RE: Professional Development Plan

Attached please find the new Professional Development Plan, which the Board is required to adopt each year. I would just like to let you know that there have been some changes which are listed below. I will attempt to explain them by category.

• The feeling of the planning team was that the original plan was too ambitious with five goals and 11 objectives, creating a situation that was untenable with tasks too numerous to implement successfully. This plan contains three common goals and five objectives approved through consensus. Plan goals, objectives and strategies for 2002/03 are based on documented data analysis, including prioritized lists, sorting, tallying, charts and graphs to document results.

• There was one implementation plan developed for the three departments. This did not meet the unique needs of the students within each of the department's schools. Each department has its own implementation plan to follow based on its unique needs.

• In evaluating the original plan, implementation focused on New York State Standards. This plan focuses on creating a teaching and learning environment conducive to increasing student achievement through standards implementation using best practices, alignment

04121;6

of standards and classroom assessments, and reinforcement of appropriate social and emotional student behaviors.

• The original plan did not have a system in place to ensure implementation. This plan was developed with a coordinator in place to drive the plan's development and subsequent implementation.

• The original plan does not engage other BOCES services. This plan will utilize the professional development opportunities within the Nassau BOCES organization, such as CIT Professional Development, Videoconferencing and on-line course opportunities, Model Schools, Nassau School Library System, Health and Safety, Arts in Education, Outdoor Education, JASON Project, as well as outside agencies to create a stronger sense of community.

• The strategic needs of each department were different though there were common goals and objectives. The meetings of the teams during the planning for 2002-03 created a greater awareness among the members of each department's services. We hope this will result in further collaborations. For example, the Department of Instructional Programs and Alternative Schools forged a relationship with the Department of Special Education's specialists.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to give me a call.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN ABSTRACT

More call be done to improve educatioll by imprmling the ef!ectil1ene ........ of teacher .... than by any othel' single factor. Effective teachers appear to be effective with studellt,., of all achievement levels regardless of the level of heterogeneity ill their classrooms. (lYright, Hom, QI,d Sallders, 1997)

The Nassau Board of Cooperative Education Services (BOCES) believes that professional development must be ongoing, relevant, grounded in research, and infused with reflection, collaboration, and best practices. No student referred to a nOCES program is singularly referred based on academic failure. Therefore, our professional development plan to improve student achievement takes into account social, emotional, and vocational implications for students as well as curriculum, instruction and assessments pertaining to the New York State Learning Standards. The Nassau BOCES Professional Development Plan (PDP) expands the approaches teachers use to support a positive teaching and learning environment and the methods and materials they use to enhance their teaching skills.

Nassau BOCES includes three programs providing direct instruction to students, Special Education, Instructional Programs and Alternative Schools (IP AS), and Career and Technical Education (CTE). Each program has numerous services dedicated to meeting the needs of their special populations. Student popUlations range from 5-21 years of age. Nassau BOCES serves students whose abilities range from the gifted and talented to students seeking the application aspects of our Career and Technical programs to students with severe emotional and/or physical challenges.

Each school district is required to develop a Professional Development Plan (PDP) according to Section 100.2 of the Regulations of the Commissioner of Education. Requirements include the establishment of a planning team with specific constituency representation, annual review of the plan, and specific regulations related to the plan's contents. A planning team consistent with the requirements was engaged. The team includes the Superintendent's designee, the three Executive directors of the Nassau BOCES programs, one educational administration associate, six teachers, two parents, a higher education representative, and a curriculum specialist. The team reviewed the regulations found on the New York State Education Department web site to ensure compliance and reviewed the original PDP to assess progress and needs.

A system of communication was created to ensure that all members of the planning team be an integral part of the process. Communication was ongoing via telephone calls, face-to-face meetings, and enhanced by technology through GroupWise correspondence. The team met in groups as needed, sometimes in total, at times in ad hoc committees. Approximately 12 meetings took place over a period from May 7 through August 1,2002.

The team resolved to have staff input and to utilize data to drive decisions to be made in regard to professional development. Each program, Special Education, IPAS, and CTE, used quantitative and qualitative data relevant to their individual programs to determine the needs of their student populations. Data were gathered from State asscssments, School Report Cards, focus groups, informal discussions, surveys, and/or questionnaires. In addition, every BOCES school administrator responded to a survcy rC(IUesting a prioritization of the goals and objectives of the original plan; a second survey requesting prioritization of strategies for achieving goals and objectivcs; and a questionnaire rcquesting information on completed activities from 2000-2002.

n~12h9

The next and final steps were to delineate the professional development activities and the monitoring and evaluation processes needed for 2002-2003.

The PDP is the result of great effort on the part of the planning team. The members worked together to create a yearlong plan for professional development that incorporates collaboration as well as individualization.

The contents of the PDP include resources used to determine needs, a needs assessment/data analysis, a list of goals and objectives common to all Nassau BOCES programs, and implementation plans incorporating strategies, activities/tasks, responsibilities, timelines, and evaluation procedures or tools. The implementation plans were designed by each department, Special Education, IP AS, and CTE, to meet the unique needs of their individual student populations.

The plan describes how teachers will be provided with substantial professionsl development opportunities directly related to student learning needs; how teachers will be expected to participate, including a minimum of projected hours each teacher is expected to participate in the given school year; how the plan is aligned with the NYS Learning Standards and Assessments, student needs, and teacher capacities; and how it is articulated across grade levels. The plan ensures that professional development will be continuous and sustained and evaluated for its effectiveness. The impact of professional development on teachers' practices and on student achievement will be measured.

The PDP team developed the plan with a multi-year approach to improve student achievement. The team will review the plan annually and update it to reflect progress, new requirements, and modifications as needed. The PDP team worked tirelessly to create a comprehensive, meaningful document which will steer the professional development activities of the Nassau BOCES in the

t «""'\ coming year.

c. PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES

The district will provide substantial professional development for the 2002-2003 school year. Nassau BOCES departments will conduct professional development activities during Superintendent's Conference Days, other Staff Development opportunities, and mont)1ly faculty meetings. Additional staff development opportunities are described in Section II (Implementation

Plan).

Though many strategies are common to Special Education, Instructional Programs and Alternative Schools (IPAS), and Career and Technical Education (CTE), the activities are unique to each program and are based on results of each program's quantitative and qualitative data

analysis.

For the 2003-2004 PDP, the district will describe how it will provide all newly certified teachers opportunities to maintain such certificate in good standing based upon successful completion of 175 hours of professional development every five years.

D. PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT NEEDSIDATA ANALYSIS na1273 A successful school experience provides students with the tools and skills necessary to make the transition effectively to the next stage of life. For some students enrolled in our Special Education, Instructional Programs and Alternative Schools, and our Career and Technical Education programs, this means going on to college or another educational experience. For others, it means entering the workplace. Outcomes for these students enrolled in all BOCES programs encompass:

~ access to further education when appropriate ~ employment, useful work and activity valued by the community ~ personal autonomy, independence and adult status ~ social intcraction, community participation, leisure and recreation ~ participation in the life of the family

This broader set of outcomes aims to better prepare our students to become productive and independent adults. Therefore, the Nassau BOCES Professional Development Plan focuses on implementing the NYS Learning Standards within the context of meeting the unique needs of our students.

Our professional development is based on the factors that influence our students' abilities to achieve. These include the analysis of student learning that ultimately helps to close the gap between actual student performance and goals for student learning. The N.Y.S. Learning Standards are a critical component in the analysis of student learning needs. Participation in the activities described in our Plan will provide guidance to professional staff regarding how to apply New York State's academic expectations to specific grade level requirements. Professional staff will also learn to identify what student data they can use to refine their instruction over time and across grade levels.

