The purpose of this study was to document the history of the development of the Manassas Park City School system. This study utilized historical research methods to preserve information that would otherwise be lost.
This was a study of local school history. It looked at how and why the school division began and how it has changed over time. It provides an understanding of how the school division evolved into its present state. This study examined the political, social and economic history of Manassas Park City Schools and the forces which influenced and shaped the school division. The study concentrated on political leaders, the residents who lived and worked in the city, and the financial difficulties experienced by the school division.
This study relied on historical research methods to document the history of the school division. Data for the study came from both primary and secondary source materials. Sources included letters, notebooks, memoranda, official papers and documents, reports, official minutes, newspaper articles, letters to the editor and editorials, and pamphlets. A major source for the study was interviews of the key individuals who had first hand information worth preserving.Ed. D.

Full textAbstract:
Traditional educational reform efforts have relied on standardized testing as the primary indicator of student achievement. Current research is broadening the scope as the impact of shaping positive school climates to support the needs of students is examined (Reynolds, 2016). Positive behavior interventions and supports (PBIS) is an evidence-based system of school-wide reinforcement that provides the groundwork for supportive school climates. The purpose of this study was to determine elements of PBIS programs that facilitated positive school climates.
Data collection strategies included focus individual interviews, observation, and document analysis. Triangulation was used to analyze the data. Three iterations were used to develop a process for understanding the elements that positively impact school climates. The first iteration categorized data by actions utilized by stakeholders. The second iteration grouped the actions by the school leader’s impact on school policy in relation to positive school climate. In this iteration, categories were combined from the first iteration based upon their impact on school climate. The third iteration established the role that key stakeholders must attain in order to establish a solid foundation for a positive school climate.
The results revealed that in order for a school to maintain a positive school climate, key stakeholders to include the administrator, PBIS coach, community, students and teachers, must work in concert. Study participants identified facilitating teaching and learning expectations through role playing, shaping and maintaining a safe environment and establishing productive relationships as critical elements needed to shape a positive school climate. This was achieved by solidifying consistent rituals and routines grounded in the distinct needs of each site. The consensus across all three sites acknowledges the roles of the PBIS coaches and the building level administrator. As the PBIS coach and the building administrators worked together, they assumed the lead as PBIS work is facilitated, stakeholder support was strengthened. collaborative partnerships were formed to embrace a common vision and common goals

Full textAbstract:
While the knowledge of disrepair in inner-city schools is fairly common, the impact that school facilities are having on students and faculty is not as widely known. More recently, the closing of inner city schools has greatly increased across the United States; Reduction in public school enrollment from 2006-2013: Detroit -63%, Cleveland -32%, Indianapolis -27%, D.C. -23%, L.A. -23%,etc. (Journey For Justice Alliance,2014).
Due to budget cuts, threat of school closings from poor facility conditions, large class size, and pressure to raise test scores, inner city schools struggle to keep teachers (Journey For Justice Alliance,2014). Poor teacher retention along with a lack in care for educational facilities has created a toxic environment for inner-city students.
Although there are many reasons that inner-city schools suffer, negativity within school culture seems to be a common denominator within many of these problems. With larger population percentages of minority, economically disadvantaged and disabled students, difficulties arise in communicating student-to-student and teacher-to-student (Bellwether Education Partner, 2016). The question becomes, how does one design a space to provide comfort, safety and communication in order to foster healthy relationships?
This research will inform the design of a middle school that focuses on community and communication. The goal will be to design a school where flexibility and team work is made easier through furniture and layout solutions in order to foster growth and respect for students and teachers.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the City Public Schools" Leadership Academy has met its primary goal of preparing public school administrators to serve the school division. This study is built on research that reveals that there are a number of principal preparation programs available for future school leaders that do not adequately prepare the applicants for leadership roles. Collaborative partnerships between school divisions and colleges and universities are being formed in order to prepare public school leaders for the administrative demands of today's public schools, challenged by the mandates of the No Child Left Behind legislation. In particular, school divisions are forming grow-your-own leadership academies in order to meet the need for filling positions that are being vacated by retiring administrators. This study utilizes mixed-methodologies comprised of quantitative and qualitative data. Eleven completers of the City Public Schools" Leadership Academy who obtained administrative positions in the division during the 2004-2006 school years were a part of the study. In addition, their supervisors participated in the study.
The research highlights, in quantitative data, the survey responses of ten novice administrators who were completers of the City Public Schools" Leadership Academy. Seminars that the novice administrators experienced were based on the six Interstate School Leaders Licensure Consortium (ISLLC) standards. Thus, the survey and interview questions were adapted from the ISLLC standards. Adding richness to the study is the data that was generated in the form of in-depth interviews with the eight principals and five supervisors of the novice administrators. Findings revealed that the novice administrators had an overall perception that the City Public Schools" Leadership Academy prepared them to be school leaders. Although the supervisors felt, that the novice administrators were prepared, there were a few areas where they felt the program was in need of improvement. Additional findings gave school leaders a basis from which to make programmatic decisions that should result in a more effective leadership training program.Ph. D.

