Abstract | This report presents statements, letters and supplementary material submitted in favor of a bill renewing funding for Chapter 1 of the Education Consolidation and Improvement Act. Testimony describes how successful the program has been and suggests how the bill can be changed and the Chapter 1 program improved. Among suggestions made are the following: (1) There should be substantial increases in research to discover what works in helping disadvantaged students. (2) Teacher professional development and minority teacher recruitment must be stimulated. (3) More schools must be eligible for school-wide projects. (4) Cap allowable carryover of funds should be 15% instead of 10%. (5) School districts should be allowed to make individual exceptions, based on the districts' assessment of the student, to the two-year limit on services to those who are needy but no longer most needy. (6) School board members should be included on regulators review panels. (7) The measures of low-income status which should be used should be specified. (PS) |