The Professional Development Plan also focuses our attention on professional development strategies for improving the teaching and learning environment for all of our students. Professional staff will gain expertise and be provided support in creating and maintaining a climate conducive to learning. Staff development activities implemented and material resources purchased will reflect methods for teachers to use to improve student behavior and instruction.

Special Education

The Department of Special Education collects student data related to student achievement indicators that are alibrned with annual student IEP goals and objectives. Local district committees on special education detemline which NYS learning standards are appropriate for each student they refer to our center-based and district-based programs. Specifically, these committees review the student's present level of performance with regard to their cognitive, social and emotional needs, abilities and disabilities. We are able to utilize student perfonnance data on state assessments such as the ELA 4 and 8, Math 4 and 8, Social Studies and Science assessments at the elementary and middle school level as well as high school Regents and RCT examinations. Other students are assessed using the New York State Alternate Assessment for Students With Severe Disabilities. Alternate indicators assess the New York State Learning Standards for these students.

The enonl1OUS variation among students with disabilities attending our full-time BOCES program provides a unique challengc in the development of this Plan. For some students, the goals related

6

.' .~

n~~l ~--'74 to a predominantly academic, general education curriculum are not relevant to their life goals. These students, many with significant cognitive impairments, often need a completely individualized curriculum. The New York State Standards for Students with Severe Disabilities guides us for this student population. These alternate standards are challenging, yet potentially achievable, and reflect the full range of knowledge and skills that some students need to live a productive life.

Our administrators and staff engage in ongoing articulation and reflection. These discussions often include professional development needed and/or available to support the teacher in helping students meet IEP goals. Analyses of our quantitative and qualitative data overwhelmingly support the strategies we have selected for the Special Education implementation plan.

Instructional Programs and Alternative Schools (I PAS)

Nassau BOCES runs six alternative programs for rebJUlar high school students in grades 9-12 that provide a change from the conventional high school. They include the Alternative High School Development Service, Cultural Arts Center, the Program of Alternative Comprehensive Education (P.A.C.E.), the Positive Alternative Twilight High School (P.A.T.H.S.), the Teenage Parenting Program (TAP), and the Hospital Drug Tutorial Program.

The professional development goals, objectives, strategies and related activities described in the implementation plan for the Department of Instructional Programs and Alternative schools (I.P.A.S.) were developed in response to a variety of data. These included a survey, developed with input from the department's subject area teacher groups, which was sent to all full and parttime teachers in the alternative schools. This survey sought input about the kinds of staff development that the teachers feel they need to enable them to reach the instructional and developmental goals which they have set for their students.

Other sources of data include student performance results on the Regent's and RCT exams, as well as course grades; discussions at facuIty meetings; teacher observations and assessments by the principals; student attendance; and teacher self-assessments.

Our professional development plan emphasizes continued implementation of activities which incorporate the NYS learning standards in daily instruction and assessments; the use of a variety of instructional and assessment strategies that support students' varied approaches to learning; an intensified focus on supporting teachers in their efforts to maintain a positive emotional and social classroom environment; and the establishment of opportunities for teacher reflection and collaboration. A data analysis of the teacher survey overwhelmingly indicates a need for our professional development to include resources, both human and material, that will enable our teachers to use Special Education methodologies and strategies in the classroom. Data indicates that the number of students displaying behaviors and conditions requiring such skills in their teachers is increasing. Informal interviews also reflect a need for continuing our ongoing focus on study skills.

Professional Development activities for the faculties of these schools will continue to address the academic needs of students. However, the success of these schools also depends on the continued development of strategies to help engage school-resistant students, make them part of the community and enable them to believe in themselves. The planned professional development effort for the coming year also focuses on program growth in the application of these essential strategies.

7

Career and Technical Education (CTE) 0$12"5 Our programs provide high school students who arc interested in specific careers with the knowledge and skills which lead to gainful employment and post-secondary education. The data indicate that our instructors, many of whom are highly specialized in their fields, would benefit from expanding their repertoire of instructional techniques.

The Department of Career and Technical Education reviewed student perfonnance on established benchmarks and engaged in additional data analysis activities. Descriptions of our activities and data analysis results are as follows:

~ An administrative review of student perfonnance in relation to benchmarks indicated that not all programs are meeting benchmarks.

~ Data results from a perception survey completed by Senior students indicated that students felt their CTE program least prepared them to answer questions and give oral reports in class; write essays and reports; understand and use science and math related to their careers.

~ Focus groups were held with teachers at both CTE Centers to ascertain where students were not successful on the mid-year written and perfonnance assessments. Teachers identified those areas where they need professional development in order to improve student achievement on assessments.

~ "Absence Summaries by Teacher and Class" for 2001-2002 indicated poorer attendance in the PM classes than the AM. Possible causes were examined. There are no conclusive answers. CTE will continue to seek ways to increase student attendance.

~ On June 21 s" the entire staff of the CTE Centers met in planning groups to examine critical areas and to report recommendations to the entire faculty on June 24th. These reports will serve as a starting point for 2002-2003 planning committees for the improvement of student achievement

As a result of our analysis of the data described above, our implementation plan will focus on instructional skills that cross content areas such as study skills, test-taking skills, and the use of a variety of research-based instructional methodologies effective with English Language Learners and with students who have special education needs.

Summary of Needs Assessment Findings

a) Special Education, Instructional Programs and Alternative Schools, and Career and Technical Education Programs' principals responded to needs assessment surveys. Results indicated three common goals, five common objectives, some shared strategies and varied activities and tasks in professional development to address student needs, align learning standards and assessments, and ensure articulation.

b) All Nassau BOCES programs will address improvement of student behavior, though in varying degrees and methodologies, to ensure the educational environment is conducive to teaching and leaming to improve student achievement.

c) All Nassau BOCES programs will apply strategies and actions/tasks based on research of best practices to enhance team building and collaboration.

8

n·:"II1r'~h 'f.... /. 'u d) A review of implemented actions/tasks from 2000-2002 indicates that the process of

aligning the NYS learning standards and assessments with curriculum and instruction has been ongoing within each BOCES program.

e) Each program delineates specific actions/tasks in its implementation plan for 2002-2003 to maintain and continue the alignment of NYS learning standards and assessments with curriculum and instruction.

E. lVIULTI-YEAR APPROACH TO IMPROVE STUDENT PERFORMANCE

The PDP is continuous in nature and is reassessed annually to detennine its effectiveness in improving student perfonnance and in its appropriateness to BOCES goals, application of current research-based models, and individual program goals.

Three common goals and five objectives establish the framework for professional development using delivery models such as in-service programs and common planning time, Superintendent's Day conferences, and Staff Development Days.

The plan is based on a review of the original plan which had been implemented during 2000-2002, the prioritized goals, objectives, and strategies for 2002-2003, and a delineation of activities/tasks to be undertaken. The team acknowledges that the plan is dynamic, that there will be ongoing monitoring, review, and modifications as needed.

Nassau BOCES hired a Coordinator of Professional Development. One of the expectations for this position is to direct and support the development and implementation of the PDP. The PDP aims to eliminate those causes within the districts' control for student achievement gaps; focuses on commonalities as well as distinctions between BOCES' programs; and uses data analysis significant to each program's needs to drive educational decisions.

This updated Professional Development Plan will be offered to the school board for approval in the fall of 2002.