Marion, Veronica D. "Improving Parental Involvement in an Inner-City Elementary School." ScholarWorks, 2017. https://scholarworks.waldenu.edu/dissertations/4652.
Full textAbstract:
A pattern of low parental involvement exists at in an inner-city school in the northeast region of the United States, where 90% of the students are students of color and fewer than 10% of parents attend school-based activities. Low parental involvement at the local school may lead to decreased student achievement and limited access to needed resources and information. A qualitative case study design was used to explore the problem. Epstein's typology, which includes the traditional definition of parental involvement and acknowledges the parents' role in the home, provided the conceptual framework for the study. Research questions focused on perceived challenges that prevent parent participation, specific types of parental involvement strategies that are most effective when working with inner-city families, and potential solutions to the problems. Data collection included reviewing reports and conducting individual interviews with 5 elementary school parents, 5 teachers, and the principal at the research site. Inductive data analysis included organizing and categorizing data to develop themes related to the problem and perceived solutions. Findings revealed ineffective home-school communication, language differences, and a lack of shared meaning regarding parental involvement between parents and teachers. Identification of these challenges led to development of a 3-day professional learning series for parents, teachers, and administrators that focused on benefits of parental involvement. Implementation of the program may help to facilitate building of school-family community partnerships to empower parents to support their children's learning at home and at school.

CONSELHO NACIONAL DE DESENVOLVIMENTO CIENTÍFICO E TECNOLÓGICOA presente pesquisa objetivou estudar o ensino médio (EM) em duas áreas do município do Rio de Janeiro através da relação de jovens e gestores de escolas frente às questões das oportunidades educacionais do ensino médio. A pesquisa parte do conceito de Geografia de Oportunidades (Galster e Killen, 1995) para investigar os aspectos objetivos (oferta de recursos educacionais) e subjetivos (valores, expectativas e aspirações) das oportunidades educacionais. Inicialmente a geografia objetiva das escolas de EM da cidade do Rio de Janeiro foi analisada com bases nos dados do Censo Escolar 2005, e foram identificadas duas regiões próximas às favelas caracterizadas simultaneamente por desigualdades entre oferta e demanda e pela proximidade com importantes centros comerciais. Neste sentido, foi selecionado um conjunto de escolas para ser realizado o trabalho de campo. A metodologia envolveu visitas às escolas, observações, entrevistas informais e semiestruturadas e aplicação de questionários. Os resultados indicam que a geografia objetiva das oportunidades não pode ser tomada como inerte, pois sobre ela incidem forças do campo como determinações políticas e sociais capazes de criar novas dinâmicas que também interferem na (r)elaboração da geografia subjetiva das oportunidades entre os indivíduos.
The current research aimed to study High School in two areas of Rio de Janeiro city through the relationship of youth and schoolmasters facing the issue of educational oportunities of High School. The research departs from the concept of Geography of Opportunity (Galster e Killen, 1995) to investigate the objective (offer of educational resources) e subjective aspects (values, expectations e aspirations) of educational opportunities. Firstly, the Geography of Opportunity of the schools of High School of Rio de Janeiro city was analyzed having as basys the data from Censo Escolar 2005, in which were identified two areas near slums marked simultaneously by relative inequality between supply and demand as well as by the proximity to major shopping centers. In this sense, a number of schools was selected so that a fied work could be carried out. The methodology involved visits to schools, observations, informal and semi-structured interviews, and the application of questionnaires. The results indicate that the geography of objective of opportunity can not be taken as inert, because on which focuses force fields as political and social determinations that are able to create new dynamics that as well interfere in the development of the subjective geography of opportunity among individuals.

