More than half of all public school pupils in New York State are enrolled in city systems. Noreover, if a child is educationally, physically, mentally, or emotionally handicapped, the odds are three out of five that he is in one of the five largest city school systems. If a child's family is on welfare, or black, or Spanish speaking, the odds rise to four or five. The author traces the historical development of the State's role in urban education and makes suggestions for its future role. He...

The text proposes no answers; but, rather, stimulates broad discussion and understanding of the issues as a first step toward consensus on an appropriate federal role. The author examines traditional sources of school funds and considers recent court decisions on educational finance. Most of the presentation focuses on the issues raised by such educational finance goals as...

The purpose was to test the notion that crisis, under certain management conditions, may result in positive change or development. The procedure consisted of two parts. The first considered the extent to which student unrest-related crises occurred in the Public Schools of Philadelphia and their effect upon the...

If your school district is facing a budget issue, it might surprise you to learn that the solution might very well lie in a game of cards. That certainly was the case earlier this year for the city schools of Memphis, Tennessee. The game is called Budget Hold'em, and it was developed by Education Resource Strategies (ERS) of Watertown, Massachusetts, in 2010, after what ERS director Regis Shields describes as "a regular, yearlong resource mapping process" conducted on behalf of the...

This presentation discusses the use of a time series approach to the analysis of daily attendance in two urban high schools over the course of one school year (2009-10). After establishing that the series for both schools were stationary, they were examined for moving average processes, autoregression, seasonal dependencies (weekly cycles), outliers and heteroscedasticity. Seasonal dependencies were significant in both schools. In addition, contrary to what the traditional attendance statistics...

In a study of the mainstreaming practices of a large urban school district, schedules of 844 mildly handicapped elementary students were examined. Schedule appropriateness was defined by three factors: assignments of handicapped students to a fixed group of regular students, to a grade-appropriate group, and for the full sequence of scheduled instruction. In addition, school variables (such as total student enrollment and enrollment of handicapped students by grade) were analyzed. On the...
