Community Service Learning and School-to-Career Initiatives: Case Studies of School, District and Community-Based Models In 1997, the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) published Connecting Service Learning and School-to-Career Initiatives based on the work of CCSSO's Service Learning Project, directed by Barbara Gomez . The Service Learning Project convened a series of meetings with school-to-career and service learning experts to discuss where and how connections between the these two national strategies could be made. The Project also conducted a national study of 12 exemplary school and community-based models where service learning and school-to-career programs are already connected and coordinated. The following examples from the CCSSO study demonstrate the various appporoaches school districts, schools and communities have taken to connect service learning and school-to-careers.

84. Governor Propses Eliminating Parent Options For High School Graduation Test from the high school graduation test and evaluated under alternative criteria How many wisconsin students will drop out of school because they fear http://www.fairtest.org/arn/wiscopt.html

Advocates for Education of Whitefish Bay, Inc. Governor Proposes Eliminating Parent Options for High School Graduation Test by Connie Gavin and Meredith Scrivner Governor Thompson recently announced plans to eliminate a parent's right to have his or her child excused from the high school graduation test and evaluated under alternative criteria developed by the local school district. Governor Thompson believes that all students should demonstrate their mastery of Wisconsin's new academic standards by taking and passing the Wisconsin high school graduation test in order to receive a high school diploma. For as long as Wisconsin has mandated state tests, parents have had the option of excusing their children from the tests. The original supporters of the concept believed that parents know their children best. Some children simply are not good test takers, or have other extenuating circumstances. The elimination of the parent option would eliminate choices and flexibility for parents and families, as well as result in questionable public policy. Less than two years ago, inclusion of the parent option was crucial to the passage of the graduation test requirement. The high school graduation test is frequently referred to as a high stakes test, in that a student must pass it in order to receive a diploma.

On a planet far, far away in a galaxy called the Milky Way, there was a public outcry for a stronger education of their young adults. The story goes that the young adults on the planet Earth were not educated in complete financial strategies. Many were graduating from high school and college (their education system) unable to make sound decisions about financial matters that they encounter from day to day. To ensure the continued leadership of the planet Earth, U.S. Bancorp sponsored the solution. U.S. Bank gathered a team of creative developers, educators and curriculum consultants to work tirelessly through the night to create "Escape From Knab, The Adventure." This simulation provides the young Earthlings with a fun set of tools to help prepare them to make financial decisions. And in the end, Earthlings will maintain their position as a leader in the galaxy. As the 6th largest bank in the United States, we know all about investments stocks, bonds, annuities, certificates of deposit and so on. We're also experienced in another kind of investment the investment we make every day in our communities, our neighborhoods and in one another. Our objective of "Escape From Knab" was to use existing Internet technology to position U.S. Bank as a provider of information and tools necessary to enable young adults to make better financial decisions.
