21. SEER Brochure Representatives of the participating state education agencies serve as SEER s Iowa Department of education ° ° kentucky Environmental education Council http://www.seer.org/pages/Brochure.html

Introduction SEER is a cooperative program that helps state education agencies in their efforts to strengthen the role of environment-based educational approaches in K-12 curricula and systemic reform efforts. SEER's staff coordinates professional development activities and research programs, disseminates educational resource materials and provides technical assistance to the states. SEER was established in 1995 with funding from The Pew Charitable Trusts, a national philanthropy with major interests in both environmental and school reform issues. The Council of Chief State School Officers administers the grant. Representatives of the participating state education agencies serve as SEER's professional advisory board. Program History A 1994 study of federal and state education agencies, local school districts, universities and environmental organizations revealed a broad-scale need for better information about strategies that are working to integrate environmental content, pedagogy and principles into formal K-12 educational systems. This study found that EE had achieved only minor integration in systemic education reform efforts. (Click here to see a copy of the report) As part of the study, environmental education coordinators from nine state education agencies convened to identify what specific steps needed to be taken to build a better knowledge base for the field. Among their recommendations was the establishment of a national entity that could help facilitate information sharing among the EE coordinators in the various state agencies and identify successful implementation strategies that might be replicated.

24. Overview State education and higher education agencies currently compete with each other The kentucky education Reform Act of 1990 requires the Council on Higher http://www.ncrel.org/sdrs/pbriefs/94/94-1ovr1.htm

NCREL's Policy Briefs Building Collaborative Education Systems: New Roles for State Education and Higher Education Agencies Special Policy Report Report 1, 1994 Previous section Next section Contents Pathways home page Overview Education Reform: What Are the Implications for School-College Collaboration? Collaboration is never easy. But in times of tight financial constraints collaboration is especially difficult. State education and higher education agencies currently compete with each other for scarce public resources. This competition is part of what keeps them apart. The history of their development also separates state education from higher education. Each bears the baggage of its own traditional missions and roles. Many education reformers may argue that time and the present needs of society have blurred the distinctions between the services that the two sectors provide. However, many within the education community identify a clear dichotomy of duty: a compulsory and universal public K-12 education for America's children up to a certain age and a voluntary and to some degree selective postsecondary education system for those seeking advanced educational skills and/or entry into professional career ranks. Data on students progressing through the public schools and the public postsecondary institutions are collected separately. The data are often incompatible, which inhibits collaborative policy planning. The way in which public K-12 education and public postsecondary education are financed also divide the sectors. Public schools are wholly financed through tax dollars, while higher education receives funding from multiple sources: state revenues, federal funds for research and student financial aid, private sector research, students, and private donors. Competition and cost both influence the selection process in postsecondary institutions.

25. Kentucky's Family And Youth Services Centers Break New Ground We got other agencies involved right away and tried to stabilize the home situation, For more information on the kentucky education Reform Act, see http://www.ncrel.org/sdrs/cityschl/city1_1e.htm

Kentucky's Family and Youth Services Centers Break New Ground When teachers at Fairdale High School in Kentucky became concerned about a 14-year-old girl (whom we'll call Wanda), they turned to the school's new Youth Services Center. The center is one of 37 new school-based social service centers in the Louisville area, and one of 373 Family Resource and Youth Service Centers statewide created by the comprehensive 1990 Kentucky Education Reform Act. Wanda is a bright girl with a young child. She lives with her mother, more than 10 miles from school. At this crisis point, Wanda's home was filled with tension. She regularly left the house with her child late at night against her mother's wishes. Then she came home too tired to catch the school bus the next day for the long ride to Fairdale. Concerned about Wanda's severe attendance problemseven though Fairdale has a program specially designed for young parents, male and femalethe school wanted to intervene before they lost her. Concerned Intervention Dan Clemons, Fairdale's Youth Services Center coordinator, convinced Wanda and her mother to come in for some meetings. He arranged ongoing psychotherapy for the distressed young woman. During the course of their conversations, the therapist discovered that Wanda was a victim of sexual abuse from within the family.