Full textAbstract:
U.S. and world communities face the challenges of understanding how children grieve and of giving them sufficient social and educational support. Inner-city minority adolescents have not been represented well in the bereavement and attachment literature. The purpose of the quantitative study was to use the attachment theory to understand the impact of parental bereavement on these adolescents. Data were collected using the Adult Attachment Interview (AAI), the Piers-Harris Children's Self- Concept Scale (2nd ed.), and school records. MANOVAs were used to analyze the influence of attachment organization, bereavement status, and gender on self-concept and academic and behavioral functioning in school. Results indicated that securely attached adolescents functioned better across all 3 variables than did insecure and unresolved/disorganized adolescents. There were no differences in functioning in the bereaved group according to attachment organization. Results according to gender indicated that although the female participants experienced more academic success and had fewer behavioral difficulties in school, their self-concept was more negative than was that of their male counterparts. There were no differences in functioning in the bereaved group according to gender, but compared to the entire sample, the bereaved females no longer functioned better than males, academically or behaviorally, and there were no longer differences in self-concept. Possible positive social changes from these findings include improvements in school-related student support such as promoting the use of the AAI, linking educational and clinical environments, and assisting schools in developing safe-base classroom environments that could better meet students' needs according to their attachment organization and bereavement status.

Silander, Megan Reilly. "School Closure in New York City." Thesis, 2012. https://doi.org/10.7916/D8PZ5GXP.
Full textAbstract:
School districts and states have increasingly abandoned traditional school reform efforts in favor of simply closing low-performing schools. This movement reflects growing frustration among policymakers with the disappointing effects of previous school improvement policies, and the view that some schools may simply lack the capacity to undertake meaningful improvements. This paper focuses on arguably the most aggressive school closure policies in the nation--those in New York City. Over the past decade, New York City has closed over 100 schools. Using a longitudinal database of students and schools, I explore the implementation and effects of closure and reconstitution of middle schools in New York City, and assess the links between school closure and student academic development and behavior. My descriptive findings indicate that schools selected for closure have significantly lower school-average state test score exams and lower attendance rates compared to other middle schools for several years prior to closure, and that students who attend these schools are almost exclusively Hispanic and Black, more likely to come from low-income families, and more mobile than other middle school students in the district. I also find that students enter these middle schools already at a significant academic disadvantage. I examine characteristics of the reconstituted schools that replace the closed schools, and find that in terms of demographics, reconstituted schools enroll students similar to those served by the closed schools that they replaced. However, the reconstituted schools serve higher performing students with fewer absences and tardies in the year prior to enrolling in middle school. To assess the impact of school closure on student academic outcomes, I use propensity-score matching within a difference-in-differences framework. I find a small, positive effect of school closure on student test scores and rates of absences. As a robustness check, I conduct a second set of analyses using student fixed-effects models that produced similar results: students learn slightly less at chronically underperforming schools, compared to what would have happened had they attended an alternate school. School closure appears to be a somewhat effective in improving student academic outcomes. It is not clear, however, whether the policy is efficient given the small effects and the considerable disruption associated with the policy. Future research should examine the fiscal costs associated with closure, compared to costs of other policies with similar effects.

