Following i a summary of actions taken by the Board, s effective for the 1987-88 school year: 1 . Drew Model School. The percentage of the student population at the school, excluding kindergarten, from the local Nauck community was increased from 20 per­ cent to 25 percent. Kindergarten children residing in the Nauck community will continue to attend Drew Model School. The Montessori Program will continue to admit students under existing policy. 2. Nauck community grades 1-6, 7-8, 9-12 attendance. Attendance boundaries for chil­ dren grades 1-6 residing in the Nauck Community were redesigned so that children will attend only one school for these grades and will attend school with children residing in the same general neighborhood within Nauck. All the streets below are located in south Arlington, and most have "south" as part of the street name -- e.g. South Glebe Road. This designation has been omitted from the following descriptions to reduce confusion. Barcroft-----> Williamsburg----- > York town Beginning at the intersection of Walter Reed Drive, Glebe Road, and 17th Street, the boundary runs east along 17th Street to the Army-Navy Country Club; south along the border of the Club to the intersection of Glebe Road and 24th Road; west along 24th Road to Drew Elementary School; north along the western boundary of the school property to the intersection of 22nd Street and Lowell Street; north on Lowell Street to the intersection with 19th Street and Kenmore Street; east on 19th Street to Glebe Road; and north on Glebe Road to the intersection of Glebe Road, Walter Reed Drive, and 17th Street. Abingdon---- Kenmore------- ^ Wakefield Beginning at the intersection of Glebe Road and Route 395, southwest along Route 395 to Four Mile Run Drive, northwest on Four Mile Run Drive to Oxford Street, north on Oxford Street to Oakland Street, continuing north on Oakland Street to 22nd Street, east on 22nd Street to Nelson Street, south on Nelson Street to 24th Road, east on 24th Road to Glebe Road, and south on Glebe Road to Route 395. Randolph-----> Swanson---- ^ Washington-Lee Beginning at the intersection of Walter Reed Drive and Four Mile Run, north on Walter Reed Drive to Glebe Road, south on Glebe Road to 19th Street, west on 19th Street to a straight line extending from Lowell Street and then south along Lowell Street to 22nd Street, continuing south along the western border of Drew Elementary School to 24th Road, west on 24th Road to Nelson Street, north on Nelson Street to 22nd Street, west on 22nd Street to Oakland Street, south on Oakland Street to Oxford Street, continuing south on Oxford Street to Four Mile Run, and west on Four Mile Run to Walter Reed Drive.A map is attached for reference. �Phasing in Process. Students currently in grades 5 and 7 may remain in their current schools to complete their current levels of education for grades 6 and 8, should they wish to do so. Younger siblings also may stay in their current schools, but only until the older sibling leaves. Transportation will be provided. Students currently in grades 4 and 5 assigned to schools located in the north part of Arlington may complete their elementary school experiences at their current schools, should they wish to do so. Younger siblings attending these same schools may continue to attend them only as long as the older sibling remains in that school. Transportation will be provided. Barcroft 4th grade students given special permission by the School Board in spring 1986 to stay in that school through sixth grade will be able to do so. 3. Dolly Madison Apartments. Students will continue their existing school attendance pattern of Oakridge Elementary School, Thomas Jefferson Intermediate School, and Wakefield High School. 4. Arlington View Community. Elementary school assignments remain as they currently exist. All Arlington View students will attend Thomas Jefferson Intermediate School and Washington-Lee High School. Students currently attending Kenmore Intermediate School or Wakefield High School may complete their education at that level in their current schools, should they wish to do so. Transportation will be provided. Younger siblings may elect to attend Wakefield High School if an older sibling cur­ rently attends the school and will continue to be attending that school when the younger sibling enters grade 9. 5. Orme, Ode, and Oak Streets. Students were reassigned from Washington-Lee High School to Wakefield High School. The one student currently attending, and younger siblings, may continue to attend Washington-Lee High School, with transportation, should they wish. No school attendance changes were made at the elementary or intermediate levels. 6. Instructional Transfer Policy. Racial/ethnic quotas were eliminated from this policy. The four (4) percent limit was retained for the numbers of students any school may admit under this policy. The Instructional Transfer Policy is available to all students in elementary and intermediate schools but i not applicable to high school attendance. s - 2 - �In other action, the Board directed the Superintendent to do the following; 1.

