Return: Home CEEP Publications ERIC/EECE Publications Digests Beyond Transition: Ensuring Continuity in Early Childhood Services Joan Lombardi EDO-PS-92-3 In the early childhood field, the word transition is used in many different ways. Traditionally, transition has been used to describe the period of time that falls between two different types of activities. Transition may also be used to describe the time period in which children move from home to school, from school to after-school activities, from one activity to another within a preschool, or from preschool to kindergarten. In each case, early childhood professionals have been concerned with easing the transition between two different types of activities or environments. Continuity: a Concept Revisited With more and more children participating in early childhood programs before they enter school, there is an increasing focus on the transition that occurs when children move from preschool to kindergarten. Many children have problems adjusting to elementary school programs that have a different philosophy, teaching style, and structure than those programs in which they participated during their earlier years. Transition efforts were designed to help ease the entry into school by preparing both children and families for the differences children will encounter.

Baltimore Sun NEW PRIVATE SCHOOL LICENSING PROVISIONS ACCEPTED BY WYOMING STATE BOARD. Detailed rules for licensing private schools, including universities that offer distance learning, were approved earlier this week by the Wyoming State Board of Education. The rule change came after discussions last fall about alleged violations, including schools not maintaining space in the state and insufficient translation and evaluation of foreign student credentials. Although agreeing in general with the changes, Trent Blankenship, superintendent of public instruction, believes the state should require accreditation from a third party and expects legislation to accomplish this will be introduced next year. The new rules also outline specific steps to pull a license from a school. Source:

EDUCATION LAW UPDATE Winter 2001 Citizens' Complaints and the Responsibilities of Boards of Education in West Virginia Citizens' Complaints In order to provide a means for non-employees of a school system to voice concern and seek change in the education system, the West Virginia Department of Education adopted State Board Policy 7211: Appeals Procedure for Citizens. Policy 7211 (available, along with the appeal forms, at http://wvde.state.wv.us/policies/p7211.html), pursuant to W.Va. Code §18-2-5, establishes a four level appeals process for citizens that is unrelated to the State Employees Grievance Board. The citizens' appeals procedures are not deemed to be a precondition for seeking relief in another forum. A citizen's appeal is a claim of a violation of state law or State Board policy, rule, or regulation. The written appeal must identify the specific statute, policy, rule, or regulation allegedly violated and must provide as much information as possible about the alleged violation. According to Policy 7211, an appeal shall not be made in "any situation where the county board of education is without authority to act or where the method of appeal is specifically established by law, such as appeals regarding the placement of exceptional children and discipline." Appeals concerning personal complaints against school employees are also not covered under Policy 7211.

While safety is always a priority, this responsibility takes on added urgency during times when the commonwealth and nation are threatened by terrorism. The Virginia Department of Education offers the Model School Crisis Management Plan for use by local educators and law enforcement officers in developing or refining school division-level and building-level crisis plans. The Model School Crisis Management Plan includes model policies, procedures, and forms that can be adopted or modified to meet local needs and accommodate existing resources. The pdf version of the Model School Crisis Management Plan may be viewed and printed using Adobe Acrobat. If you do not have Adobe's Acrobat Reader you may download it here.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 8, 1999 CONTACT: Dr. Cynthia A. Cave BOARD PRESIDENT ANNOUNCES MEMBERS OF VIRGINIA STANDARDS OF LEARNING TEST ADVISORY COMMITTEE Richmond, July 8, 1999. Kirk T. Schroder, President of the Virginia Board of Education, announced today the appointment of the members of the Virginia Standards of Learning (SOL) Assessment Program Advisory Committee, created by the Virginia Board of Education in April of this year. The committee will be co-chaired by Jennifer Curtis Byler, member of the Virginia Board of Education, and Dr. Mark Edwards, Superintendent of Henrico County Public Schools. While many appointees are from organizations representing parent, education, business, and political interests, several members are parents who wrote to Schroder seeking appointment to the committee. Schroder interviewed prospective citizen members who wrote to him expressing an interest in serving on the committee. The advisory committee is a standing committee of the Board. Its purpose is to provide advice to the Board on issues concerning the implementation of the SOL test program. The Board decided to create an ongoing SOL test advisory committee at its October 30, 1998 meeting, prior to making decisions on the passing scores for the tests. At that time, Board members authorized Schroder to make the initial appointment of members. All subsequent appointments will be made by the full Board. Committee members serve a three-year term to be staggered to ensure equal and proper rotation of membership.
