70. Legislative Action - Past Years Florida and louisiana will see boosts in funding exceeding 9 percent. In Florida, the state board of education now has authority to intervene in the http://www.sreb.org/main/LegAction/legactions/96LegBriefing.asp

Search powered by The 1996 Legislative Briefing Summary In 1996 regular sessions, SREB state legislatures continued to show interest in providing elementary and secondary school boards more flexibility for making decisions affecting their students, but paired new freedoms with increased accountability. Most budget increases have been designated for specific purposes (such as salary increases, enrollment growth or technology purchases) rather than for providing general operating increases for schools and colleges. Last year's belt-tightening in education budgets eased a bit. K-12 and higher education budget increases were higher than 1996's in about two-thirds of the SREB states. Double-digit increases will be seen by Mississippi community colleges and by colleges and universities in Oklahoma . The larger K-12 increases are in Florida (8.2 percent) and Oklahoma (8.1 percent). The brighter budget picture includes lower college tuition increases, except in Florida and Georgia . In Florida , tuition did not rise in 1996, but 1997 students will pay 7 percent more. Last year

71. Louisiana's Prekindergarten Initiative louisiana Receives NASBE Early Childhood education Grant. During this same timeperiod, louisiana s State Board of education decided to send a state action http://www.nasbe.org/Educational_Issues/New_Information/SII/7_8.html

id=10872 NASBE State Improvement Initiatives, Vol. 7, No. 8 National Association of State Boards of Education Louisiana's Prekindergarten Initiative In 2001, Louisiana passed legislation that established a program of universal early childhood education for low income four-year-olds in any Louisiana public school system that wished to participate. As a result, the state successfully launched the initial phase of the LA 4 Prekindergarten Initiative in 11 parishes. This year the state expects to expand services to 19 parishes, enrolling 5,000 four-year-olds in public schools. The LA 4 legislation calls for participating districts to offer prekindergarten classes to every child in the school system's jurisdiction who will be eligible to enter public school kindergarten the following year. Prekindergarten classes are provided at no cost to a child who is eligible to receive free and reduced price meals. Local school systems have the option of charging tuition to families with an ability to pay and must also work cooperatively with any federally funded program, such as Head Start, to establish a comprehensive program. The public school program is supported with $30.3 million from the federal Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) welfare program. The money can be used for new programs; however, it cannot supplant any existing programs. Louisiana's success in implementing a comprehensive, coordinated early childhood education and service system within the one-year time frame specified in the legislation is impressive. The bill focuses on resource coordination for students and their families and on collaboration with other government-funded providers of early childhood education. Furthermore, the statute requires that the Board of Elementary and Secondary Education (State Board of Education), in conjunction with the education department, establish statewide standards to ensure that program content is developmentally appropriate. Other requirements address teacher licensure, transportation, teacher-pupil ratios, instruction and materials, and facilities.

73. The Progress Of Education In Louisiana: Education Becomes A Top Priority There is excitement, energy, and hope about education in louisiana, The Boardof Elementary and Secondary education (BESE) has eight elected members and http://www.sedl.org/pubs/pic01/priority.html

Educational leaders in Louisiana are taking an approach to reform that focuses on the entire educational system to ensure that change takes place in an integrated way, rather than progressing in a piecemeal fashion. They are looking to the national reform movement for guidance and support in improving the quality of education for all students in the state. Teaching in Louisiana is expected to improve as teachers are given more resources, responsibilities, and opportunities to learn new skills. Students should have improved educational experiences as problems throughout the system are addressed. Let's look at how the story of education in Louisiana unfolds. Economic Realities Lead to Support for Educational Reform Economic realities have helped mobilize the general public to support educational reform in Louisiana. The oil and gas industry plays a pivotal role in the state. Louisiana is the third largest U.S. producer of oil and natural gas and is a center of petroleum refining and petrochemical manufacturing. During the oil boom of the 1970s and early 1980s, oil and gas accounted for 30 to 41 percent of the state's revenue, adding $1.6 billion to state coffers in 1981-82. Times were good; there was little incentive for the state to diversify its industrial base. However, what was good for the state economy was not necessarily good for public education.

77. Louisiana Public Square State Superintendent of education Cecil Picard, Board of Elementary and Secondary The National Center for education Statistics ranked louisiana near the http://www.lpb.org/programs/LApublicsquare/topic003.html

Topic: August 18 EDUCATION (K-12) Background Biographies Cecil Picard , Board of Elementary and Secondary Education President Glenny Lee Buquet and BESE member Mary Washington Louisiana Public Square BACKGROUND Overview A number of groups outside Louisiana agree: The American Society of Civil Engineers rated the state as one of the ten worst states in terms of school buildings in need of repair. th The National Education Association ranked Louisiana 6 th worst in the nation for having the lowest salaries for public school teachers. (This is in spite of a 38% rise in average Louisiana teacher pay from 1996-97 to 2001-02.) SOCIAL ISSUES Stephanie Desselle Council for A Better Louisiana STUDENT AND SCHOOL ACCOUNTABILITY At the core of the accountability program is high-stakes testing, which consists of exams aligned with content standards created for each subject. Such testing, while providing needed data for gauging performance, puts heightened stress on both the students and the teachers. Barbara DeCuir High School Teacher The LEAP 21 tests measure 4 th and 8 th th graders and one-third of the 8 th graders pass the test after attending summer school.

Recommendations of the Board of Regents` International Education Advisory Committee, 2003 Recommendation #1 Host a Postsecondary Education Symposium on International Education and Louisiana Business in spring 2004. Advisory Committee Rationale In order for Louisiana to reap the full benefits of the global marketplace in which it operates, Louisiana postsecondary education officials and leaders of the public and private sector must create more favorable attitudes towards international education. The proposed symposium will bring together interested participants from colleges and universities, government, business, and industry to plan and implement strategies for enhancing the contribution of Louisiana postsecondary education to the global dimension of Louisiana s economy. Staff Recommendation Staff concurs with the potential value of the proposed symposium and recommends that the Board of Regents sponsor and host such a symposium in spring, 2004.