F. NEEDS ASSESSMENT SOURCES USED

Among the various departments the appropriate data was used from the list below:

~ School Report Cards ~ Student attendance rates ~ Graduation and drop-out rates ~ Student performance results ~ State benchmarks for student performance ~ Teacher self-assessment ~ Post-Secondary Education and Employment Plan ~ Quarterly IEP Progress On Student Goals ~ Results of NYS Alternate Assessment of Students with Severe Disabilities ~ Community employment opportunities

Mr. Farber's Question on a Legal Notice for Bids by the Long Island School Food Service Directors Association Bid Committee in Newsday

The attached legal notice was faxed to me by Mr. Farber with a request for Steve Goldstein to give the Board details on the bid.

The Board has passed a resolution for our Food Services Dept. to participate in the Long Island School Food Service Directors Association's cooperative bid for many years. It has been at least six years, maybe more. The contracts can only be utilized to produce student lunches. That is why Flo Egan's department is the only Nassau BOCES department that uses it and we do our own food bid for the other departments. The last time the Board passed the resolution for us to participate was in July 2001 for the 2001-02 school year.

As per Flo Egan, she had the documentation to give to us so that we could have the Board pass a resolution to participate during the 2002/03 school year and was preparing to send it to us. Flo was unaware the Long Island School Food Service Directors Association placed the ad before our Board passed a resolution to participate. The Association ran the ad without any authorization from Nassau BOCES. Flo reports that she does need to utilize that bid for the 2002/03 school year and it will be on the September 26 Board agenda for approval.

Flo buys the following items from that bid: meat, dairy, groceries (dry goods), milk, bread, snacks, drinks, and paper goods.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to give me a call.

Dr. Shiveley infonned the Board that Tom Rogcrs suggested that Governor Pataki might be willing to come to the Joseph M.

We are looking at the following dates: October 16, October 17, October 29 or October 30. Mr. Rogers informed Dr. Shiveley that the Governor has been going around giving money to high-tech industries and he would like to tie his visit into Nassau BOCES Barry Tech which is playing a major role in preparing students for fields in technology.

On motion by Mr. Witt, seconded by Mr. Russell and approved with a vote of six members voting yes and three members voting no (Mr. Schultz, Ms. Ross-Srulevich and Ms. Strumeyer), the Board agreed to have Governor Pataki visit at Barry Tech in October.

By Board consensus, the Board agreed to cancel the Work Session on November 14, 2002 because some Board members will be going to the Walnut Street School PTA meeting to discuss the referendum.

August 2, 2002

To: School Board Members and Chief School Administrators

From: Resolutions Committee Chairwoman Delores Ackennan

This is your report of the recommendations of the Resolutions Committee on one proposed bylaw amendment and 21 resolutions, which will be acted upon by the delegates at the New York State School Boards Association's Annual Business Meeting on Saturday, October 26, 2002. No additional bylaw amendments or resolutions can be proposed at this time (Association Bylaw Article 17). A member school board may, however, propose an amendment to any resolution or proposed bylaw amendment printed in this report by mailing the proposed amendment to each member board at least 30 days prior to the Annual Business Meeting. Thus, such mailing would have to occur on or before September 26, 2002.

To facilitate the amendment process, NYSSBA publishes an Amendments and Rebuttals brochure which is mailed to every school board member and superintendent. Amendments to the resolutions and the proposed bylaw amendments, as well as rebuttals received in the Association office by 5:00 p.m. on Friday, September 6 will be included in the booklet. The Amendments and Rebuttals brochure will be mailed shortly thereafter to everyone who receives this report. If a member board wishes to submit an amendment but does not do so by that date, the member board is required to mail the amendment to each member school board on or before September 26, 2002.

Amendments to resolutions printed in the Amendments and Rehuttals brochure and any other amendments mai led to all member boards before September 26 do not have to be submitted in writing at the rostrum of the Annual Business Meeting, but will need to be moved and seconded from the floor to be considered. Any amendments not mailed to the membership by September 26, 2002, either as part of the Amendments and Rehuttals brochure or by a member board, will have to be submitted in writing at the rostrum, moved, seconded and voted upon at the Annual Business Meeting. A majority of those voting is necessary to approve an amendment. Pursuant to Article 17 of the Association's Bylaws, proposed amendments to the bylaws may not be amended on the floor.

Following adoption of the prooosed Order of Business, the resolutions and proposed bylaw amendments will be considered in the order printed in this report. The resolutions and proposed

bylaw amendments have been categorized into three groups: recommended, not recommended and ~ continuing policy. Those resolutions and proposed bylaw amendments which the Resolutions ~ Committee has recommended for adoption will be moved by the Committee Chainnan, no second being needed. Those resolutions not recommended for adoption and the resolution identified as continuing policy will be considered only if they are moved and seconded by voting delegates from

the floor.

NYSSBA's 2002 Position Statements and Bylaws, which was mailed to every school board member and superintendent in April, reflects all currently active Association position statements.

Voting delegates should bring this report and the Amelldmellts alld Rebuttals brochure to the Annual Business Meeting since these will be the working documents used at the meeting. Note that each amendment and resolution has a box in which your delegate can record the position taken by your board on the resolutions, as well as that taken by the delegates at the meeting. Delegates should also bring their copy of the Association's 2002 Position Statemellts and Bylaws.

Remember: The deadline for receipt of amendments/rebuttals to be included in the Amendments and Rebuttals booklet is 5:00 p.m. on Friday, September 6, 2002.

BYLAWS AMENDMENT RECOMMENDED FOR ADOPTION

NOTE: [Bracketed] information represents proposed deletions to existing Bylaws and underlined material represents proposed additions to existing Bylaws.

A. Area Organization

Submitted by the Oppenheim-Ephratah School Board on May 17,2002.

RESOL VED, that Article 3 be amended as follows:

Area 8. Delaware, Fulton, excluding the Oppenheim-Ephratah School District, Montgomery, Otsego, excluding the Richfield Springs Central School District, and Schoharie counties, including the Wells and Lake Pleasant Central School Districts of Hamilton County.

Area 5. Herkimer, Jefferson, Lewis, excluding Harrisville Central School District, Madison, excluding the Cazenovia Central School District and the DeRuyter Central School District, Oneida, and Oswego counties, and including the Richfield Springs School District of Otsego County and the OppenheimEphratah School District of Fulton County.

Rationale

The Oppenheim-Ephratah Central School District is a member of the Herkimer County BOCES. To be consistent with the designated region to which the Herkimer County BOCES component districts are assigned, it is requested that the Oppenheim-Ephratah Central School District be assigned to Area 5.

NOTE FROM THE RESOLUTIONS COMMITTEE: This proposed Bylaw amendment permits the Oppenheim-Ephratah Central School District of Fulton County to move from Area 8 and become part of Area 5. The technical manner in which this proposed Bylaw amendment has been designed is consistent with past practices on the part of other school boards that have sought similar relief .

2 3 4 5 6

1. Increase the Allowable Fund Balance

Submitted by the Newark Valley School Board on May 16, 2002.

1 RESOLVED. that the New York State School Boards Association support 2 changes to applicable laws and regulations to support a 5 percent fund balance carry-over 3 each year.

Rationale

Current fund balances cannot exceed 2 percent. Given the increasing summer expenses schools are experiencing in moving all students to the new standards, the repeatedly late state budgets, the additional cost of deferred STAR payments, the migration of special needs students as well as other unanticipated costs, and the recommendations by accounting firms to support a 10 percent carry-over for municipalities as sound financial management, schools should be allowed to better manage their local finances with an adequate allowable fund-balance.

This resolution rea ffi nns NYSSBA Position Statement number 1 under "Management and Finance" in the "2001 Position Statements and Bylaws" booklet, page 20, which sunset in 2001.

NOTE: This resolution was endorsed by the Union-Endicott School Board on June 10 and the Susquehanna Valley School Board on June 12, 2002.

A Statement in Support of the Resolution from the Resolutions Committee

The Resolutions Committee believes the arguments in support of the resolution are well stated in the rationale.

