votes. Kathy Martin from Clay Center voted with the moderates on the board to continue the current "opt out" system. Ms Martin said that the "opt in" procedure would be too cumbersome on districts that are already stretched for time to complete required paperwork.

The Kansas Meadowlark July 2, 2005 Kansas Supreme Court to Close Kansas Schools? A press conference was scheduled by the Kansas Supreme Court at 2 PM on Saturday near the fountains on the north side of the Kansas Judicial Center. The splash of water from the fountains made hearing the court's statement and questions and answers from the press quite difficult. This battle is all over what a "suitable education" means, and has become a constitution battle between the Kansas legislature and the Kansas Supreme Court. Ron Keefover , who is the education and information officer for the Office of Judicial Administration, passed out a two-page order from the Kansas Supreme Court , which was signed by Chief Justice Kay McFarland: The order announced a hearing at 9 AM, July 8 for the parties of the Ryan Montory, et al, case to show cause why the court should not issue an injunction. The court's order said "Specifically, counsel should demonstrate why this Court should not enter an ORDER enjoining the expenditure and distribution of funds for the operation of Kansas schools."

40. Kansas Fine Arts Requirements Requirements for fine arts programs in kansas schools include several other With students who are better informed about the arts, general educators may http://205.214.78.128/~kansasar/FAreq02.htm

History is Made! New Kansas Requirements for Fine Arts Thanks to the efforts of hundreds of arts advocates in our state, the Kansas State Department of Education recently approved new regulations for high school graduation that included one unit of fine arts. Requirements for fine arts programs in Kansas schools include several other stipulations: A component of the new QPA/ESEA regulations specifies that districts must “have in place quality assurance measures” at both the elementary and secondary levels programs to support learning and growth. Included in these are the computer literacy, counseling services, fine arts, language arts, library services, mathematics, physical education, science, services for students with special needs, and history and government. (SBR 91-31-17) One-hundred percent of those teaching core subjects must be fully certified/licensed in the subject they teach, including music, art and drama/speech. Local boards of education will decide which courses may be included as a fine art (as they do mathematics, science, etc.). The regulatory language that the board agreed upon states, “One unit of fine arts, which may include art, music, dance, theatre, debate and other similar studies selected by a local board of education.” (We’re working to have the word “debate” exchanged for “forensics.”) The fine arts graduation requirement will be in effect for freshman entering high school in 2005-2006, with an option to begin as early as 2003/04
