No Child Left Behind Act has serious implications for teachers' aides
The education reform act mandates that teachers' aides have 60 college
credits or have passed a test, requirements some schools say could make
filling the positions difficult.  The Philadelphia Inquirer (9/13)

Engaging the Public in Its Schools
Public engagement is a willingness on the part of citizens to invest not
only the financial resources but also the time and energy necessary to
support a system of quality public schools that are accessible to all
children. Public engagement is different from parental engagement in that it
is motivated by a commitment to secure a quality education for all children
rather than for one's own children only. ASCD Infobrief
