Three revealing charts on state per-pupil
funding in Pa. public schools
Keystone Crossroads/WHYY
Newsworks BY KEVIN MCCORRY
OCTOBER 31, 2016Recently, we published a story that analyzed the effects of the dramatic enrollment swings that have taken place in Pennsylvania school districts over the past 25 years. The interactive graphic above was included in that piece, but it's worth noting as a tool in and of itself. The graphic is sharable, downloadable and able to view in full-screen.
The first tile in the graphic allows users to see the clear correlation between enrollment change and per-pupil state basic education funding. In general, because of the state's "hold harmless" policy, the more students a district lost, the better its rank in per-pupil state funding. Using the sliders on the right you can see how correlations change based on race and level of funding.
The second tile compares median
household income with state funding allocations. In general, poorer districts
receive more state funding, but the graphic highlights some important
disparities. For instance, it shows that many
districts serving a majority of students of color receive less per-pupil state
support compared with many predominantly white districts of equal or higher
wealth. To give one example: Erie
SD, with a median household income of about $33,000, gets less state
support than Wattsburg SD, Riverside Beaver County SD, and Avella SD — each
with median incomes over $60,000. Other analyses have
also highlighted this racial disparity.
The third tile looks specifically
at the districts getting the most per pupil from the state.

OFFERS TO RESTORE BRITISH RULE OVER UNITED STATES
The New Yorker By Andy

Addressing the American people from her office in Buckingham Palace, the Queen said that she was making the offer “in recognition of the desperate situation you now find yourselves in.” “This two-hundred-and-forty-year experiment in self-rule began with the best of intentions, but I think we can all agree that it didn’t end well,” she said.
Republicans
poised to maintain their control of PA Legislature
AP News by Mark Scolforo October
29, 2016
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Democrats
will put their recent statewide election winning streak on the line Nov. 8, but
have a tough fight to chip into Republican domination of the Legislature that
illustrates why Pennsylvania is known as a swing state. Despite trailing by about a million votes in
party registration and having lost the governorship two years ago, Republicans
hold solid margins of 31-19 in the Senate and 119-84 in the House. Those majorities, wide even by historical
standards, mean party control is unlikely to change this year. Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf could well end up
with another two years of working with a General Assembly that has a political
and fiscal agenda much different than his own.
As is usually the case, about half the state's incumbent lawmakers have
no opponents and will return when the two-year session starts back up in
January. That's true for 13 of the 25 Senate seats that are up this year, and
for 82 members of the 203-district House.
Half of the state Senate's 50
seats are on the ballot this year, and if Republicans can pick up three of
them, they would control a veto-proof majority of 34.

Potter / Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Pennsylvania Democrats could
sweep Hillary Clinton into the White House, elect Katie McGinty as
senator, and win all three state row offices on the ballot Nov. 8 — and yet, in
one key respect, they could wake up Nov. 9 and still be worse off. Half of the state Senate’s 50 seats are on
the ballot this year, and if Republicans can pick up three of them, they would
control a veto-proof majority of 34. Overriding
a veto would also require a two-thirds majority in the state House, which
remains out of reach. “If the House doesn’t have it, it doesn’t really matter,”
said state Majority Leader Jake Corman, R-Centre.

failing to fix the funnel of public pensions annually sucking down billions of

pension reform? Um, no. But here, have a beer.

Erie schools Superintendent Jay
Badams on Thursday again briefed his fellow area school leaders on the
ramifications of the Erie School District's budget crisis. Badams provided the update on Thursday at a
meeting of Erie County's 13 superintendents at the county's public safety
building in Summit Township. The meeting was closed to the public. Erie County Executive Kathy Dahlkemper led
the 90-minute meeting, which representatives of the region's state lawmakers
also attended. The lawmakers were in Harrisburg for a legislative session. Dahlkemper also led the first
meeting of the superintendents, on Sept. 8. She said she convened the meetings
to build support for the 11,500-student Erie School District, the region's
largest, and to work on solutions to its budget problems. The district is developing a financial
recovery plan to submit to the state. That plan will include a request for more
state aid. The district is projecting
deficit of as much as $10 million in 2016-17, and is considering closing its
four high schools to save money. The district would pay tuition for its 3,000
high school students to attend public schools elsewhere in the county. "It is important for Harrisburg to
realize the regional ramifications of our district becoming insolvent,"
Badams said.