Full textAbstract:
Objective: Previous studies have explored impacts of school gardening on students and detailed broad components needed for successful gardens, but little is known about how gardens are maintained, connected academically, valued, and sustained over time. The purpose of this observational study is to explore how school gardens become institutionalized and create an implementation framework that can be used to establish gardens that are well integrated into curriculum and culture.
Study Design, Setting, Participants, Intervention: A stratified, purposeful sample of school gardeners at 21 Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Bronx schools completed a survey, semi-structured interviews, and concept mapping exercises during the 2013-2014 school year. Additional data collected were student observations, garden images, and related documents.
Outcome Measures and Analysis: The survey was analyzed using descriptive statistics. Interviews, photos, observations and documents were qualitatively analyzed through thematic coding, pattern matching, explanation building, and cross-case synthesis. Concept mapping exercises was analyzed quantitatively by entering participants’ sorted statements into a similarity matrix to conduct multi-dimensional scaling and hierarchical cluster analysis and qualitatively by thematic coding.
Results: Survey, interview and observation data explicated how school gardeners used implementation strategies to overcome barriers, create new learning opportunities for students, and facilitate permeation of gardening into the school culture. The quantitative concept mapping analysis resulted in four school garden domains (resources and support, physical garden, student experience, and school community) and 19 domain components. Qualitative analysis of sorted statements and interviews elucidated relationships between each domain’s components and also the domains to each other. An integration of all data produced a rich description, supplemented with images, of each school garden’s unique and varied characteristics, activities and operation. A synthesis of these analyses produced the School Garden Integration Framework (SGIF), which visually depicts how and when to implement each domain and all components to maximize garden integration. Additionally, a scaled tool (Scale) was created to capture and rate varying degrees of domain and component integration.
Conclusion and Implications: The SGIF, Scale, and implementation strategies that emerged from this study can be used by schools or policymakers to strengthen existing or establish new well-integrated school gardening programs.

Abstract The goal of this research is to conduct a survey on the academic evaluation enacted in Taipei municipal elementary schools and on the reliability of the associated Academic Evaluation Standards. Moreover, this research is also made for observing the difference of how the interviewees from the evaluated school understanding the Standards. According to the results, this research will propose a modified Taipei municipal elementary school evaluation standard and make conclusions with concrete suggestions for the reference of the Taipei educational ministry and elementary schools in regards of future conduction of academic evaluations. In order to achieve the goal mentioned above, this research is conducted in two ways: references analysis and questionnaire survey. First, by analyzing related theories and cases from documents found in references in and out of the country, the origin and the essence of the academic evaluation is discussed and the current situation of the evaluation enacted in Taipei city is presented. In addition, with reference of the data and theory found, questionnaires for “the reliability of Academic Evaluation indicators for Taipei municipal elementary schools” and “evaluation of the matching similarity of Academic Evaluation indicators for Taipei municipal elementary schools” are generated as tools for obtaining opinions about the Evaluation from faculty and parents involved. According to the conclusion, the research makes concrete suggestions. The first questionnaire was conducted on a sample of faculty and parents of 110 elementary schools taking the evaluation in Taipei from school years of 2001, 2002, and 2003. 550 were issued and 281 of them were effective. The second questionnaire was conducted on the sample of 11 people who were familiar with the evaluation standards. The software used for data analysis is SSPS 10.0 for Windows. According to the results of the reference analysis and the questionnaire survey, this research has the following findings: 1. Academic Evaluation is a mechanism of enhancing the educational quality. The main purposes are to establish school data, improve school management quality, and develop special school features. 2. The planning for academic evaluation of the elementary school should include the following issues: evaluation purpose, content, method, standards, use and applications of results. 3. The evaluation standards represents a top concept. Under that concept, key elements such as rules of evaluation indicators or evaluation criterions must be included. 4. Two important concepts included in the practice of other countries to be considered are the design of evaluation benchmark and the orientation of questioning criterions. 5. The academic evaluation for Taipei municipal elementary schools includes the following three parts: self-evaluation, external evaluation and mechanism for improvement. Elementary schools in Taipei have to take part every 4 years by assigning, volunteering, or drawing at random and propose improving plan based on the descriptive report. 6. This research concludes that the academic evaluation standard for Taipei municipal elementary schools is appropriate for use. 7. Faculties on serving for different number of years and different positions who take part hold distinctively diverse opinions about the criterions of the academic evaluations of Taipei municipal elementary schools. On the other hand, faculties teaching different size of classes, and taking part in different school years with different motivations do not. 8. There are 5 dimensions in the evaluation covering 36 criterions which can be integrated into 9 benchmarks as the evaluation standards. Based on the above conclusions, the research comes up with a academic evaluation benchmark for Taipei municipal elementary schools that can be served as a reference for further research on academic evaluations for Taipei city and the country.