Banay told a symposium on violence held by the M edical C o r rectional Assn. The 37 watched for more than 30 minutes while a killer stalked and stabbed the young woman while she cried for help. Only one person placed a call to the police and that was done after the victim was already dead. “These people were deaf, paralyzed, hypnotized with excitation. . .fascinated by the drama, by the action, and yet not entirely sure that what was taking place was actually hap pening,” said Dr. Banay. “ We underestimate the damage that these accumulated images do to the brain”, he stated. Today's Child The gross injustices of Virginia’s poll tax and malapportioned legislature have oppressed our citizens for too many years. At long last some of the chains restricting the size of our electorate were broken. It took the tortuous trail of a constitutional amendment to abolish the poll tax as a prerequisite for voting for federal offices. Happily Virginia registrars are reporting record registrations for the November 3 elections. The desperate chicanery of a “certificate of residence” in federal elections as a wishful substitute for the outlawed poll tax was prop erly struck down by federal court action. Let’s hope the enlarged electorate comes out with a resounding vote to establish conclusively the new forces to be reckoned with in Virginia politics.

At the Leadership Training Institute I asked all of us to look ahead toward the future of the Arlington County School System. Here are some questions I asked: What efforts or plans does Arlington have to attract and use Federal funds and foundation funds to institute new educational programs? The rising national concern about our undereducated youth has led to the availability of funds from both these sources for pilot and demonstrative projects. What early retirement programs does Arlington need to develop so that educators have the security of knowing that should there occur an early disability, as for instance, a heart attack, their financial security would be protected? The Federal government, recognizing that a child’s learning difficulties usually start very early in his educational career, is beginning to help subsidize elementary school guidance. What plans does Arlington have for elementary school guidance? Arlington currently has standards for the number of pupils per teacher. What plans does it have for establishing standards for the number of students per administrator, the number of teachers per supervisor, the number of teachers per helping teacher, the number of students per librarian, the number of teachers per secretary? What plans does Arlington have to provide for the inservice training of administrators to upgrade those in service and develop administrative potential from those already in Arlington service? What plans does Arlington have to improve its basic salary scale, the scale with which we must recruit teachers new to Arlington, this year 15% of our total staff? What plans do we have for recognizing teachers who earn advanced degrees? We have a large and very rich reservoir of highly trained, very able people available for use during the summer months. How can Arlington take advantage of this resource to strengthen the school program? Arlington has a justly deserved reputation as a fine school system. Its schools have served as “ Lighthouse’’ schools for the state and nation. It is important that we maintain this leadership position. Today in technology, in business, in national defense, in industry, one must run hard just to keep up-to-date. To lead, one must do more than run hard. Education has the same problem. Maintaining the status quo would soon leave us far behind. We need to look constantly for improvements. L e t t e r s to t h e E d i t o r The REPORTER invites letters.

During the past several years a small number of AEA members have provided emergency blood service when it was needed by a member or his family. This will no longer be possible under the new plan approved by the Board of Directors. Attempts were made in years past to establish an AEA Blood Bank under the Red Cross. In order to maintain a bank with the Red Cross, a minimum of 200 pints must be kept on deposit at all times. Since AEA members were unable to meet this balance, the AEA has not had a blood bank. Under the plan of the Metropolitan Washington Blood Service Plan it will now be possible to have blood protection for those AEA members who wish to participate. Unlike the Red Cross Plan, the new plan provides for a walking blood bank. Blood is kept by donors until it is needed. By signing a pledge, an AEA member will provide protection for himself and his dependents. Only one-third of the membership will be called upon to donate blood during a given year. Never theless, protection is provided for all those who have signed pledges. If a member who signs a pledge cannot donate blood when it is called for, another member will be asked to donate in his name. We urge you to become a member of the new AEA Blood Bank. Blood can only be supplied to those AEA members who sign pledges now. Remember, the blood you pledge today may be needed at some future time by you and your loved ones.

Under the sponsorship of the N E A and in cooperation with the United States Agency for International Development and the Sierra Leone Ministry of Education, she worked with a team of twenty American classroom teachers who con­ ducted teacher training work­ shops for approximately 300 elementary teachers in the West African country. The Teach Corps ofthe NEA, created to provide new educa­ tional force in international relations, utilizes the services of experienced American teachers who volunteer their services during the summer months to work professionally with teachers in foreign lands to their mutual enrichment. American materials and ideas on curricula and methodology were introduced and demon­ strated during the five-week course. The teachers of Sierra Leone, who participated in the Vacation School were enthusi­ astic and eager. Their serious ap­ proach showed recognition of the importance of their role in shaping the destiny of this newly independent nation. Classrooms buzzed with activity as new ideas were tried and teaching aids were constructed in the many phases of the program. Laughter and singing interspersed serious discussions in which teachers of two cul­ tures adapted their thinking to one another in order to better guide children, citizens of to­ morrow’ sworld. There was excitement in being a part of a program de­ scribed by our Ambassador i n Sierra Leone, as being true and useful American aid. Amer­ ican participants in this vaca­ tion experience returned to their classrooms in a l sections of the l U.S. richer in understanding problems of emerging nations as well as increased pride in their profession. Q u e s tio n s (Continuedfrom Page 1) our obligation does not stop with the top one third of the class. We had four high schools in Arlington, have closed one and now have three overcrowded high schools. Perhaps the expansion of the high school that was discontinued would would have been a more prac­ t c l solution of the problem. I ia t might not be too late to rectify thiserror. There i some evidence of s poor utilization of the teacher’ s specialties. A teacher whose specialty i history should not s be teaching language and vice versa.

