Abstract	Partnerships is an Emporia State University program designed to strengthen university relationships with public schools in Kansas. It contains four strategies for offering services needed by public school practitioners: (1) providing leadership, research, and staff development assistance to formal school district consortia in the university's region; (2) sponsoring critical issues updating workshops on new/revised concepts/practices for individual Kansas educators; (3) sponsoring conferences on topics of special interest to both university personnel and state professional associations; and (4) conducting training institutes to prepare school district leaders in curriculum, effective schools, and reading coordination. The program attempts to become a dynamic agent in the total educational community, exercise sensitivity to varying perspectives on educational theory/practice, advocate workable procedures and program models, use effective leadership techniques, and identify and build a network to serve its constituency. Given an appropriate amount of funding and adequate staffing, the Partnerships program can be replicated by any college or university. (LFL)
