INSTITUTION Heritage Foundation, Washington, DC. PUB DATE 1995-03-00 NOTE 83p. AVAILABLE FROM Heritage Foundation, Publications Department, 214 Massachusetts Avenue, N.E., Washington, DC 20002-4999; fax: 202-544-2260. PUB TYPE Reports Descriptive (141) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC04 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Charter Schools; Educational Change; *Educational Vouchers; Elementary Secondary Education; Federal Legislation; *Free Choice Transfer Programs; Grants; *Private Sector; Program Development; *School Choice; State Legislation; *State Programs ABSTRACT School choice advocates made many advances in 1994, and many states seem ready to pass school choice legislation in 1995. This report describes the state of school choice efforts in the individual states. School choice advocates look for action by the Federal Government as Congress discusses ways to help states implement choice, whether by vouchers, block grants, or other approaches. In 1994 there were increased numbers of privately sponsored school choice programs funded by corporations, individuals, and charitable organizations. Analysis of the reports from individual states yields information about school choice. Of the 44 state legislatures that met in 1994, some sort of school choice legislation was introduced or pending in 25 states. Forty state governors have indicated their support for school choice, and at least 41 states have significant policy groups or grassroots coalitions working for school choice. Ten states have implemented charter school legislation, and many other states are deliberating about charter schools. Several thousand students attended the school of their choice under 1 of 16 privately sponsored voucher programs in 1994.

It was described in detail in the subpoena -- the resolution that supports the subpoena which is demanding the production of documents and the appearance of certain witnesses here today. I just wanted to begin -- before we welcome and swear in the first witness -- that the contractor for the State of New Jersey who was hired to help draft, edit, and prepare the Race to the Top application was in court this morning before Judge Feinberg, with the Attorney General’s office, attempting to raise certain privileges -- executive privilege, other privileges as well -- that would have resulted in Wireless not appearing and producing documents before the Committee.

  • Press Release ** Mayor Fulop Invites All Living Jersey City Mayors For
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Kimberly Scalcione November 12, 2019 M: 201-376-0699 E: [email protected] ** Press Release ** Mayor Fulop Invites all Living Jersey City Mayors for Historic Event to Address Census 2020 JERSEY CITY –Mayor Steven Fulop has invited all living former Mayors to City Hall on Wednesday, November 13, 2019 to participate in a historic Census 2020 awareness event. For the first time in the history of Jersey City, the current and former Mayors will join forces to advocate for the upcoming Census 2020 count, addressing the importance of the Census and how it ultimately effects the people, the culture, the infrastructure, and all other critical aspects that make Jersey City the great city it is today. The U.S. constitution mandates the federal government count every resident of the United States every 10 years. It’s estimated that for every resident not accounted for, the city will lose out on $15,000 in federal funding over the next ten years. Mayor Fulop, understanding the importance of the Census and its implications for the next decade, spearheaded this historic event and has kept Jersey City at the forefront as this once-in-a-decade event nears. “The goal is to come together and to show our community how important it is to be fully counted next spring. The Census impacts every aspect of our city and our community – from emergency response, to schools, to our congressional districts,” said Mayor Fulop. “An inaccurate count of Jersey City’s residents in the past has led to unfair and unequal political representation and inequitable access to vital public and private resources.

  • Études at Play : Narrative Identity in Adolescents with Chronic Illness
    Études at play: Narrative Identity in Adolescents with Chronic Illness in Contemporary Young Adult Literature Volume 1 Exegesis Pamela Jane Harvey Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communication (246AA) November 2018 Faculty of Arts & Design, University of Canberra - i - Abstract Storytelling gives voice to people’s experiences, assisting them in making meaning of their lives and their place in it. It is also integral to a person’s narrative identity and the sense of self created through these stories. Philosopher Paul Ricoeur asserts that narrative identity is not present at a story’s beginning but born in the telling, creating a future for the narrator. For some, the effects of ongoing illness complicate narrative identity and storytelling becomes an avenue to express what it is to live with the effects of disease and how it shapes self. The resultant stories are known as illness narratives. Illness narratives form a burgeoning category of autobiography but published texts are limited to mostly adult storytellers. This thesis examines contemporary young adult fictional illness narratives (‘illness fictions’) as a cohort of books that act as transformative texts in the interpretation and understanding of the illness experience. Sociologist Arthur Frank’s illness narrative typology, based on Paul Ricoeur’s idea of narrative identity and consisting of three categories, provides a lens through which to interrogate these texts and their narrative type. While Frank’s typology is a useful initial tool, its application to stories of ill adolescents is restrictive. This thesis extends the illness narrative typology to five categories in order to create a more nuanced framework for the investigation and creation of illness.
