Education Posted 07/31/2005 East Central hosts geography institute ADA — Nearly 20 teachers, some from as far away as Kansas, are attending a Geography Basics Institute in Ada this week. Co-sponsored by East Central University, the Oklahoma State Department of Education, and the Oklahoma Alliance for Geographic Education (OKAGE), the Institute is taught by Glenda Sullivan, a retired teacher and OKAGE consultant, and Dr. Marco Micozzi, ECU professor of cartography and geography. Among those attending the Institute are elementary, middle school and high school teachers of social studies, mathematics, science, music, humanities, and language arts in both public and parochial schools. These nineteen teachers are spending a week of their summer vacations learning more about geography and how to infuse geography into all academic disciplines across the curriculum. In addition to the traditional college classroom setting, several unique historic and geographic places in Ada will serve as teaching and learning sites for the Institute, including the one room schoolhouse in Wintersmith Park. The teachers will also take a field trip to the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge and Mount Scott near Lawton to “do” human and physical geography by studying the interaction among soils, vegetation, climate, geology and the human imprint on the landscape. They will also visit a wind farm which generates electricity, abandoned gold mining sites in the Wichita Mountains, and the earthquake sensing station in historic Meers, Oklahoma.

103. ReligionLink - A Guide To Covering Cleveland School Voucher Case SimmonsHarris, which addresses the constitutionality of a school voucher limited public funding of parochial school materials and was considered to be http://www.religionlink.org/tip_020603a.php

Culture Government Religion Society JUNE 3, 2002 SUPREME COURT A guide to covering Cleveland school voucher case here Issues at stake Several major issues were at stake in the decision, which was among the most contentious of all of the Supreme Court's cases this term. Among the areas this decision will touch are: Education : The ruling will impact the discussion of funding for public schools, which was a contentious issue during the 2000 campaign. Proponents of vouchers argue that the government should spend its money in the most productive educational environments regardless of religious affiliation; opponents argue that government funds should remain in public, secular school settings. Church-State Separation : Strict church-state separationists oppose all school voucher programs because they feel that such programs give students incentives to attend religious schools, in violation of the establishment clause of the Constitution. Supporters of vouchers counter that the programs provide students with a wider range of choicesincluding both religious and secular schoolsso that they can receive the best education possible. Faith-Based Initiative : The Court's ruling will likely impact the larger debate about President Bush's faith-based initiative , in that whether government money is allowed to fund religious education may fuel the arguments of either those who do not want government grants to fund faith-based organizations, or those who do.

Mrs. Sarah Love loaned it to the St. Clair Chronicle, date of publication not known. This picture was digitized from that newspaper picture and is of very poor quality. It is one more example of an institution that is rapidly fading from our memory. Perhaps some chance viewer may have a better picture they would share. (He was almost ashamed to send such a poor picture but the identification of the students needs to be preserved in case someone finds the actual photograph). Front Row
