  • Measuring 2Nd Annual
    2nd Annual Measuring at Halifax Area School District 2019 Message from the Superintendent The administrative team, our staff, and our school board of directors often have conversations about how to define “success” as it pertains to a school district. Some measure school districts through graduation rates, rankings, and test scores. Here at Halifax Area School District, we believe that there is more to success than just statistics and lists. This Measuring Success Framework emphasizes the areas of: academic achievement and growth, character development, school climate, the arts, wellness, and future readiness. By looking at success holistically for each student, we are able to see beyond the typical metrics and ensure that each student knows that he or she is more than just a test score. We are excited to share this publication that is a true reflection of the dedication and hard work of both our students and our staff. Our students continue to excel in academics, arts, and athletics, while also committing their time and energy to extracurricular activities and service that often have an impact beyond our community, region, and state. Our staff members are dedicated to making connections with their students and are committed to their social, emotional, and academic growth. nd We are proud to present the 2 Annual Measuring Success 2019 Report to students, families, staff, and our community. While this publication contains many elements of a typical annual report, including student demographics and financial information, it also paints a picture of our achievements, our focus, and our values as we continue to prepare all students for success in a changing world and to make a difference.

Gerald Longo, Clinical Associate Professor, Administrative and Policy Studies Rosalie Smiley, Associate Professor, California State University of Pennsylvania Dissertation Advisor: Noreen Garman, Associate Professor Emeritus, Administrative and Policy Studies Dissertation Co-Advisor: Michael G. Gunzenhauser, Associate Professor and Associate Dean ii Copyright © by Cheryl Rosylin McAbee 2018 iii An Analysis of Zero Tolerance Weapon Policies Related to the School-to-Prison Pipeline Phenomenon Cheryl Rosylin McAbee, JD, Ed.D. University of Pittsburgh, 2018 Pennsylvania schools adopted zero tolerance weapon policies to comply with the federal Gun-Free Schools Act (1994). Weapon definitions in school policies are broader than federal or Pennsylvania statutory definitions, and disproportionately affect racial minority students (Joint State Government Commission, 2016) and low income students and precipitate the school-to- prison pipeline (Giroux, 2003). Twelve Allegheny County school districts’ weapon definitions and high schools were studied utilizing a socio-ecological model to examine external socio-economic status and internal weapon policy (Capp et al., 2017). The purpose of the study was to determine if weapon definitions and memorandum of understanding (MOU) creation and implementation is influenced by socio- economic status and race.