NOTE FROM THE RESOLUTIONS COMMITTEE: In June the Legislature passed legislation increasing the allowable undesignated fund balance to 4 percent. It is very likely that Governor Pataki will have acted upon the legislation prior to the Business Meeting. In any event, at its meeting prior to the Business Meeting, the Resolutions Committee will review its position on this resolution in light of the outcome of the governor's actions on this issue.

2. Electronic Legal Advertising

Submitted by the Hewlett-Woodmere School Board on May 31. 2002.

RESOLVED. that the New York State School Boards Association seek legislation proVIding that the current and future rl'ljuiremento;; f{)r the "publishing" of legal advertisements pcrmit school districts to meet these requirements by electronic media (e.g. the district's web page) in lieu of the second newspaper publication where more than one ncwspaper puhltcatlon is requircd.

Rationale

Legal advertisement represents a significant cost to local taxpayers in both the preparation and publication of such advertisements. Electronic pUblication would be less costly and would also get the information to interested parties instantly, rather than their having to wait for single dates of publication in weekly newspapers.

Publication of legal advertisements under the current law is specified to be satisfied through two "newspapers" having general circulation in the school district. This represents a limited exposure of the information to the public when contrasted with continuous exposure through electronic media. In some school districts, access to electronic publications via the Internet reaches a significantly larger number of persons than does the circulation of local print media.

The legislation proposed by this resolution would be pernusslve. Electronic pUblication would be an option for districts required to advertise in two newspapers.


The Resolutions Committee believes that arguments in support of the resolution are well stated in the rationale. The committee would point out this resolution gives only those districts that have more that one newspaper in general circulation, and that are required to advertise in two newspapers, the option of using electronic media in addition to printing such legal advertising in at least one newspaper. This will ultimately save school districts taxpayer dollars while still ensuring districts provide proper notification to the general community .

3. PILOT Program Participation

Submitted by the Ossining School Board on May 20, 2002.

1 RESOLVED, that the New York State School Boards Association seek legislation to 2 ensure that any agreement between the Empire State Development Corporation, or other 3 entities of a municipality, and a private corporation, provides that the split of taxes between 4 the school district and other taxing jurisdictions is in the same proportion with the PILOT 5 (payment in lieu of taxes) agreement as if taxes were being paid.

Rationale

There is no proVISIon in law which permits a school district to intercede to protect its interests when the Empire State Development Corporation acts on behalf of a municipality in negotiating a PILOT agreement with a private corporation. Typically. the assessing authority (i.e .• town or county) negotiates the PILOT agreement in conjunction with the Empire State Development Corporation. and on behalf of all of the municipalities. This is unfair in that it is generally going to be the case that the school district is the recipient of the largest share of the corporation's tax payments.


The Resolutions Committee believes the arguments in support of the resolution are well stated in the rationale.

nJ1~75 4. Statewide Response When Budget is Late

Submitted by the Sweet Horne School Board on June 13, 2002.

1 RESOL VED, that the New York State School Boards Association is authorized 2 to develop and help implement a statewide response by districts when the state budget is 3 more than one day late.

Rationale

We need to create incentive for the state to adopt a budget on time each year, as each district is required to do. There is no higher authority to hold the state accountable and we can't continue to wait and hope for elections to change things. We (NYSSBA members) are in a position as one of the largest employers, collectively, in the state to hold the state government responsible to get their budget passed by April I sl each year, the start of the fiscal year. School boards can only maintain local control by not allowing the state to "hold us hostage" each year. We can achieve this only as a group!


The Resolutions Committee believes that arguments in support of the resolution are well stated in the rationale.

NYSSBA's response in the past has included the following reforms: definitive revenue estimates determined in time for a budget plan to be negotiated and enacted on time, a time certain for budget resolutions in each house, public conference committees to debate differences between budget resolutions and the Executive Budget, timely budget adoption and if that fails, the continuation of the current law budget until such time as a new state budget can be negotiated.

This resolution would include these in a consistent and coordinated statewide advocacy approach.

5. Language Referring to Non-Contingent Budget Items

Submitted by the South Huntington School Board on June 17, 2002.

1 RESOLVED, that the New York State School Boards Association support the 2 New York State Association of School Business Officials' (NYSASBO) recommendation 3 that all language referring to non-contingent budget items be removed from law, 4 including those mentioned in Education Law. Article 41. section 2023. and Education 5 Law, Article 53, section 260 I-I (5).

Rationale

Contingent budget language was intended to limit the spending of schools 111

districts where the voters had defeated the budget. The Laws of 19lJ7 imposl'd mandatory spending caps on all contingency budgets, thereby rendering the intent of contingent budget language redundant. Removal of this language would provide enhanced local control and flexibility in what is funded, while the mandatory cap ensures

that school boarus I.:annot ignore the will of the voting pl.blic. Prospects of flat or reduced state aid to school districts over the next few years will undoubtedly cause an increase in the number of districts forced to adopt contingency budgets. Adding the voice of the New York State School Boards Association in support of NYSASBO will strengthen the position and increase the chances of making this recommendation a reality.


The Resolutions Committee believes that arguments in support of the resolution are well stated in the rationale.

6. Discharge of Uncertified Teachers

Submitted by the Nassau BOCES on June 10,2002.

RESOLVED, that the New York State School Boards Association seek a change in Education Law to provide that any provisionally certified teacher who has failed to satisfy the educational and experience requirements for a permanent teaching certificate within the statutory five-year requirement for the completion of the same, and who does not satisfy any of the criteria for extension of a provisional certificate as contained in section 80.16 of the New York State Education Commissioner's Regulations, shall be discharged from employment without resort or entitlement to a disciplinary hearing under section 3020-a of the New York State Education Law, despite such teacher's tenured status.

Rationale

Not infrequently, the situation arises where a teacher is hired with provisional certification based on that individual having been awarded a BA or BS degree. That teacher then has a total of five years within which to obtain a MA or MS degree and obtain permanent certification. That same teacher can be eligible for and can be granted tenure after three years. In the event that permanent certification is not obtained within the prescribed five-year period and tenure has been granted, districts can only remove such a teacher following a potentially expensive and protracted 3020-a proceeding.

The proposed change strengthens the linkage between licensure and continued employment and underscores the principle that tenure should not be an artificIal shield to remove.1 when licensing requirements fully under the control of the teacher are not met.

As proposed, the current regulatory exceptions for extensions to provisional certitication will continue to apply providing appropriate protection to affected teachers.


The Resolutions Committee believes that arguments in support of the resolution are well stated in the rationale. Additionally, this resolution would strengthen NYSSBA's already existing positions in this area.

LOCAL NYSSBA

., Grounds for "~mediate Discharge of Uncertified Teachers

Submitted by the Nassau ROCES on June 10, 2002.

RESOL VED, that the New York State School Boards Association seek a change 2 in Education Law to provide that after the revocation or nullification of the teaching 3 certificate of any provisionally or permanently certified teacher, pursuant to the 4 tequirements of sections 83.4 or 83.5 of the New York State Education Commissioner's 5 Regulations or section 3018 or 3019 of the New York Education Law, such revocation or 6 nullification shall be deemed sufficient ground for immediate discharge of such teacher 7 from employment without resort or entitlement to a disciplinary hearing under section 8 3020-a of the New York State Education Law, despite such teacher's tenured status.

Rationale

At present, current statute provides for "two bites of the apple" in terms of due process protection for tenured teachers who are charged with actions that result in the revocation or nullification of a provisional or permanent teaching certificate for acts of moral turpitude outside of a school setting. The first due process protection is that which surrounds the adjudication of the charges supporting the decision to revoke or nullify,

Where the charges are sustained and licensure is nullified or revoked, immediate discharge is still not permitted. A tenured (now unlicensed) teacher still has a second set of due process protections under 3020-a.