Background: Childhood and adolescence are two critical periods for the development of lifelong eating habits. A balanced meal through school lunches helps to improve the dietary intake of students and develop good eating habits. Providing high-quality school lunches has been one of the top public policies in Taiwan. Taichung City is the second most populous city in Taiwan, which has a variety of school lunch providing modes. Over the years, there were many polices for promoting school lunch for the elementary and junior high schools of Taichung City. The 104th academic year is the final stage of the subsidy for all public schools. Objective: To better understand the status of school lunch fee and lunch supply content in the elementary and junior high schools of 104th academic year of Taichung City. It was to explore the supply situation on different school lunch providing modes. Methods: The demographic data of study schools and school lunch fee was collected from website and telephone survey. A retrospective study was conducted through email, line and telephone for the second objective. We obtained the school lunch monthly menu of each school for 2014/10 and 2015/10, respectively (n=143). To analysis menu content that includes organic vegetables, fruits, milk, seafood, fried, sweet soup, processed foods, etc. Furthermore, to analyze the number of nutrition served in three kind of school lunch meals- meatless meals, special meals and normal meals. The analysis of the school lunch content was performed with descriptive statistics, ANOVA, Scheffe, chi-square, Stduent T-test, Mann- Whitney U-test, Pearson correlation etc. Results: The following results have been found: 1. The lunch fee was significantly different on different school lunch providing modes and region variables (all P ＜ 0.001) ; 2. Compared with the lunch kitchen on school groups (including public office camp and public-private partnerships modes) , the out of order meal group had higher probability to do not meet recommendation on fried dishes (all P＜0.001, odds ratio＞1.0). 3.The school lunch milk supply is generally insufficient in all groups. 4. The supply of organic vegetables is unusual.5. There was no statistical difference in cereal-processed food between all school lunch providing modes (P ＞ 0.05) .6. In the elementary schools, the number of servings from meat and alternatives on school lunch content among meatless meal, special meal and normal meal had reached the recommendation. The number of servings from vegetables only had reached the suggestions from Education Bureau, Taichung City Government. In addition, the number of nutrients served for meat and alternatives and vegetables in the school lunch of the 104th school year was provided by the manufacturer. There was no statistical difference between the manufacturer offered data and the menu ingredients analysis (P>0.05). Conclusion: This is the first study to discuss the school lunch fee, school lunch service patterns and exposure factors in Taichung City. Based on our finding, build a lunch kitchen and adopt public office camps or public-private partnerships in elementary and junior high schools promoted quality of school lunch and reduced the financial burden on parent. However, consideration of minority children, the match the nearby lunch kitchen for resource sharing is much more economical. Moreover, the accuracy of the serving volume still requires a lot of manpower input, which is beneficial to the achievement of the ideal supply target.

Junior High School Teachers’ Attitudes Toward School Choice in Taichung City Chin-Sheng Chen Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate junior high school teachers’ attitudes toward school choice and their opinions to the related issues. The sample included 965 teachers of junior high schools in Taichung City. The Questionnaire for Junior High School Teachers’ Attitudes toward School Choice was used to collect data for this study. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, Chi-square test, one-way ANOVA and content analysis. The conclusions were as follows: 1. The teachers disagreed that school choice could promote equity and equality of educational opportunities and maintain teachers'' professional rights. On the other hand, teachers agreed that school choice could increase public schools'' accountability and embody the individual’s liberty. 2. The types of school choice plans that teachers favored in sequence were: offering magnets schools or programs; offering alternative schools or programs, and implementing a more flexible school district that comprised of several schools. 3. The steps of implementing school choice in sequence were: distributing each school''s resources equally, implementing school-based management substantially through heightening school-level autonomy, organizing city-wide or divisional parent information centers to assist parents for decision-making, and enforcing school evaluation regularly. 4. Teachers thought that the feasibility to implement school choice in Taichung City at present was not high. Keywords：School Choice