Through these two means, I would encourage and support the emphasis being placed by the school board on strengthing the school program for the mid­ dle group of children, neither gifted or handicapped, who constitute the large majority of our school population. I am particularly interested in the program for the Prevention of Learning Difficulties. This pro­ gram i intended to reduce the s waste in human potential which occurs when students f i to al learn to read or to develop s i l and attitudes essential to kls progress in school and full participation in modern l f . ie Many of these students conse­ quently become unproductive, disinterested and frequently drop out of school. I am interested in the Cur­ riculum Improvement Program that i designed to secure for s Arlington the best of materials and to make changes in curricu­ lum offerings based on research and the community’desire for s enriched and more effective programs. Finally, I believe that con­ tinued effort must be expended on the manner and way in which we reward our teachers. Our salary scale must reflect the professional performance we expect from our teachers i we f are to retain and improve the high quality level of instruction that exists in our system today.” E d u c a tio n D ig e sts (Continuedfrom Page 2) Tanyzer of Hofstra University have prepared the i/t/a ( n t a Iiil Teaching Alphabet) readers, workbooks and manuals. The favorable results of the program as observed by Nancy Larrick, former president of the International Reading As­ sociation include: significant differences in reading levels between i/t/a groups and those taught by the standard alphabet; spectacular achievements in creative writing; and oppor­ tunity to read more interesting and diversified material. After eight month’ instruction 50.7 s per cent of the i/t/a group read on second grade level as opposed to 6.1 per cent of the standard alphabet; 24 per cent were reading on third grade level as opposed to 0 per cent; 14 per cent on f r t grade level is opposed to 74.4 per cent taught by standard alphabet; while only 11.3 per cent i/t/a were on a primer le e , contrasted with vl 19.5 per cent standard. Because the children are taught to form letters and symbols from the start and encouraged to write words, sentences and paragraphs, they were able to express themselves more freely so that many were writing nine and ten-word sen­ tences quickly and eagerly.

Worship Services were of­ fered to the group on Sunday morning beginning at 7:30. Breakfast was followed by the fourth General Session at 10 o’ clock. During this session, summations of the workshop groups preceded a report from Bob Richards, executive secre­ tary of the Teachers Associa­ tion of Baltimore County who acted as evaluator of the total program. Each member then offered his own written evalua­ tion of the Institute. After another famous Hilltop House meal, the group was free to return home. 66 members of the Executive Committee, however, met again at one, and remained in session until four.

Non-favorable aspects of the program included the observa­ tion that other subjects were being neglected for reading and that the quiet conducive to con­ centrated learning of the read­ ing stifled the child’ normal s need to express himself.

American Education Week, from Nov. 8 to 14, provides an opportunity for the Associa­ tion to assume a leading role in recognizing education as a primary bulwark of a democ­ racy in a world of conflicting ideologies.

One factor is the salary fig ure itself, and the other is the number of years one must teach to attain that figure. All jurisdictions studied listed a particular number of steps, but since varying credit was allowed for outside experience, no correlation existed between years of experience and number of steps.

As is any projection, they are based on assumptions, and there fore no absolute validity is claimed for them. In Arling ton County, however, we have a salary schedule that is projected to the school year 1971-72. At that time, pre sumably, the maximum salary attainable with a Master’ s degree w ill be $12,000. In comparing this figure with the salaries of other jurisdictions, one cannot operate in a vacuum, and therefore some sort of projection is necessary. The following figures were obtained to the nearest ten dol lars by finding the average rate of increase from 1959-60 to 1964-65, and assuming that the same rate of increase would continue from 1964-65 to 1971-72.

In order to take advantage of this substantial saving of association funds, the budgeted item of $250 was overspent by $372 with approval of the officers in June. Actually the entire budget for insurance and bonding of $240 was unspent from last year's budget since we delayed payment on this item until we could properly assess the needs for a comprehensive program. When .next year's budget is formulated, this item of insurance and bonding will consolidate these expenditures and set up a running account to take advantage of the three year savings without affecting any one year's budget drastically. �ARLINGTON EDUCATION ASSOCIATION Arlington, Virginia MEMORANDUM AEA # 60 October 6, 1964 TO: Board of Directors FROM: Robert U.

