Schools and instruction must be designed and organized to meet the varying needs of individual learners....Alaska is striving to improve educational outcomes for all students." (Dr. Shirley Hollaway, Commissioner of Education for Alaska, in a speech given to the Special Education Directors' Conference, Anchorage, AK, September 1996) "The entire context of American education is changing. We need teachers skilled in using computers as a powerful teaching tool, and many more teachers well-versed in teaching English as a second language. Our teachers need to teach to a higher level of achievement, and be prepared to teach all of America's children-the gifted and talented, our many new immigrants, the college-bound achiever, and the disabled child who is learning so much more because he or she is now included."

Testimony by Minnesota State Representative Alice M. Seagren Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations Committee on Education and the Workforce United States House of Representatives Bloomington, Minnesota June 6, 2000 Congressman Hoekstra and Members of the Committee, Thank you for coming to Minnesota and inviting me to testify on the charter school system in our state. Charter schools have become a choice for parents and children within the public school system. Let me begin by giving you a brief history of charter schools in our state. As you may know, the idea for charter schools began in Minnesota in 1991. When first suggested, the program was politically contentious. Teacher unions and many school districts claimed that charter schools would destroy public education. Among the concerns sighted was the fear elitist schools would develop, siphoning off the best and brightest students. Another was the idea that charter schools were an attempt to break up the teacher unions. An argument was also made that if charter schools could be free of many of the regulations and mandates, why couldn't all public schools have the same exemptions. School boards also were concerned that they would lose some revenue as students left for charter schools. Nevertheless, the proposed legislation prevailed and charter schools were launched. Today, we have 69 charter schools in Minnesota either open or approved. Our law has continued to evolve from its original language which capped the growth of charter schools at 8 schools and was probably more restrictive in its inception than laws of other states that have followed. The St. Paul School District sponsors 12 charter schools.

The 2003 budget solution cut $185 million out of Minnesota public school education funding for Fiscal Years 2004 and 2005. No increase was adopted in the general education revenue formula for 2004 or 2005. Minneapolis Public Schools lost $14 million in revenue for the 2004-05 school year, after adjusting for enrollment declines, because of the 2003 cut in school funding. Minneapolis Public Schools revenue loss was among the largest in the state. The 2005 Legislature has an opportunity to correct the failure in the past budget cycle to fund public education.

Sitemap Search just this section Home FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Print View Setting the Record Straight About Minnesota School Finances Provided by the Alliance for Student Achievement. It's easy to get "shut down" in a conversation when you don't know the facts. Keep these talking points handy so you know how to respond when someone tries to stifle your concerns. Claim: Minnesota is the third highest taxed state in the nation. Response: Minnesota ranks 24th in total state and local government revenue as a percentage of personal income. Background: Minnesota state taxes per capita are the second highest in the nation, but Minnesota local taxes per capita are 32nd highest. State taxes in Minnesota are high because taxes collected at the state level are used to hold down local property taxes. It is misleading to cite the state tax ranking without also citing the local tax ranking. Nationally, state taxes comprise only about one-third of total state and local government revenue. State rankings based on government revenue per capita do not take into account higher labor costs in high wage states. (For example, it is not possible to hire and retain qualified teachers in a high-income state like Minnesota for the same amount as in a low-income state like Mississippi.) Ranking states based upon revenues or expenditures as a percentage of personal income is a practical way to adjust for the higher labor costs in high-income states and thus enables a more useful comparison than simple per capita rankings.

Mankato Schools Information Literacy Curriculum Guidelines Revised Spring 2003 These guidelines have been developed to help insure that all graduates of Mankato schools will have a variety of experiences using information and technology. These experiences will allow students to demonstrate mastery of a comprehensive group of specific skills. Teaching information skills is the joint responsibility of the building library media specialist and the classroom teacher. Information and technology skills are most meaningful when taught within a subject area, within an inter-disciplinary unit, or as part of an activity that addresses an authentic, real-life need or problem. Thoughtful planning and cooperation among all teachers and media specialists are essential. ISD77's information skills curriculum is centered around 2 common projects (click on agatha03) at each grade level during each school year. These projects: use a version of the Big6 c.