The proposed change would permit a school district to immediately discharge a teacher whose license was revoked or nullified without resorting to an expensive and elongated 3020-a hearing.

The proposed change accelerates the process while balancing due process protections against the requirement to assure the safety of children and maintain the efficiency of school operations.


The Resolutions Committee believes that arguments in support of the resolution are well stated in the rationale. Additionally, this resolution would strengthen NYSSRA's already existing positions in this area.

8. Grounds for Revocation of Teacher Certification

Submitted by the Nassau BOCES on June 10, 2002.

RESOLVED. that the New York State School Boards Association seek a changl' 2 in Education Law to provide that upon conviction of a crime under sectIOns 130 or 2(13 or 3 article 235 of the New York State Penal Law, which constitutes child abuse in an 4 educational setting under section 1125 of the New York State Education Law. any 5 provisionally or permanently certified teacher shall suffer the revocation of his/ht: .. 6 teaching certificate, such revocation to be considered a sufficient ground I()r il11l11edlatl' 7 discharge from employment without resort or entitlement to a disciplinary hearing under

section 3020-a of the New York State Education Law, despite such teacher's tenured status.

Rationale

At present, current statute provides for "two bites of the apple" in terms of due process protection for tenured teachers who are charged with violations of section 130, 263 or 235 of NYS Penal Law. The first due process protection is that obtained in the court of law where the criminal charge is adjudicated. Conviction in that setting results in automatic revocation of the teacher's provisional or permanent certification. It does not however permit immediate discharge. A tenured (now unlicensed teacher) still has a second set of due process protections under 3020-a.

The proposed change would permit a school district to immediately discharge a teacher who was convicted of child abuse in an educational setting without resorting to an expensive and elongated 3020-a hearing including the potential for extraordinary delays in the scheduling of such a hearing because of the unavailability of the teacher to appear due to incarceration.

The proposeq change accelerates the process while balancing due process protections against the requirement to assure the safety of children and maintain the efficiency of school operations.


The Resolutions Committee believes that arguments in support of the resolution are well stated in the rationale. Additionally. this resolution would strengthen NYSSBA's already existing positions in this area.

9. Opposition to Charter Schools

Submitted by the Patchogue-Medford School Board on April 12,2002.

1 RESOL VED, that the New York School State Boards Association is 2 philosophically opposed to charter schools that are not authorized or requested by local 3 school districts.

Rationale

Charter schools that are not authorized or requested by local school districts have several consequences:

• Public funds are diverted to support for-profit enterprises: • Educational profit entities profit directly Ii'om those they aim to educate: • For-profit educational entitles employ uncertified teachers: • For-profit education entities arc not held to the same level of accountability as public

schools; and

• For-profit educational entities implement probTfams marred by historically poor results.

7

LOCAL NYSSBA

{l~1~79

New York State boards of educatIOn need a cohl.!sive. ~oncise mission statement that will solidify their position pertaining to charter schools. Such a statement will send the strongest message to date that New York State school boards will not tolerate the drain on public education that the state has placed upon us. By adopting such a resolution, once and for all, our collective voices will be united.


The Resolutions Committee believes that the arguments in support of the resolution are well stated in the rationale. However, it should be pointed out that this resolution is consistent with a resolution which has been adopted several times by the delegates to the National School Boards Association's Annual Convention. This resolution has been supported by the New York delegation. The NSBA resolution provides, in part, that charter schools should be recognized as "one of several mechanisms available to local school boards, provided that the school board, (a) retains sole authority to grant the charter. " "

10. Arts in Education

Submitted by the Herkimer BOCES on June 6, 2002.

RESOLVED, that the New York State School Boards Association utilize its existing commitment to board development to present school board members with the body of information that shows how the integration of the arts in education allows positive gains to be made in the successful delivery and retention of all curriculum, and to further demonstrate how arts experiences develop the skills that allow students to better process and use what they learn across the disciplines to achieve the goals of the New York State learning standards.

Rationale

Students are delivered the benefit of infusing the arts in education by the lise of creative teaching techniques in the classroom, sequential arts instmction across the !:,tfades and partnerships with community based arts providers. Through creative arts activities, students personalize learning, become better problem solvers, develop superior critical thinking skills and acquire the ability to interpret their own experiences and those of others - vital tools for success in a rapidly changing marketplace as the ability to make creative use of information is the hallmark of mastery in any lield of endeavor.

While the arts provide valuable tools that all students must have. it should he noted those students most at risk must he given the concrete hands-on experiencl's and skills provided by the arts as quickly as pOSSible. Indeed. an experIential arts approach to learning is an essential remedy to help all learners achieve the currently ll1crl'ased expectations that must be met i I' the New York State learnmg standards are to be realtl.l'd.

It is in the best interest of students. and therefore NYSSBA. to help hoard members understand and utilize information showll1g how the ~rts .:nhancl' eUITIl:ulul11 delivery and contribute to student academic success. The models and mformation derived from compelling longitudinal evidence showing the Impact of infusing the arts III

required standards. NYSSBA has the leadership mandate, credibility, programs and expertise needed to accomplish this goal.

NOTE: This resolution was endorsed by the Richfield Springs School Board on June 17, 2002.


The Resolutions Committee believes that the arguments In support of the resolution are well stated in the rationale.

11. Establishment of Statewide Reporting System

Submitted by the Newark Valley School Board on May 16,2002.

RESOL VED, that the New York State School Boards Association support the establishment of a statewide student enrollment and perfonnance data col1ection, analysis, and reporting system. This system should achieve the fol1owing:

provide school districts with critical infonnation about the root conditions that affect student perfonnance; eliminate duplicative reporting by school districts; safeguard the confidentiality of personally identifiable student infonnation; be interfaced to enable compatibility with local student record management systems;

allow local districts to migrate to such a system over time in order for the local district to best maintain local control.

Rationale

This is similar to a resolution that was defeated in the 2001 Business Meeting. Since that time, additional research has come forward indicating the value of having such a statewide data analysis and reporting system. As seen in analysis of NAEP scores, states with standard and accountability systems that had a focus on data analysis of those systems showed the most gains year after year in student perfonnance. In those states, data analysis is available at both the local and state level which allows resources and further refonns to be best targeted at both levels.

It IS time that both New York State and local districts have a consistent set of necessary tools to understand the data gathered from their many sources (including the standards) in order to best understand what is wrong. what is not. and where further refonns and resources are needed. The state-required tests should not be viewed as an end in themselves. but instead as a tool that can supply infonnation about how to better operate ollr districts both at the state and local level. A data collection. reporting. and analysis system is a critical component In such a process.

One cause cited for the defeat of this resolution in previous years was language in the resolution that mandated districts migrate to the system. This resolutIOn "allows" local districts to mibTfate to the system. The value of the system should be self-evident and local districts should not be mandated to migrate unless they see that value.

9

LOCAL NYSSBA

Additionally, a fOl:US on "analysis" has been added to this resolution to stress the value that districts should receive beyond the collecting and reporting of data.

NOTE: This resolution was endorsed by the Union-Endicoll School Board on June 10, the Dutchess BOCES, the Susquehanna Valley School Board and the Rhinebeck School Board Oil JUIle 13, and the Brittonkill School Board Oil June 17, 2002.


The intent of this resolution is clear and its construction is such that many of the concerns expressed by voting delegates at the 200 I Annual Business Meeting have been addressed. Of particular significance is the removal of the mandate that local districts move to a reporting system that is compatible.

