The City Council has created four voting districts, which each include about 8,000 voters: DISTRICT 1 will include the Richmar area and west to Poinsettia Avenue, east to Woodland Parkway, north to Borden Road and south to the 78 Freeway. DISTRICT 2 will include San Elijo Hills along with Old Creek Ranch, Discovery Hills, Rancho Dorado and the adjoining neighborhoods.

San Marcos now joins the more than 130 cities and school districts across the state that have switched from at-large elections to by-district elections since the CVRA was enacted in 2002. City of San Marcos | 360 | Fall 2018 3 City adopts $77 million balanced budget In June, the San Marcos City Council adopted a $77 million General Fund budget for the Fiscal Year 2018-19, which began July 1.

With a steady economy and positive national, statewide and regional economic indicators, the The general fund City has benefited from moderate revenue increases and projects nearly a 4.8 percent growth in pays for important revenue compared to last year.

City refinances bonds to save taxpayers $3.9 million This summer, the City of San Marcos refinanced $20.6 million of bonds that will save some property owners money on their Mello-Roos taxes that help pay for important things like grading, streets, utilities, parks and trails. Property owners in the San Elijo communities of Saverne, Azure, Cambria, Woodley’s Glen, Crestview, Waterford, Village Square and Westridge will see an average annual savings of $120 to $450 per residence on a portion of their property tax bill next year. The bond refinancing will collectively save residents in these neighborhoods about $3.9 million over the life of the bonds. The refunding reduced the net interest cost from 4.82 percent to 3.55 percent and was accomplished without extending the term of the bonds. 4 City of San Marcos | 360 | Fall 2018 Eastgate development earns award for design Eastgate—a new mixed-used development with affordable housing for families and veterans—won a Gold Nugget Award of Merit, a statewide honor that recognizes projects with The San Marcos Creek bridge project will help relieve flooding issues, improve traffic flow, support habitat conservation outstanding design.

  • Assisting Students Struggling with Mathematics: Response to Intervention (Rti) for Elementary and Middle Schools
    IES PRACTICE GUIDE WHAT WORKS CLEARINGHOUSE AssistingAssisting StudentsStudents StrugglingStruggling withwith Mathematics:Mathematics: ResponseResponse toto InterventionIntervention (RtI)(RtI) forfor ElementaryElementary andand MiddleMiddle SchoolsSchools NCEE 2009-4060 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION The Institute of Education Sciences (IES) publishes practice guides in education to bring the best available evidence and expertise to bear on the types of systemic challenges that cannot currently be addressed by single interventions or programs. Authors of practice guides seldom conduct the types of systematic literature searches that are the backbone of a meta-analysis, although they take advantage of such work when it is already published. Instead, authors use their expertise to identify the most important research with respect to their recommendations, augmented by a search of recent publications to ensure that research citations are up-to-date. Unique to IES-sponsored practice guides is that they are subjected to rigorous exter- nal peer review through the same office that is responsible for independent review of other IES publications. A critical task for peer reviewers of a practice guide is to determine whether the evidence cited in support of particular recommendations is up-to-date and that studies of similar or better quality that point in a different di- rection have not been ignored. Because practice guides depend on the expertise of their authors and their group decisionmaking, the content of a practice guide is not and should not be viewed as a set of recommendations that in every case depends on and flows inevitably from scientific research. The goal of this practice guide is to formulate specific and coherent evidence-based recommendations for use by educators addressing the challenge of reducing the number of children who struggle with mathematics by using “response to interven- tion” (RtI) as a means of both identifying students who need more help and provid- ing these students with high-quality interventions.

    98th REGULAR SESSION OEA/Ser. Q April 5 to 9, 2021 CJI/doc. 627/21 Virtual session February 17, 2020 Original: Portuguese PARTICULAR CUSTOMARY INTERNATIONAL LAW IN THE CONTEXT OF THE AMERICAS: SECOND REPORT (Presented by Dr. George Rodrigo Bandeira Galindo In the 95th regular session, held in Rio de Janeiro on July 31, 2019, the Inter-American Juridical Committee included in its work agenda the matter of Particular Customary International Law in the context of the Americas. On this occasion, I had the honor of being chosen as the rapporteur on this matter. In turn, in the 96th regular session, held in Rio de Janeiro from March 2 to 6, 2020, I presented my first report. On this occasion, I sought to begin with an approach to the subject from the perspective of international jurisprudence. A significant part of the doctrine on particular international law takes as its primary point of reference a series of cases decided by the International Court of Justice (hereinafter ICJ, or the Court) over the course of more than 50 years bearing –more or less directly– on the subject. This approach, which could be classified as overwhelmingly inductive, based on cases decided by the ICJ, offers clear advantages, although it is not without its drawbacks. Its greatest advantage lies in linking the study of particular customary international law with relevant judicial practice –thus avoiding arguments of a theoretical nature with little practical application. On the other hand, the great risk of such an approach is in presupposing a certain coherence between the decisions of the ICJ over a long period of time and thereby drawing abstract conclusions from the characteristics of concrete cases.