Troubled Philly World Communications
Charter to close in June

One of the oldest charter schools
in Philadelphia has agreed to shut down in June rather that fight allegations
of poor test scores, declining graduation rates and other deficiencies. The School District announced Friday that
World Communications Charter School in Southwest Center City - one of four
original charters that opened in the district in 1997 - has agreed to close at
the end of the academic year and forego an appeal to the state Charter Appeal
Board. Marjorie Neff, chair of the
School Reform Commission, said the settlement reached with World Communications
would provide ample time for the school's more than 425 sixth- through
12th-grade students to find new schools for the 2016-17 academic year. She said it was critical that the World
Communications trustees had acted "in a time frame that allows students
and families to participate in the school selection process across all sectors
for the 2017-18 school year, before that process closes in November."

UPDATE
on Charter School Reform: House Bill 530
Scott C. Jelinski President,
Souderton Area School Board
This week legislation tried once
again to push HB 530 to a vote. This bill, as it was written and proposed to be
state-wide charter school law, threw up red flags for us locally. In response
to this awareness, we
asked our constituents to act and reach out to our local legislators. The
good news is that it worked. Our message was heard loud and clear, with not
only our elected officials, but in districts and organizations across the
state. I want to thank
each and every one of you for taking the time to make your voices heard.
Once again, we showed the commonwealth that Souderton leads the charge on any
issue from Harrisburg that will affect us locally, and we stand our ground. We
have worked hard to relay a consistent message that we will no longer sit back,
watch and wait. We will not allow entities, from outside our boundaries, to
create more friction, more costs, and more turmoil within this organization. We
stand strong, because we ARE Souderton.
Op-ed: Charter expansion bill HB530 is all
tricks, no treats for Pennsylvania taxpayers
WHYY Newsworks COMMENTARY BY LAWRENCE A. FEINBERG OCTOBER 28, 2016 SPEAK EASY
Halloween is just around
the corner, but there is something far scarier in the halls of the Pennsylvania
Capitol than any zombie that comes knocking on your door. While private charter
operators could potentially get a big treat in the form of House
Bill 530, the rest of us will be holding a bag full of tricks. And sadly,
the ones who will suffer are our kids. With
only a few days left on the legislative calendar, legislators are trying to
push through charter expansion with HB 530. Those in favor are dressing it up
in the best costume they have and passing it off as charter school reform. It
is anything but. The state's most recent School Performance Profile scores show
that only 22 percent of charters achieved a score of 70 or higher. So why are
legislators so quick to allow unchecked expansion of these schools and wasting
of tax dollars?
“City Councilwoman Helen Gym, one of
several officials at the protest, said closing so many schools was a mistake. "The Boston Consulting Group report from
2013 was based on faulty data and pushed by education-reform lobbyists,"
Gym said, referring to the company that recommended the closings. "Smith
School was a victim of their philosophy that mass school closings were necessary.
The past 3 1/2 years have shown a much different reality - and opened up a new
set of possibilities for our public schools."
Point Breeze residents say a community

DARCIA BAXTER and her mother once
attended the Walter G. Smith School in Point Breeze. But because Smith, at 19th and
Wharton Streets, was closed in 2013 and is slated for sale, there are fewer
options for Baxter's 4-year-old daughter, who starts kindergarten next year. "I just decided to become a Quaker to
make Friends Select more affordable," Baxter, 42, said after residents and
elected officials protested the sale last week.
"If there's another option, I'd rather be able to send her to
school for free," she added. Baxter
and her neighbors, who have continually fought the school's closure, are hoping
to persuade the School District to reopen Smith, saying the rapidly growing and
changing Point Breeze community needs a school within walking distance for its
children. "You can't have a
community with just houses, houses, houses," Betty Beaufort, a longtime
Point Breeze resident, said recently. "When all those [new] people come
in, some of them are going to have children."
“Savings are anticipated at
approximately $214,000 a year. Much of those savings are due to the elimination