• RESOLUTIONS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR ADOPTION

12. State Contract for Portable Classrooms

Submitted by the Hewlett-Woodmere School Board on May 31.2002.

I RESOLVED. that the New York State School Boards Association supports the 2 development of state contracts for the construction. installation and/or purchase of 3 portable classroom units.

Rationale

As the growth in the number of students continues to outpace the availability of classroom space, the use of portable classroom units is increasing throughout New York State and much of the country. Because these units are frequently sold when pennanent space becomes available, or the space is no longer needed. the building dimensions. materials and built-in equipment follows a very common pattern to facilitate resale. Usually, only the placement on the site and utility connections vary from school to school. Yet architectural services are required in every district for developing the specifications for the unit purchase in addition to preparing the site and utility plans.

School district taxpayers in New York State would benefit from the economy of scale that a state contract for portable classrooms would provide. The state-approved and specified units could then be purchased from the vendor and simply configured for local site and utility consideration. The State Education Department's advance approval of common designs for state contract purposes could also speed SED approval inasmuch as only a review of placement and utility issues would be required for each district.

A Statement in Opposition to the Resolution from the Resolutions Committee

Passage of this resolution would negatively tell the state that NYSSBA believes the problems of overcrowding should be rectified by making portable classroom units more affordable rather than expanding the base of state aid for school construction. Since portable docs not always mean temporary. the better solution would be to continue our efforts to increase state aid for district building projects.

13. Labor Costs of Complying with FOIL Requests

Submitted by the Hewlett-Woodmere School Board on May 31.2002.

RESOL VED. that the New York State School Boards Association seek 2 legislation providing that in addition to chargmg for copying costs associated with 3 Freedom of Inf()rmation Law document re4uests. local government agencies also are 4 empowered to re4uire payment. including an advance deposit. for the labor costs 5 associated with obtaining. copying and completing any redacting of information in 6 connection with meeting those requl'stS.

I I

LOCAL NYSSBA

LOCAL ~YSSBA

Rationale

Present law only permits school districts and other government agencies to seek reimbursement of copying costs associated with Freedom of Information Law document requests. However, processing some of these requests can be very labor intensive. For example, payroll printouts may be subject to FOIL but, frequently, those printouts contain information which may not be released (e.g. social security numbers, insurance coverage, telephone numbers). In these circumstances, the government agency is required to redact (e.g. white-out) that information. This is true whether the individual requesting the information is requesting to merely inspect it or to have a copy made.

By far and away the largest costs to the government agency in complying with a FOIL document request is the labor cost associated with producing the information in an allowable form for public inspection. School districts and other agencies should be able to recover these costs as well as the cost of any copies which are made by requiring an advance deposit based upon the estimated labor and copying costs.


The Resolutions Committee is sensitive to the many mandated costs imposed on local school districts to comply with state, federal and local laws and regulations. However, we believe that this resolution calls for remuneration for services that are at the heart of open government. School boards must conduct themselves in an open, fair and honest manner. Access to documents which are not widely and publicly available as a matter of law should not be restricted to those who can afford to pay in advance for the labor costs accrued to the district. Our school districts, and appropriately requested documents under the Freedom of Infonnation Law, must be open and available to everyone.

14. Disposal of Surplus Property

Submitted by the Hewlett-Woodmere School Board on May 31,2002.

1 RESOLVED, that the New York State School Boards Association seek 2 legislation providing that boards of education may delegate to the superintendent of 3 schools the authority to declare any single piece of equipment, instructional materials, or 4 supplies with a value less than $5,000 as surplus to the needs of the school district and 5 place such item for sale, or otherwise arrange for its disposal, in a manner best keeping 6 with the district's fiduciary responsibilities. The legislation should also provide that the 7 superintendent will report in writing, at least annually, to the board on all such actions 8 taken.

Rationale

Valuahle school board meeting time is taken up with consideration of proposed declarations of surplus property. Without a personal inspection of the items proposed for disposal (e.g. old projectors, broken printers, unusable computers), and the expertise to know whether such an item has any value to the school district, these actions are a waste of the policy making time of a locally-elected school board.

12

LOCAL NYSSBA

•

• I 2 3

Legislation should be sought to pennit boards, at their discretion through the adoption of local policy, to delegate this responsibility to the superintendent of schools and other administrators who arc best equipped to make these evaluations and cany out this work, while still reporting in writing to the boards on their actions under such delegated authority.


The Resolutions Committee believes this resolution is unnecessary at this time. While New York's Education Law gives school boards the authorily to sell or otherwise dispose of a distric!'s personal property, NYSSBA is aware of no provision prohibiting school boards from delegating such authority to superintendents. As a matter of practice, a district's business official typically assesses surplus property and the superintendent prepares the related resolutions upon which the board must then vote. This is not an onerous burden for school boards.

15. Tournament and Competition Expenses

Submitted by the Plainview-Old Bethpage School Board on June 6, 2002.

RESOL VED, that the New York State School Boards Association support the right of local school boards to expend monies for co-curricular tournament and competition fees, and related travel and supervisory expenses, entirely or in part .

Rationale

In light of the decision in Appeal of Christie involving the Bedford Central School District by Education Commissioner Mills, it is impennissible for school districts to fund or contribute to co-curricular tournamenlfcompetition fees, and related travel and supervisory expenses. In effect, this decision negatively impacts students by:

a. imposing a financial burden on students who succeed in their fields of interest

b. unfairly eliminating students fi'om opportunities based on personal economic factors

Co-curricular tournaments and competitions (exclusive of interscholastic athletics) which do not meet the criteria for curricular activities may not be funded entirely or in part by the school districts. However, co-curricular competitions/toumaments are part of school-sponsored clubs, such as DECA, METMUNC, and the Science Club. As such, local school boards should have the authority to partially or wholly fund these activities.


The Resolutions Comminee believes this resolution is unnecessary because in Appeal oj Chn:m·. the commissioner of education provided ample guidance as to how school disITicts could legally expend momes to COVer the expenses of co-curricular

13

16. Lawsuit Against State if Budget is Late

Submitted by the Herricks School Board on June 7, 2002.

1 RESOLVED, that the New York State School Boards Association be directed to 2 research the propriety of maintaining a lawsuit against the State of New York, and all 3 appropriate state agencies and officers for its consistent failure (18 years - presently) to 4 adopt a state budget on time, and that, if such research demonstrates that the consistent 5 failure on the part of the State of New York to adopt an on-time budget is legally in 6 violation of the State constitution, the Association will initiate legal proceedings.

Rationale

The process of budget building is an extremely difficult one. Absent an approved state budget, local districts are forced to rely on mere estimates. Students, staff, and the community at-large are negatively impacted by a consistently tardy state budget. Programs and staff are in constant jeopardy when the decision makers in Albany continually place the education of our youth (our nation's future) lower and lower on their list of priorities.

NOTE: This resolution was endorsed by the Madrid- Waddington School Board on June 12. the Farmingdale School Board. the Kendall School Board. the Massapequa School Board. the Rhinebeck School Board and the Valley Central School Board on June 14. the Bellmore-Merrick School Board. the Cortland School Board. the Dundee School Board. the Eldred School Board. the Liverpool School Board. the Madison-Oneida RaCES Board. the Malverne School Board. the North Babylon School Board. the North Shore School Board. the Patchogue-Medford School Board. the Scio School Board. the Valley Stream Central High School School Board. the Valley Stream 13 School Board. the Warrensburg School Board. the Waterloo School Board and the Westfield Academy School Board on JUlie 17. 2002.


It is more appropriate for the membership to allow the Association's Board of Directors to exercise the authority and discretion that the membership has bestowed upon it to direct staff to research viable legal claims and act upon such claims when suitable.

