Add your comments Reader Comments Posted Aug 2, 2005, 2:19 PM ET by Uncle Roger The constitution says "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion" which is generally interpreted as meaning the government should leave the whole business of religion up to the people to figure out on their own. Specifically, the government should not promote any one particular religion over any others. But a bible-only class? Bzzzt. Wrong answer! Posted Aug 2, 2005, 3:00 PM ET by Duane Don't I remember correctly that in high school social studies classes we learned all about world religion and their associated texts? Granted we didn't go through the Bible per se, anymore than we read the Upanishads, but we did certainly get a taste of all of them - [timeframe][name of prophet][name of holy book][commandments][afterlife] and so on. I remember it vividly because the class was taught by Mr. Raiss, a devout Muslim who was rumored to keep a prayer rug in the closet, and one particular class where he ruthlessly mocked a student for pronouncing it "mozzlem", making him say it over and over again (without telling him what was wrong) until finally he said, "Do you see a Z in that word? I see an S. Musslim." I always remembered that as the proper pronunciation, though.

Jones as chairman. After some preliminary remarks by Dr. Jones, he called on Dean Henry E. Meyer, who outlined the need of some form of conference for teachers of music on the college level in order that standards might be set up within the state and maintained with some degree of uniformity, and in order that Second Meeting In response to letters dated Nov. 1 and 14,1938, sent out by Dr. Wm.

47. STUDENT ASSESSMENT AND PERFORMANCE Unlike most other states, texas schools ratings are based not only on the aggregate 11 schools must demonstrate levels of performance for the general http://www.cppp.org/kidscount/education/sap.html

Performance TAAS Uses Standards Conclusion ... TAAS Data S TUDENT A SSESSMENT AND P ERFORMANCE Released: November 13, 1998 There are many environmental and social factors that can affect how well students perform in school. Class size, teacher training, or whether the parents are involved in the child's education can impact how well students will perform. Further, whether a child went to preschool, if he/she is hungry or has other health or personal problems will also affect student achievement. Many of these factors are addressed in other reports in this series on education (see the Measuring Up report entitled Overview of Education in Texas for more discussion). This report will focus on the standards and tests schools used to measure student and school performance. The primary method for evaluating the academic achievement of students in Texas public schools is a standardized test called the Texas Assessment of Academic Skills (TAAS). Although the TAAS test was originally designed to measure individual student's achievement, in recent years the results of the tests have also been used to evaluate groups of students as well as schools and school districts. TAAS results are also used to determine whether students should be allowed to graduate. Student Performance The Texas Assessment of Academic Skills (TAAS) measures how well Texas students are faring academically in basic subjects such as math, reading, and writing. TAAS tests are administered to grades 3 through 8 and the 10th grade. More students in Texas are passing the TAAS tests than ever before. The percent of all students who passed the TAAS test increased by 39 percent for math, 14 percent for reading, and 11 percent for writing between 1994 and 1998. The greatest improvements have been seen in the math test scores, with African American students showing the largest gains in math (from 55% in 1996 to 64% just one year later).

School nurses should be trained in protection, detection, and treatment of victims of such events and in the command and control management techniques of the logistics of such a situation. The strategic position of well-prepared nurses within the school environment has significant potential for minimizing the effects of a bioterrorist attack in school settings and, subsequently, in the community at large 3p.

Currently, more than half the school districts in Region XIII are covered by the network of Polycom ViewStations, and the Texas Education Service Center hopes to link every district in the near future. Region XIII of the Texas Education Service Center is deploying video communications to ensure equal opportunities for access to content for every participating district regardless of size or location. Although there are several large districts in the region, most of the districts are remote and very small, the smallest comprised of only 26 students. Region XIII administrators believe interactive video communications will improve the quality of education for students in Texas, especially those who are advanced or have special needs. In addition, teachers, administrators and staff members now have greater and more convenient access to professional development opportunities that some currently must travel hours to attend. Region XIII developed a strict set of criteria to evaluate interactive video communications systems and chose Polycom's ViewStation for its smooth, full-motion images at up to 30 frames per second, exceptionally clear voice quality, ease of use and affordability.