CONCORD >> The Garnet
Valley School Board has moved forward with its plan to outsource custodial
services, awarding a four-year contract for the work to SSC Services for
Education, based in Knoxville, Tenn. The vendor was one of two finalists being
considered by the board and administration.
The board estimates it could save $214,000 a year under the deal. After considering outsourcing
custodial service for several months, the search and selection process
concluded with the award. Superintendent Marc Bertrando said countless hours
were spent looking at proposals, gathering financial information and
references, and had sufficient responses by each. The contract has a start date of Jan. 1,
2017, but not been finalized, according to Business Manager Chris Wilson. Terms
will be a flat dollar amount contract with inflationary increases. Savings are
anticipated at approximately $214,000 a year. Much of those savings are due to
the elimination of the district’s pension obligations. If hired by SSC,
employees will be offered healthcare benefits.
More top high schools drop out of
class-rank system

For the West Chester Area School
District, the last straw for class rank came when a University of Pennsylvania
admissions officer told school officials that a highly qualified graduate had
been rejected because she was ranked 15th out of 320 students. "They said, 'If you didn't rank her, she
would have gotten in,' " Superintendent James Scanlon said of the student,
who had earned a 3.9 grade-point average in the high-achieving Chester County
district. Now West Chester is joining a
growing number of districts around the country in eliminating class rank in its
high schools - a high-stakes strategy that educators hold could help some of
their students get into the nation's elite colleges, since those schools often
overlook candidates who aren't in the rarefied percentiles.

Mock elections are a common way for students to learn about U.S.

Education funding focus of 6th Dist. House
race
Brad Roae, Peter Zimmer, Lester
Lenhart contend for seat
By Valerie Myers
Erie Times-News Posted October 30 at 2:01 AM
School funding, and Erie School
District funding in particular, have become a major issue as the three-way race
for the 6th District state House heats up.
The Erie School District is not in the 6th District but is indicative of
financially troubled districts statewide, Republican incumbent Brad Roae said. Also vying to be 6th District state
representative are Democrat Peter Zimmer and write-in candidate Lester Lenhart.
The district includes portions of central Crawford County and western Erie
County. Roae, 49, of East Mead Township,
Crawford County, was first elected to the House in 2006 and has been outspoken
about Erie School District's financial troubles, saying the district needs to
cut spending before it can expect increased state aid. "All school districts really need to
focus more on their spending so there's not such a reliance on high property
taxes" and additional state funding, he said. School districts also need to stop blaming
charter school and charter cyber school costs for contributing to their
financial woes, Roae said.
“We successfully piloted the project
during summer 2015 in the Anacostia community of Washington, DC, where research
found only one in 830 children had access to an age-appropriate book. Thousands
of children flocked to the vending machines located in a community center, a
supermarket and a local church to select nearly 30,000 books to take home. In
all, we gave away 100,000 books throughout Washington, DC, in 2015, targeting
toddlers through young teens.”

NAACP
President: Why We Should Pause the Expansion of Charter Schools
[Op-Ed] The organization's leader
explains their position on the schools and responds to those who have been
critical of itEBONY BY CORNELL WILLIAM BROOKS, OCTOBER 28, 2016
As America’s oldest civil rights
organization, the NAACP has fought to this very day to give each of the
nation’s youngest citizens a quality education regardless of race. We have even
taken that fight to the marble steps of the Supreme Court. There, in the
historic Brown v. Board of Education decision, Chief Justice Earl Warren ruled,
“In the field of public education the doctrine of ‘separate but equal’ has no
place. Separate educational facilities are inherently unequal.” Over 60 years later, these words
ring resoundingly true in the hearts of parents who know all too well that in
all too many cases, the education their children are receiving remains separate
and unequal. Earlier this year, 2,000
delegates representing virtually every school district across the country
passed a resolution calling for a reasoned pause on charter school expansion,
not rash elimination. The National Board then ratified the
convention delegates’ position, reaffirming decades of NAACP support for
public education. Many allies have commended our position and raised very
similar concerns, including the Movement for Black Lives, which called for an
end to charter schools as we know them just weeks after our July convention.
But there has also been much unfounded outrage, with some critics even claiming that our
decades-old position is contrary to the NAACP’s mission.
Education Week Teacher Beat Blog By Emmanuel Felton Oct. 28, 2016
A Minnesota judge on Wednesday
dismissed a lawsuit brought by a group of parents and national education reform
groups who contended that the state's teacher tenure laws are keeping
ineffective teachers in the classroom and thus harming children. The judge ruled that the plaintiffs had
failed to prove that there's a link between the due process rights provided by
those laws and the state's wide achievement gaps. The ruling is yet another setback for groups
inspired by Vergara v. California, a landmark case
where a trial court initially ruled that California's teacher tenure laws were
harming students. Although that
decision was later overturned on appeal, the ruling spawned two copycat
lawsuits. A
similar New York state case is currently working its way through the
courts. The plaintiffs in the Minnesota
case argued that the state's laws virtually granted permanent employment to
teachers after three years on the job by making it impossible to terminate them
even if they were ineffective.
“The reason for dismissal of the suit is
straightforward: No established, direct connection between teacher tenure laws
and those dastardly low test scores– with the low test scores of charter
schools (which have non-tenured teachers) blasting the no-tenure,
higher-test-score pseudo-argument.”

