Each abstract was provided by the project'sown local staff. (For more detail, see Introduction). CHANGES OVER PREVIOUS EDITIONS Readers of previous PACE catalogs will notice the followingchanges; some were made for utility, others to reduce cost of publication. *Arrangement: All abstracts are arranged by their project number. Thus, the oldest projects come first in the book. Also, guidance projects are now interfiled with regular and handicapped projects. *Indexes: All indexes are printed on coloredpaper and appear at the end of the abstracts. In addition to the subject listing/grade level index (example-- environmental education/middle school)an alphabetical listing by grantee (sponsoring school district), anda title listing by Inter- mediate Unit, are included. Note that all indexes refer to project number, not page numbers. *Binding: As a cost reduction measure, recipients of PACE in Penn- sylvania, 1974 are asked to supply their owncover and binding (the catalog is pre-punched for standard three ring binders). *Distribution: Also, as a cost reduction measure, no general distri- bution of this PACE document is planned. Rather, Superintendents, Project Directors and selected Intermediate Unit staff shall receivedirect an- nouncement of the availability of the document and instructionson how to request single copies. After a given time period, general availability will be announced through broad audience mechanisms suchas the R.I.S.E. Newsletter. In all cases, single copy requests will be honoredon a first come, first served basis, as long as supplies last. THE FUTURE With the activation of P.L. 93-380, ESEA Title IIIis consolidated under Part IV-C. Therefore, it is unlikely that a new edition of PACE in Pennsylvania shall be produced. However, the Pennsylvania Department of Education willpro- bably develop and produce a catalog type publication to disseminate descriptions of exemplary and innovative projects funded under thenew Part IV-C of P.L. 93-380. 3 Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Milton J.

Discontented with some of the educational practices in basic education, Congress earmarked money for different kinds of categorical aid in the form of various titles. One of these, Title III, was designed to bring about creative solutionsto educational problems. Title III or PACE (Projects to Advance Creativity in Ed'.ication) attempts to encourage .... new ways of teaching by providing needed services for children and ad,,pting and demonstrating exemplary programs based on proven practices. Since 1967, 15% of all Title III dollars has been spent in programs for the handicapped and after July 1,1970, 15% was spent on guidance and counseling projects. For the first three years, grants were made

  • 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.

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.
