L------~ Christina COMMUNICATOR Spring 1993 SUPERINTENDENT'S MESSAGE: RESTRUCTURING SCHOOLS ''REMODELING THE AIRPLANE IN FLIGHT'' Recently, the Christina administration received a request from the management of the Newark Chrysler Plant to use school classrooms to retrain employees to build the new Chrysler "Intrepid" model. Christina was delighted to offer classrooms after school hours. The Chrysler Plant is very important to the economy of the community. Many Christina parents are employees of the Newark Plant and Chrysler has been a major contributor to the Right to Read Program in the Christina School District. This program encourages our students to read by providing thousands of free books.

There is a strong parallel between Chrylser's introduction of a new model car and what we envision as a restructured or remodeled school district. Restructuring efforts in the Christina School District involve a systemic change. It demands a change in the entire process of educating children. Restructuring is an effort to create a new model of education to better meet the needs of students who will live and work in the 21st century. Of course, in a school district you cannot shut the plant down to remodel and update. Our school remodeling efforts are more like rebuilding the airplane in flight.

Another amazing remodeling effort from the world of business is the phenomenal training that was necessary to produce General Motors Saturn automobile. Reportedly, it took 600 courses and 92 hours of instruction per employee to make a better automobile. It will take much, much more time to make better schools.

What is the vision of this new model of education in Christina? What does it include? It includes parents and teachers actively involved in decision making at the school level. You often hear this referred to as site based management. Key to restructuring are important changes in the way we teach and operate schools:

• Greater control of the schools are vested at the building level.

• Equity and excellence are demanded. World class standards must translate into excellence for all students, not just a few.

• Students must improve in their basic skills achievement. Knowledge of science, math and language must be equal or superior to that of students in public or private schools in Delaware, the nation and around the world.

• Technology should allow students to enter data banks connecting them with libraries throughout Delaware, the nation and the world from a computer on their desk tops.

• Drug abuse intervention programs and conflict resolution programs should improve school climates to assure safe citadels for intellectual achievement.

• All high school graduates through a Warranty Program should leave high school with a mastery of at least two algebra courses and should go to a two year community college program or four year college program. All students should have the opportunity to take college courses in high school through the community college Tech­ Prep Program or through advanced placement in four year institutions. A strong apprenticeship program should give students real life work experiences before leaving high school.

• Each child should accelerate to maximize their potential throogh recognizing the individualll"mlling styles of each student.

What is needed in the Christina School District to make our model of restructuring a reality? Certainly the understanding and cooperation of parents and citizens are very necessary, but we also need time. Tune for our teachers to reflect. Tune for our teachers to learn. What if we were to provide at least two weeks of additional staff development time? Could we afford to pay our teachers during training? By our best estimation, this would cost the District at least $6 million. Should we do that when we made a commitment not to seek a general fund referendum in the near future? The answer is, of course, let's keep our commitment not to seek a tax increase in the next three years. At this point, my additional funda are best suited for investment in textbooks and technology. Yet, should we abandon our vision to remodel and restructure our school district? There is a possibility, however, that we could allow teachers the time to learn, retool and restructure over an extended period of a week or more without additional costs. That's less time than the major automobile makers use to train workers to produce new cars.

An innovative proposal, "Banking Tune", has been brought to the District by the Brookside School Restructuring Council. It is a model that has the support of the Brookside staff, parents and greater community. Brookside teachers are committed to instruct for a longer school day creating additional instructional days. A part of the additional instruction time would be used for teacher retraining. With the Banking Tune Model, six days could be added to teacher staff development time. This is a powerful concept. One that will provide the instructional time dictated by the State Board of Education and the Christina Board of Education but.will allow the teachers to retool, rethink, and prepare the new model of education in the Christina School District. Most importantly, the proposal would not cost taxpayers additional funds. We applaud the Brookside School Restructuring Council. This is a wonderful example of parents and staff working together to seek good solution for improving education and change in the schools.

As we study the model proposed by the Brookside School Restructuring Council we see it as a model that could work for the entire Christina School District. Please see page 11 with an itemized account of the proposal and dates listed for the public forums.

A Cluistina School District that is a model for the 21st centrury is not only a vision but it can be a reality if we can work together to support the retraining and redirection that is needed to restructure the school district.