Urge legislative action that will bring about a proper selection of Virginia's State Superintendent of Public Instruction by the State Board of Education.

Bogen, Executive Secretary SUBJECT: Tabulation of AEM Questionnaire Last spring at the request of the AEA Board of Directors, a question­ naire was distributed to secure information and opinions from members. The results were to be used to guide officers and committee chairmen-in” planning their work this year. As evaluated by comments and constructive criticism, the questionnaire was felt to be too long and too detailed. Despite this handicap 928 ques­ tionnaires were returned. Many came in with a limited number of questions answered. The reason for this, as stated on several, was the fact that the teacher had not been in the system long enough to give a valid response to certain items. Considering the length of the questionnaire and the difficulty involved in completing it, the total response on various questions was good. Varia­ tions in the total number of responses appear in the results since questions were skipped for reasons known only to the individuals responding. One ex­ ample was pointed out above. Another serious handicap was our request for the name of the teacher on the first page despite our assurance of confidential treatment. Our next questionnaire of this type should be anonymous for a higher return totally and also on certain "touchy" questions. All in all, the results should help us considerably in developing this year's program. Please express our thanks to everyone in your building who cooperated with us by turning in a questionnaire. We want to thank all those who helped in the massive job of tabulating and compiling the results over several months. .. We are sending several copies for placing in the teachers' rooms. If any AEA members desire additional copies, we will run extra sets at a later date. Bring such requests to the next Board meeting an October 22. �ARLINGTON EDUCATION ASSOCIATION Arlington, Virginia RESPONSES TO SALARY COMMITTEE QUESTIONNAIRE QUESTION: Do you prefer salary payments in 10 months?

Legislative - There was discussion about the NEA resolution on desegregation in state and local associations and the study recommended by the VEA Board of Direc­ tors on the matter of opening VEA membership to all members of local associations. The VEA Board paints out this would involve rescinding the 1955 resolution limiting membership procedures to past traditions of VEA.

District H - The District H dinner will be held at 5:30 on October 28 at the John Marshall Hotel, Colony Room. �EXECUTIUE COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES (cant.) - 2 - October 8, 1964 The annual District H meeting will be at Kenmore at 8:00 p.m. an October 21. nr. Franklin Cain, Field Representative .of UEA, will attend. 3. Citizenship - Candidates' responses to AEA questionnaire will be published in a special edition of the REPORTER. UEA election return project referred to Rose Holton, chairman of the AEA Citizenship Committee, for decision. Firs. Holton was empowered to proceed on this project provided that it seemed advisable. 4. Credentials - Firs. Tarantola reported that her committee has studied the AEA bylaws and AEA policies now in existence. She painted out that AD Hoc committee chairmen are not eligible for automatic nomination to attend the UEA convention as are standing committee chairmen. Ad Hoc chairmen can still be nominated by their own faculties. The committee has prepared the PR&R ballot and submitted it to the AEA office for duplication and distribution. The Credentials Committee suggested personal contact with absentees from the Board of Directors meetings (i.e., at least a call to those who do not attend). Firs. Algor agreed to appoint an advisory committee from the Board of Directors to study ways of improving attendance at Board meetings. It was recommended that each Board of Directors member bring a person from his school to each meeting. 5. Salary - Fir. Wynn reported the BA-F1A transfer plan was discussed with Fir. Reid. It was not taken up at the last school board meeting by the executive secretary. However, the matter was discussed by the School Board and recommendations from the school administration will be forthcoming by the time Dr. Laszlo Ecker-Racz returns from his Asian trip. AEA will continue to work with the school administration on this problem. Fir. Wynn painted out the need for information regarding teacher placement on the current salary scale for a cost analysis by AEA. The executive secretary re­ ported past, present and future efforts to get this information. Apparently, the handling Df such information has been transferred to the data processing office from the personnel office. This has produced some delay in securing the informa­ tion. Other community organizations would also like to secure the same information. Fir. Wynn feels that after all the talk about improved communications more needs to be done to acquire basic data more efficiently for use in pre-budget work. Fir. Cornacchione expressed his feeling that Fir. Wynn has a legitimate point. 6. Social - Fliss Hay requested that those who cannot come to executive committee meetings please notify her in advance. This will avoid preparing too much food for the executive committee dinner. The meeting was adjourned at 10:05 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Flary Collins Recording Secretary � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