Last year, delegates at the business meeting approved new Standards for Education Finance Reform. These standards were developed after statewide forums were held to gather input regarding what improvements arc necessary to make the system work in the best interest of chIldren. Inherent in these standards is the timely passage of the state budget. for without that. none of the other standards are relevant. The five standards arc adequacy. equity. Ilcxibility. predictability and clarity. Alter last year's disastrous state budget process, NYSSBA bas pursued budget reform as one of its six highest priorities for the 2002 Legislative Session.

NYSSBA recommends several reforms: definitive revenue estimates arrived at in time for a budget plan to be negotiated and enacted on time, a time certain for budget resolutions in each house, public conference committees to debate differences between budget resolutions and the Executive Budget, timely budget adoption and if that fails, the continuation of the current law budget until such time as a new state budget can be negotiated.

The Senate passed a bill containing many of these reforms this year. The Assembly Republican Conference has also championed these needed reforms. In adGition, legislation was introduced in the Assembly that would establish an independent legislative budget office that would detennine available revenues on which to base the state's spending plan and assign a realistic fiscal impact to every bill that would impose a cost on a third party such as a school district. We continue to work toward a bi-partisan agreement to enact meaningful budget reform in New York State. School district officials should no longer have to guess at the amount of their state support when putting their budget proposals before their constituents.

Ultimately, it is unclear how a court would resolve the state budget crisis. The budget may be required to be passed on time, but nothing would assure adequacy, equity, flexibility, clarity, and predictability. Timely budget passage and the five standards must co-exist in order to best serve our students and our taxpayers.

17. Take Your Child to Work Day

Submitted by the Sweet Home School Board on June 13,2002.

RESOL YEO, that the New York State School Boards Association is authorized to work toward moving the "Take Your Child to Work Day" to a date outside of the instructional school year.

Rationale

Regular school attendance is a critical factor in school success. Research has indicated a high positive correlation between school attendance, academic success, and school completion.

To complement New York Statc's push for better attendance and as a key ingredient needed to meet the new higher standards. attcndance each day and every part of a day is important for a student's success. Every instructional day for a school year is needed to meet the new higher standards.

Due to excessive student absences on this day, many teachers have found it necessary to put the introduction of new matcrial on hold lor that day.

Although a valuable experience for studcnts. it IS being seen as a source of frustration to tcachers striving to havc students meet the new standards .

Because of the new highcr state standards. we need to send a message to both students and parents that every instructional day is important and any absence from school needs to be weighted carefully.

o~~ 1 r;;~''7 NO fE FROM THE RESOLUTIONS COMMITTEE: "Take Our Daughters to Work Day" was created in 1993 as a national day by the Ms. Foundation for Women to encourage pre- and early adolescent girls to sec their value in the workplace and pursue appropriate education and training to pursue their career goa Is. The day that has been designated is the fourth Tuesday in April. It is voluntary in nature. In 2003 Ms. will change the title to "Take Our Daughters & Sons to Work Day."


The subject of this resolution is a nationally desi!:.rnated day that is voluntary in nature; it is not a state or federal mandate. As such. it is a matter best left to local board control. School districts may choose to address how to handle student absences on this day in their attendance policies.

18. Income Tax Credit for School Board Members

Submitted by the Ballston Spa School Board on June 14. 2002.

1 RESOLVED. that the New York State School Boards Association endorse and 2 support legislation that would enable school board members to receive an annual New 3 York State income tax credit.

Rationale

It is becoming increasingly difficult to attract eager and dedicated school board candidates. Once elected, it can be a considerable drain on a school board member's finances both in lost wages and out of pocket expenses. Yet there are many good reasons to maintain the volunteer nature of this position as the only elected non-paid position in New York State. A state income tax credit of $250 annually would be a modest way to reimburse school board members for their dedicated service.


The Resolutions Committee acknowledges that being a school board member can be a very demanding form of community service that often requires the board member to make personal sacrifices. For some. these sacrifices may indeed be a disincentive to become or remain a board member. The committee also acknowledges that a tax credit might encourage some individuals to become or remain hoard members.

However. providing compensation to school board members 111 the form of a tax credit would fundamentally alter the voluntary nature of school board scn·lI.:e. The traditional uncompensated status of most school board l11ell1ber~ enhances the pubhc's perception of them as selfless advocates for public education. The eXistence of a personal IinanclUl benclit. however small. would erode that perception.

In addition. NYSSBA has consistently lobbied against the usc of tax credits to subsidize private education and other poliCies because they diminish state funds ava1lable for public education aid. Supporting tax credits for school hoard service could

significantly erode NYSSBA's credibility when arguing against private school vouchers and private school tuition tax credits.

19. Restore Local Authority for Local Diplomas

Submitted by the Levittown School Board on June 14,2002.

RESOL YEO, that the New York State School Boards Association seek 2 legislation providing local school boards in those school districts, which maintain a 3 Regents diploma rate above the state average, the authority to grant a local high school 4 diploma in lieu of the Regents diploma.

Rationale

By now, it is clear that the "one-size-fits-all" Regents diploma requirements imposed by the New York Board of Regents has needlessly condemned up to half a generation of New York students to a life of failure. School districts that meet the criteria as called for in this resolution have already demonstrated their commitment to high standards and their ability to educate every student to their highest capacity. It recognizes the reality that such school districts can be trusted to identify the needs and certify the abilities of students to lead a productive life beyond high school. And, third, the restoration of the local diploma is the only strategy available to the Board of Regents that will salvage New York's plan for higher standards and accountability .


While the Resolutions Committee shares the frustration evident in the slow pace of change in the current standards-based education reform effort in New York State, this resolution goes too far to mitigate the impact of a "one-size-fits-all" approach. In fact, school districts across this state have proven that they can educate most students in attendance to the Regents standards, but have not proven that they can educate all students in attendance to this standard. Allowing districts with a greater-than-stateaverage Regents diploma rate to award a local high school diploma in lieu of the Regents diploma is to tum the current education reform plan on its head. Further. and more importantly. this resolution would place under-performing students in a position of not being encouraged to reach for higher academic achievement.

Whether the local diploma is restored for the entire student body or only for those students falling to ohtain a Regents diploma. its intent seems to say that an education reform effort that seeks to hft the hoat for all students is doomed to failure. The ResolutIons Committee belIeves that It IS too soon to make such dire predictions.

20. Conditional Authority to Award Local Diplomas

Submitted by the Levittown School Board on June 14, 2002.

1 RESOLVED, that the New York State School Boards Association seek 2 legislation requiring the New York State Education Department to authorize local Boards 3 of Education to award a local high school diploma in lieu of the Regents diploma wherein 4 such authority shall be automatically !,'Tanted to school districts which maintain a Regents 5 graduation rate above the state average and to other school districts by a process as may 6 be established by the Board of Regents that recognizes local constraints.

Rationale

By now, it is clear that the "one-size-fits-all" Regents diploma requirements imposed by the New York Board of Regents has needlessly condemned up to half a generation of New York students to a life of failure. School districts that meet the criteria as called for in this resolution have already demonstrated their commitment to high standards and their ability to educate every student to their highest capacity. It recognized the reality that such school districts can be trusted to identify the needs and certify the abilities of students to lead a productive life beyond high school.

Modifications would Improve New York's testing and accountabihty system. However, the Resolutions Committee believes that NYSSBA's current positions on thiS vital issue strike the appropriate balance between raising standards for all students and ensuring that the effort results in improving educational outcomes for all students without requiring a one-size-lits-all instructional or assessment approach.

21. Gas Pipeline Safety

Submitted by the Briarcliff Manor School Board on June 12,2002.

