Supreme Court Returns to Race Issue

ABC News

What's more important — making sure students can attend good schools, or making sure schools are diverse? It's a tough question, and one that the Supreme Court will have to tackle soon. The court is expected to issue major affirmative action rulings this week, deciding whether local school districts can consider race in order to keep classrooms diverse.

Bible Curriculum Dispute Heats Up in Texas Town

Wall Street Journal

Lori White thinks high school students should study a variety of religions, including Christianity. But the Bible curriculum used in Odessa, Texas, and a growing number of other schools, she says, is aimed at instilling faith, not knowledge. "It's a curriculum that proselytizes," says Ms. White, whose son graduated from Odessa's Permian High School last year.

House Dems Look to Cut Federal Funding for Abstinence Education

FoxNews.com

WASHINGTON — Federal funding for abstinence education will likely fall considerably this year as Democratic leaders said Wednesday they will let a $50 million grant program expire on June 30. The program, known as Title V, has not proven to be effective, said Rep. John Dingell, chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. Dingell's committee has jurisdiction over Title V funding. With a budget deficit and a war, he said the decision to eliminate funding was not a difficult one. "Abstinence-only seems to be a colossal failure," Dingell said.

Va. Tech Students Return to Campus

Time

(BLACKSBURG, Va.) — Still grieving and increasingly wary of the media spotlight, Virginia Tech students returned to their beleaguered campus Sunday, preparing to salvage the final weeks of a semester eclipsed by violence. The scene on campus resembled move-in day in late summer, with parents helping their children carry suitcases into dormitories. There were tears and hugs goodbye. But instead of excitement for the year ahead, there was simply determination to endure and regroup in the fall.

Threats Rattle Schools in 10 States

Associated Press

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - Campus threats forced lock-downs and evacuations at universities, high schools and middle schools in at least 10 states on Tuesday, a day after a Virginia Tech student's shooting rampage killed 33 people. Threats in Louisiana, Montana and Washington state directly mentioned the massacre in Virginia, while others were reports of suspicious activity in Texas, Arizona, Oklahoma, Tennessee, North Dakota, South Dakota and Michigan. In Louisiana, parents picked up hundreds of students from Bogalusa's high school and middle school amid reports that a man had been arrested Tuesday morning for threatening a mass killing in a note that alluded to the murders at Virginia Tech.

Shooter showed 'big warning signs,' students say

CNN.com

BLACKSBURG, Virginia (CNN) -- Cho Seung-Hui exhibited warning signs long before his deadly shooting spree on the Virginia Tech campus, fellow students and professors said. As disturbing details emerged about the resident alien from South Korea, students gathered by the thousands in the heart of their campus Tuesday night for a candlelight vigil. Meanwhile, one professor recalled being so concerned about Cho's anger that she took him out of another instructor's creative writing class and taught him one-on-one. The former chairwoman of Virginia Tech's English department, Lucinda Roy, said the anger Cho expressed in the fall 2005 course was palpable if not explicit.

Study: Abstinence Classes Failing

CBS News

(AP) Students who took part in sexual abstinence programs were just as likely to have sex as those who did not, according to a study ordered by Congress. Also, those who attended one of the four abstinence classes that were reviewed reported having similar numbers of sexual partners as those who did not attend the classes. And they first had sex at about the same age as other students — 14.9 years, according to Mathematica Policy Research Inc.

Cuomo: School Loan Corruption Widespread

ABC News

ALBANY, N.Y. Apr 10, 2007 (AP)— Cozy arrangements between colleges and the companies that lend their students billions of dollars are far more widespread than anticipated, New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo told The Associated Press Tuesday, just as two more college financial aid officers were suspended amid a probe into the $85 billion industry. Cuomo would not divulge where the burgeoning investigation is headed next, including whether more subpoenas are on the way. But he said the investigation could lead to criminal charges against high-ranking officials at both lending companies and universities.

Battle Grows Over Renewing Landmark Education Law

When President Bush and Democratic leaders put together the bipartisan coalition behind the federal No Child Left Behind Act, they managed to sidestep, override or flat out ignore decades of sentiment that education is fundamentally a prerogative of state and local government.

School Aid Fight Erupts in Albany as Budget Passes

New York Times

ALBANY, April 1 — Lawmakers finished passing an estimated $120.9 billion budget Sunday morning that they had not had time to read and had barely debated. But almost immediately after the final vote, the governor’s staff and the Legislature began to dispute what was written in the most contentious portion of the budget — education — underscoring the secretive nature of the negotiations that led to thousands of pages of legislation. Though New York City will receive more money for schools, the final product left questions about how substantially its share of state education aid had grown and how far the city would have to go in reducing class sizes. And while school districts across the state will receive more money, sometimes much more, Westchester legislators were left wondering whether Long Island had made off with some of their county’s rightful share. Certainly, there were oddities in the fine print. More than half of nearly $21 million in new aid for special education went to Long Island, less an indication of a surge in students with disabilities than of a political deal the governor made to get Senate Republicans to approve more school money for New York City. Similarly, about $70 million of nearly $100 million in new education aid for districts with high taxes went to Long Island. But only about $1.2 million went to Westchester, which has some of the highest school property tax rates.

Newt Gingrich Decries 'Ghetto' Nature of Bilingual Education

Fox News

WASHINGTON — Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich equated bilingual education Saturday with "the language of living in a ghetto" and mocked requirements that ballots be printed in multiple languages. "The government should quit mandating that various documents be printed in any one of 700 languages depending on who randomly shows up" to vote, said Gingrich, who is considering seeking the Republican presidential nomination in 2008. He made the comments in a speech to the National Federation of Republican Women. "The American people believe English should be the official language of the government. ... We should replace bilingual education with immersion in English so people learn the common language of the country and they learn the language of prosperity, not the language of living in a ghetto," Gingrich said to cheers from the crowd of more than 100.

Parents Protest New Hampshire High School's 'Sex' Newspaper

Fox News

HAMPTON, N.H. — Some parents are protesting the "sex" edition of the student newspaper at Winnacunnet High School. Several said they were especially offended by a photograph of two women kissing under the headline, "Why men love women who love women," a quiz question about anal sex, and an interview with an unnamed custodian who said he had found a vibrator in the girls' shower. "Those articles offended me personally as a parent," said Venus Merrill, a school board member. "It's not something you want to read with your 10-year-old and it's not something that should be going home." Principal Randy Zito said the Winnachronicle had crossed the line of responsible reporting and that he had dealt with the problem privately. He also said he had pulled copies of the paper that normally would have been sent to middle schools in the cooperative school district.
