A recent report from the New England School Development Council offers strategies to help build strong school board-superintendent teams. Included: Practical suggestions from the report and comments from officials of national school leadership organizations. School boards need to focus more on setting policy and less on micro-managing superintendents and school systems, according to a New England School Development Council (NESDC) report. The council advises boards and superintendents to work more as teams and less as adversaries.

The program operates at the high schools during the school year and includes an intensive six week summer academic, cultural and counseling program on the Wesleyan campus. Wesleyan Upward Bound is operated by the University with grants from the U.S. Department of Education, the Connecticut Department of Higher Education (*Connecticut Collegiate Awareness and Preparation Program) and the Middletown, Meriden and Portland Boards of Education.

Network December 2002 Students on Boards of Education Resource Guide -First Edition- Compiled by the Campaign for Meaningful Student Involvement A program of The Freechild Project PO Box 6185 Olympia, WA 98507 www.freechild.org Description A multi-topic resource guide promoting Student Voice, Participation, Engagement, Involvement, and Representation on Local, District, Regional, and State Boards of Education. Includes research, examples, and other resources for students, educators, administrators, and concerned community members who support validating student voice in school decision-making by including students on school boards. Introduction STUDENT participation on boards of education is a small part of a much larger movement towards meaningful student involvement throughout education. Since the 1960s this effort has waxed and waned, according to the will of school officials and the sincere interest of students involved. Today that tide is turning, and students across the US are calling for deepened engagement in the decision-making that affects them on all levels - in the classroom, in the auditorium, and in the boardroom. In Washington state the Seattle Young People's Project is calling for two students - one male, one female - to be elected to the school board through popular vote among students. These students would ideally represent the diversity and power of young people throughout the district. The Washington State Resource Guide is being created to support the work of these young people in their struggle, as well as the adults who ultimately choose the fate of student voice on the school board.

37. Senator Kevin B. Sullivan: Press Release Speaking today in front of local education officials at the connecticut Associationof boards of education's (CABE's) annual Day on the Hill, Senate http://www.senatedems.state.ct.us/sullivan-030305b.html

March 5, 2003 Sullivan Addresses Local Education Officials at C.A.B.E.'s Annual "Day on the Hill" Speaking today in front of local education officials at the Connecticut Association of Boards of Education's (CABE's) annual "Day on the Hill," Senate President Pro Tempore Kevin B. Sullivan (DWest Hartford) said, "There is no question that tough times still lie ahead for Connecticut but creating a leaner budget does not mean making a leaner meaner budget; it means making a leaner smart budget. And our commitment to education must remain strong." The event, which is sponsored annually by CABE, is an opportunity for members to meet with and discuss pending legislation with state lawmakers. CABE is a non-profit organization aimed at assisting local and regional boards of education through lobbying efforts, workshops, and providing legal, policy, and negotiation support. During his remarks, Sullivan said, "The governor was right when he said that no one was going to like his budget. No one does. His budget proposal does not hit any area harder than it does education. From college aid to core local school funding the governor has proposed reductions in all educational areas. That means that most school districts will actually be getting less of lessnot less of more. The proposed budget from the administration produced absolute reductions in state funding to education, and worse yet, real policy changes in the fairness of the distribution of the Educational Cost Sharing (ECS) grant."