Low birth rate is a phenomenon in developed countries around the world. Significantly, the births decline will impact to the number of students. The total fertility rate had fallen to 1.265‰ until 2012 in Taiwan. The number of elementary students decreases form 191 million to 137million in 2003 to 2012 and this impacts on education system. Education is the foundation of national development, but the educational resources are limited, while the number of students decrease Authorities must reduce the class size or number of class to maintain the operation of school. In this situation, some schools have unused space and the others have lack of scale efficiency to operating. Now authorities is promoting 12 years basic education, betting more educational resources to enhance the lives of citizens to receive education at the same time, it is necessary to examine whether the investment in 12 years basic education deserve benefits, so that it can avoid the waste of educational resources. The study aims to exploring population of city, the number of elementary students, and teacher-student ratio in school as a starting point, in this aims, selecting the 60 elementary schools in Taichung City as the object of this study. The number of teachers, number of staff, the average area of school per student, class number, the amount of annual accounts are selected as input variables. The number of new students, the number of students in school, the number of graduate students are selected as output variables.

Parental involvement plays a very important role in the development of a child’s formal education. This study explored various management strategies that might serve as guidelines to improve parental involvement in primary schools. The conceptual framework that informed this study was factors that determine school effectiveness as well as Epstein’s theory of overlapping spheres and her typology on parental involvement that served as the theoretical framework. A qualitative research approach was used for this study, as it allowed the researcher to conduct in-depth interviews with six principals in Southern Tshwane primary schools and examined relevant documents to collect data. The research indicates that most schools comprehend the importance of parental involvement, yet lack structured implementation frameworks for parental involvement. The study recommends that schools need to plan, manage and implement a parental involvement programme according to the unique circumstances of the school.Ukubandakanyeka kwabazali kudlala indima ebalulekile kakhulu ekuthuthukiseni imfundo esemthethweni yengane.

"Criminal victimization among inner-city high school students." Tulane University, 1993.
Find full textAbstract:
This study examines victimization through firearms, knives, and other weapons among 1663 high school students in ten inner-city schools across the United States. In accounting for victimization patterns, emphasis is placed on socio-demographic characteristics, exposure to guns outside school, exposure to violence in school, and illegal activities which may place students at a greater risk of being victimized either in school or in transit to and from school. Relying on recent research based on the lifestyle/routine activities approach, the study focuses primarily on the behavioral characteristics (i.e., arrest record, gang membership, drug sales) of the students as contributing factors to victimization. The results strongly support the arguments suggesting that exposure to guns out of school and illegal activities have significant effects on the likelihood of victimization. With regard to the former, the findings indicate that weapons carrying among male relatives and perceived access to guns in the neighborhood increase the risk of victimization net of the influence of other variables. Additionally, the findings show strongest support for the lifestyle/routine activities approach, as indicated by the significant effects of arrest record, gang membership, weapons carrying, and involvement in drug sales on violent victimization net of the influence of additional variables. Criminological and policy implications regarding the major findings of this study are consideredacase@tulane.edu

Colin, Pescina Jorge Ubaldo. "The effect of transit improvements on school choice." Thesis, 2015. https://doi.org/10.7916/D8BR8R70.
Full textAbstract:
The dissertation investigates the effect of the new bus rapid transit lines on school choice at the high school level in Mexico City. Since 1996 all public high schools in the Mexico City metropolitan area have an open enrollment policy based on the result of a common test and the stated preferences of students on what school they wish to attend. I raise four questions: 1) Are students applying to public high schools that are in line with their academic potential? 2) Is the time required to commute to school a determinant factor in the students’ choice of high school? 3) Can improving access to public transit modify the set of schools to which students apply in their senior high school application process? And 4) What effects do the transit improvements have on students’ allocated school? The time difference in the introduction of four new bus rapid transit lines is used as source of variation to mass transit availability. A difference in difference technique is used to compare these groups across time. I find that about one of every five students in Mexico City in the last 12 years was allocated to a school below her academic capability potentially damaging her future performance (under-matching). This is most prevalent among students from low income areas where academic attainment is low. Transit improvements led students living in areas that previously had little access to transit to apply to schools that were farther from home. The greater benefits are for students in the middle and lower part of the academic distribution. Transit improvements decrease the level of under-matching for these students. Students in wealthier areas see the quality of their school peers decrease after transit lines start operations. The same happens for high achievement students from low to middle income areas. I carefully document with maps how transit modified the location of schools to which the students applied and also to which school they were allocated. The findings highlight an equity dimension of transit availability as a mean to access quality education and a fundamental element to exercise school choice.
