  • Serving Career and Technical Education Students in Pennsylvania
    Career and Technical Student Organizations Serving Career and Technical Education Students in Pennsylvania 1 Dear CTSO Leaders, As the leader of a statewide trade association dedicated to the growth and development of the technology industry in Pennsylvania, I am keenly aware of the need for a highly-skilled, well-trained, and motivated workforce. At the Technology Council of Pennsylvania, we are strong advocates for advancements in and the promotion of S.T.E.M. education, as well as career and technical training, in order to prepare our young people to succeed in the 21st Century, global economy. That is why we support the work of Pennsylvania’s Career and Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs) and the critical role they play in today’s education community. For nearly 70 years, CTSOs have been able to extend teaching and learning through a variety of targeted programs, public-private partnerships and leadership development initiatives that produce technically advanced, employable students to meet the needs of this country’s diverse employer base. Today, the work of CTSOs has never been more valuable as our economy demands workers with a strong understanding of science, technology, engineering and math concepts as well as hands-on technical expertise. The co-curricular approach of CTSOs uniquely positions these organizations to enhance student skill sets and better prepare them to excel in their chosen careers. In order for Pennsylvania and the United States to not only compete, but succeed on a global stage, we need to ensure that the very technology and innovation companies that are driving this global economy have the availability of a well-qualified workforce.

    http://www.ldnews.com/News/ci_25644556/Violence-threats-create-challenges-for-Lebanon Violence, threats create challenges for Lebanon County schools By Brad Rhen [email protected] @bradrhen on Twitter Updated: 04/27/2014 10:18:48 AM EDT ldnews.com Schools locally and across America are facing concerns about violence A little more than 15 years ago, American schools changed forever. On April 20, 1999, two students brought guns to Columbine High School in Littleton, Colo., and went on a shooting spree, killing 12 students and one teacher and wounding 21 more before turning the guns on themselves. Although there had been incidents violence at American schools before, and there have been others that claimed more victims since, Columbine touched a nerve in the American psyche. SEE ALSO: List of school shootings in the United States on Wikipedia View slide shows of the aftermath of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. In the 15 years since Columbine, hardly a year goes by, it seems, when there is not some sort of tragic event at a school in the United States. Virginia Tech, Sandy Hook, Nickel Mines — the names become immediately and horribly familiar. But the violence isn't just limited to guns. Earlier this month, a student brought two large knives to a high school in Murrysville in Western Pennsylvania and stabbed or slashed 21 students and one adult. Just Friday, a 16-year-old girl was stabbed to death at a school in Milford, Conn. Although Lebanon County has not seen major incidents of violence, the threat of violence and incidents of students bringing weapons onto school property are becoming more prevalent.

Participation in the comprehensive planning stemmed from administration to faculty, to parents, and involvement with community representatives. Each respective school building team analyzed data, reviewed guiding questions, developed action plans and identified specific implementation steps. The various district level administrators conducted follow-up sessions with the district's Staff Development Planning Team, Special Education Planning Team, and Technology Team. At this level needs assessments were conducted and action plans/implementation steps were identified. The multitude of meetings provided a means to an end where the vision was to develop strategic goals; rather than day-to-day operational goals.
