My district is considering changing from quarter reporting
and conferencing to trimesters. WE are trying to find
districts that have made the change and how it is working.
What steps did you go through? Report card changes?
Thanks

The Center on Alcohol Marketing and Youth is a new public
health project at Georgetown University funded by The Pew
Charitable Trusts and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
We're focusing attention and action on alcohol industry
marketing practices that jeopardize the health and safety of
youth, and hope to be active in Iowa. The information we
produce is often troubling to teachers and parents, since
the alcohol industry places ads where adults are less likely
to see them.
Some of our findings to date are:
* Youth ages 12-20 saw 45% more beer magazine ads and 27%
more hard liquor magazine ads in 2001 than people over 21.
That same age group saw 95 percent more beer magazine ads
than people over age 35. Yet youth saw 58% fewer magazine
ads for wine.
* Youth saw 60% more magazine ads for "malternatives," or
sweet low-alcohol refreshers like Smirnoff Ice and Mike's
Hard Lemonade, than adults.
* Youth saw more television commercials for beer and ale
than for fruit juice, gum, chips, sneakers or jeans in 2001.
* One quarter of alcohol advertising on television in 2001
was more likely to be seen by youth than adults.
Please contact me if you'd like brochures, newsletter
articles, reports, sample letters, a Power Point
presentation or other resources. For more information about
the Center on Alcohol Marketing and Youth, including tools
parents can use to gauge their children's exposure to
alcohol ads, please visit [link removed].

What better reason to not cut education than the fact
our representatives on both a state and federal level can't
balance a budget? A failing economy works in favor of
terrorism.

Does anyone know where to find our Title 1 rules and
regulation? We use to get info but now it is hard to find
