Collins Master of Public Administration Department of Planning, Public Policy and Management June 2011 Title: Creative Measures: Access to Arts Education in Oregon Public Schools Approved: __________________________________________________ Dr. Jean Stockard A growing body of research documents the benefits of learning in and through the arts, from academic achievement to personal efficacy. Federal law recognizes the arts as a core subject area for K-12 public schools, and Oregon content standards articulate sequential expectations of what all students should know and be able to do in the disciplines of music, theatre, dance, and visual arts. Despite these statutory commitments, little is known about the actual condition of arts education in Oregon public schools.

  • Without Consent an Analysis of Student Directory Information Practices in U.S
    Without Consent An analysis of student directory information practices in U.S. schools, and impacts on privacy by Pam Dixon data visualization: John Emerson editing: Robert Gellman embargoed draft Without Consent: An analysis of student directory information practices in U.S. schools, and impacts on privacy World Privacy Forum www.worldprivacyforum.org © Copyright 2020 Pam Dixon, Author; Robert Gellman, Editor Cover and design by John Emerson All rights reserved. EBook/Digital: ISBN: 978-0-9914500-1-5 Publication Date: April 2020 Nothing in this material constitutes legal advice. Brief Summary of Report If data is the new oil, then student data is among the most desirable data wells of all. While some states have enacted laws to better protect students and their privacy, policymakers have left a formidable front door open: that is, the ability for detailed student information to be made public by schools un- der an exemption in the federal student privacy law, the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. This exemption is called the Directory Information exemption. When schools choose to, they can designate certain student information of their choice to be made public without prior consent. This information becomes directory information. To provide a balance, Congress provided a right that stu- dents and parents can restrict unconsented public disclosure of their directory information. Eligible students can place this restriction on their directory information by submitting an opt out request at the school. Parents or guardians of students under 18 will have to place the restriction for the student. This right to restrict disclosure is an essential one, but students, parents and others may not be aware of the importance and profound privacy impact of this information.

  • 2009 REPORT to the COMMUNITY Bodyvox, Foot Opera Files, (Photo: Michael Shea, Polara Studios): General Support Welcome
    2009 REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY BodyVox, Foot Opera Files, (Photo: Michael Shea, Polara Studios): General Support WELCOME Reflecting on this past year of financial challenges, we are struck by the resilience, creativity and determination of people in our region. Last year as we wrote this letter we faced an uncertain future and RACC vowed to do everything possible to support artists and arts organizations through this tough time. While the future remains murky, we have positive things to report from this past year – details of which run through this annual report. Thanks to enlightened and committed elected leaders, RACC held its entire grants program whole and supplemented it with Work for Art dollars, which increased by 19%. People in our region care and they give. The Transit Mall reopened with 10 previously sited artworks cleaned, conserved and re-installed in new locations. Joining them were 14 new artworks, creating a sizable public collection of Northwest sculptures. RACC was delighted to partner with TriMet throughout this four-year undertaking and will be caretakers of all the public art on the mall. Americans for the Arts recently announced that RAcc’s Public Art Program is one of the top five award-winning programs nationally, which makes us very proud. The Right Brain Initiative continues to grow. All 20 original schools returned and Portland Public Schools was able to add three new ones. We anticipate having ever-greater evidence of the value of integrated arts learning at the end of this first full year of programming. We thank all of our partners, funders and participants for this growing success.