1 RESOLVED, that the New York State School Boards Association seek 2 legislation at the federal and/or state level to prohibit placement of a newly constructed 3 high-pressure natural gas pipeline within 1,500 feet of a school building.

Rationale

Currently, there is no provision in federal or state law that addresses safety concerns related to the location of a high-pressure natural gas pipeline proximate to a school building. Under current law, the Federal Energy Regulation Commission (the agency having jurisdiction over gas pipeline construction) and State regulatory agencies are not required to consider the proposed location of a high-pressure natural gas pipeline relative to a school building in the approval process. The New York State Public Service Commission has objected to the proposed location of a newly constructed high-pressure natural gas pipeline within 1,500 feet of electric transmission power lines due to the potential hazards and possible disruption of electric service. Allowing construction of a high-pressure natural gas pipeline within 1,500 feet of a school building presents unacceptable risks to school children and staff, is inconsistent with a school district's responsibility to provide an appropriate leaming environment, and constitutes an undue burden in the post September 11th environment.


The expansion of our energy supply is essential to New York's economic growth and vitality. A proposed natural-gas pipeline would provide a significant source of energy to the downstate area where the demand is greatest. This project would also reduce the state's reliance on fossil fuels and forei!:,Ttl energy sources.

Pipelines are subjected to safety programs established by the U. S. Department of Transportation. Pipeline safety/damage prevention information is mailed to residences and businesses along pipeline rights-of-way. In addition, contractors who undertake digging or construction projects are sent a letter each year asking that they inspect the area where they will be working for pipeline markers. The industry monitors the operation of its pipelines 24 hours per day, 365 days per year. Foot and air patrols also protect their facilities.

Finally, this is a matter of local control. School districts should themselves be able to decide whether to build schools on land within 1.500 feet of such pipelines. This resolution would negatively impact school district buildings already near similar pipelines and potential school huilding construction on land near such pipelines .

Attached is a change order for the signage at the Joseph M. Barry Career and Technical Education Center. I think John Shea's letter to me describes the process very well and the need for the change order.

Although not, as John calls it, a critical path item of the construction schedule, we would like to have the signage in place for the December 10 dedication.

We could have conversation about the change order in Executive Session on October 3 and the Board could choose to approve the change order at the October 3rd or the October 10th Board meeting. My preference would be approval at the October 3 meeting. Feel free to call and talk to me about this item if you need to.

BARRY TECH - PROPOSED CHANGE ORDER FOR SIGNAGE

Attached is a proposed change order for signage at the Barry Tech Center, prepared by Park East Construction. The original project design specifications prepared by Burton Behrendt Smith Architects (BBS) detailed a basic signage package that resulted in questions from many of the carpentry contract bidders. The specifications lacked details on colors, wording, and referenced a manufacturer that was no longer in business. During the pre-award meeting with Hi-Lume Corporation (the successful low bidder of the carpentry contract), we were informed that because there were no details they had carried $20,000 in their bid to cover the cost of whatever signage was eventually specified. This amount was clearly indicated on their Schedule of Values presented at that time. It was agreed that BBS would provide complete revised specifications for the signage to HiLume, and that Hi-Lume would provide Nassau BOCES with a price for that revision. It was also agreed that Nassau BOCES would be credited $20,000 as an offset credit on the final signage proposal.

It was in the early summer that the issue of building signage arose again, when Hi-Lume requested the revised signage specifications from BBS. Only at that point did BBS begin soliciting proposals for the item from various signage manufacturers. A number of options were considered, and one style was presented to Nassau BOCES for its review and approval. Comments were solicited from the Career and Tech Ed administration, the Communications and Agency Planning Department, the Facilities Department, and the Superintendent's office and revisions to the proposal were incorporated. By the beginning of September, BBS had obtained enough information from Nassau BOCES to specify a system that could be priced out by Hi-Lume.

During the first few weeks of September, Hi-Lume solicited quotes for the signage system specified by BBS and prepared a proposal that was given to Park East for review. Park East further negotiated this proposal and prepared the attached matrix that summarizes it. In its final form, the total signage package proposal is significantly more than the $20,000 offset, resulting in our request for a change order.

The attached analysis matrix is divided into two basic sections; material and labor. The material section lists the costs for the material directly from the manufacturer, Apco. Park East called the manufacturer to check these prices, and they were accurate. The labor section is a breakout of HiLume's labor cost for installation. Park East negotiated these hours downward from the original HiLume proposal. The one cost for $3,240 in the "MFG" column of the labor section is a quote that Park East solicited directly from Apco for them to install their signs in lieu of Hi-Lume (Park East also asked for a quote for Apco to install the exterior signs, but they declined to provide one). The higher labor cost from the manufacturer provides a comparison for the agreed upon cost with HiLume for $2,456.64.

Ojl on,l , " ~ :"'f "t

The bottom section of the analysis matrix shows the contractually defined markup to Hi-Lume for 10% overhead, 5% profit, and 2% bond. It also shows the subtotal of $55,645.91, a reduction of $20,000 for the amount in the original contract, for a total change order amount of$35,645.90.

Because this change order is for an item that is not in the critical path of the construction schedule, policy dictates that it be reviewed and approved by the Board. However, due to the lead-time for the material, and in recognition of the fact that the CfE program people would like to have the signage in place for the December 10

th ribbon cutting ceremony, we would like to expedite the processing of this

request.

Dear Mr. Shea,

n ~l ~".-t.I< .... ~ ,

Please find the attached Hi-Lome change order proposal and Park East Construction spread sheet pertaining to a proposed change order for the installation of interior and exterior signage.

The attached proposal and supporting documentation reflect the additional cost that has resulted in changes made by the design team and Nassau BOCES. The contract drawings and specifications denote a design scheme that has been revised during the course of construction.

During the post bid interview that was conducted with this trade contractor:> we were informed that Hi-Lume had included in their bid the sum 01"$20,000.00 for the supply and installation of interior and exterior signage. The aforementioned design changes resulted in a cost increase ofS35,645.90 to this scope of work.

A quotation from APeO Signs is attached reflecting the cost that Hi-Lume has proposed. APCQ has also provided a proposal for the installation oftbe interior classroom and bathroom signage that has been included in this package for the purpose of comparison only. The installation cost that m-Lume is proposing furthe remaindlll" of the signage is in our opinion fair and reasonable. They have included in their propoQaf the contractual profit and overhead amounts .

Mr. Farber had the following questions regarding Steve Barone, who is our professional development consultant:

Q#l. Why is the rate so high? I don't recall having paid this rate in the past.

A. The $2,500 per day is in line with the rate consultants of Mr. Barone's caliber receive. Mr. Barone has a national reputation and, in fact, has consulted on strategic planning, team building and trust building for organizations throughout the world. The contract looks high because the Core Team, with input from all of our administrators in the agency, had decided to double the amount of time we used Mr. Barone last year to eight days instead of four for work with the seven cohorts. We did, in fact, pay Mr. Barone the $2,500 per day rate last year.

Q#2. Why are the expenses so high and what goes into those expenses?

A. As with all consultants, we reimburse them for airfare, hotel, meals, rental car and other miscellaneous expenses that would be necessary for them to perfOlm their duties. This estimate is high, but the Board should remember that we only pay actual expenses. Last year we underestimated the expense amount and had to include the difference in a future contract. Naturally, if the expenses come in at lower than anticipated amounts, we will only pay to that ex tent.

Q#3. Why are we getting this so late?

A. The reason it took so long for the Board to see this contract is that we were negotiating with Mr. Barone as to whether or not an additional consultant would be necessary for the eight days of professional development for the approximate 170 administrators in the seven cohorts. We finally arranged with Mr. Barone that he would be able to do this professional development on his own without help from a colleague. That is the reason for the delay.