Supreme Court
to Rule in Transgender Access Case
New
York Times By ADAM LIPTAKOCT. 28, 2016
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on
Friday entered the intense national debate over transgender rights, announcing
that it would decide whether a transgender boy may use the boys’ bathroom in a
Virginia high school. The legal question
in the case is whether the Obama administration was entitled to interpret a
regulation under Title IX, a 1972 law that bans discrimination “on the basis of
sex” in schools that receive federal money, as banning discrimination based on
gender identity. Last year, the federal
Department of Education said schools “generally must treat transgender students
consistent with their gender identity.” In May, the department issued a
more general directive that said schools may lose federal money if
they discriminate against transgender students.

WASHINGTON—The Supreme Court said
Friday it would review whether local schools must follow Obama administration
guidance stating transgender students be allowed to use the restroom of their
choice. The case came from Gloucester,
Va., whose school
board appealed a federal appeals court decision requiring it to let a
transgender student, Gavin Grimm, use the boys’ restroom. Gavin was born female
but identifies as male. The Fourth U.S.
Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond, Va., said it
was bound to follow the Obama administration’s interpretation of
federal civil-rights laws. In May, the
U.S. Education and Justice departments issued
legal guidance to schools regarding the treatment of transgender
students, saying students should be allowed to choose restrooms corresponding
to their gender identity rather than biological sex.
Supreme Court takes up school bathroom
rules for transgender students
Washington Post By Robert Barnes and Moriah Balingit October

The Supreme Court on Friday said
it will decide whether the Obama administration may require public school
systems to let transgender students use bathrooms that align with their gender
identity, putting the court once again at the center of a divisive social
issue. School districts across the
country are split on how to accommodate transgender students in the face of
conflicting guidance from courts, the federal government and, in some cases,
state legislatures that have passed laws requiring people to use public
restrooms that coincide with the sex on their birth certificates. The justices accepted a petition from
Gloucester County, Va. On a 5 to 3 vote in August, they said the school board
did not have to comply with a lower court’s order that 17-year-old student
Gavin Grimm, who was born female but identifies as male, should be allowed to
use the boys’ bathroom during his senior year of high school.
“In Washington, Gates and the other
mega-donors are targeting a judge who has ruled against one of their pet
projects in the past. Last year,
the court ruled that a 2012 ballot measure establishing charter schools in
Washington violated the state constitution because it gave control of charter
schools to appointed boards, rather than elected ones. Wiggins voted with the
majority. Gates, Allen and Ballmer had
helped fund the ballot measure establishing charter schools.”

Three L.A. Charters Under Scrutiny for
Hiring Turkish Teachers on Temp. Visas
Education Week Teacher Beat Blog By Emmanuel
Felton on October 27, 2016 8:25 PM
Three Los Angeles charter schools
up for renewal may be shuttered because of administrators' penchant for hiring
Turkish educators on temporary work visas, reports the Los Angeles Times.
This comes amid broader nationwide concern about some charter schools importing
Turkish teachers. The newspaper
reports that Los Angeles Unified School District will recommend to the Los
Angeles Board of Education that the five-year-old schools' contracts not be
renewed. While district staff hasn't publicly disclosed the reasons for the
closures, the newspaper reports that sources say that the composition of the
teaching staff was key to the decision. Over
the years, California-based Magnolia Public Schools, which runs the three
schools in question as well as seven others, has gotten visas for nearly 100
teachers, almost all from Turkey, to work at their schools. The schools
currently employ 37 teachers on visas, according to the Times. The schools are part of a loosely organized
nationwide network of charter schools with Turkish ties.
