K-12 items listed under "funded improvements" are: Basic Education Program (BEP), $45,553,000 ($16,000,000 of that amount resulted from medical insurance premium increases); $7,900,000 for additional BEP requirements; and $227,800 for training and experience steps for state special schools.

Tennesseans pay the least in state and local taxes - and spend less than all but two states A new report from NEA Research shows once more that Tennesseans are not overburdened with taxes. In fact, says TEA Manager of Research Graham Greeson, What we have is an investment problem. The amazing thing," Greeson noted, is that despite our miserable level of spending on our schools, our students consistently rank at or near the national average on all the standardized tests. Our teachers and schools are giving us far more than were paying for in results. To read the full report click here

Extractions: Resources ~The Face of Immigration in Tennessee~ Like many other parts of the U.S. Southeast, in the last decade the state of Tennessee has begun to experience unprecedented growth in the numbers of Latinos and Latinas who live and work here for all or part of the year. The state has long had a small year-round population of persons of Latin American descent, and Tennessee farms and nurseries in some parts of our state have hosted transient seasonal Latino workers for years. But most observers agree that what is happening today is qualitatively and quantitatively new. In the spring of 1999, twelve law students at the University of Tennessee signed up to take a seminar (pictured below) offered by Professor Fran Ansley at U.T. College of Law We wanted to find out about the experiences of Latino immigrants with the legal system here, we hoped to identify any special needs they might have for legal representation or for education about their legal rights and responsibilities. We also wanted to find out how the legal profession and the justice system were or were not responding to these new circumstances. Finally, we hoped that by the end of the semester we could actually make a difference in some small but concrete way. Over the course of the semester we learned a great deal. We became convinced that Latino immigrants themselves are often hungry for additional information to help them understand and deal with their new environment. We also learned that many native-born Tennesseeans want to learn more about their new neighbors, about what brought them here, and about what they are encountering in the workplace and the community. There are a number of agencies, organizations, and individuals who are now working in Tennessee to serve, reach out to, and organize Latino members of the community. All of these players have voiced a need for more information and for better linkages with other people and organizations that are taking up these issues in Tennessee and elsewhere.

Extractions: CHAPTER 9 Integration with other Adult Education and Training Activities Section 224 (b) (11) of the Adult Education and Family Literacy Act states: Describe how the adult education and literacy activities will be carried out with any funds received under this subtitle, and how they will integrate with other adult education, career development, and employment and training activities in the State or outlying area served by the eligible agency. 9.0 Integration with other Adult Education and Training Activities (Section 224 (b) (11)) Description of Planned Integrated Activities Tennessee adult education and literacy activities are and will continue to be integrated with other career development, education, and employment and training activities at the State and local levels. This integration is accomplished by the coordination of State level policies and plans, interagency agreements and Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs), feedback and guidance from providers and stakeholders, collaborative planning, data sharing and matching, joint efforts to leverage resources, and the encouragement of local level integration through funding application processes. The following table highlights many of the mechanisms for interagency coordination and integration of adult education activities, but it should not be considered an exhaustive list. The Office of Adult Education recognizes the significance of the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) legislation for enhancing the facilitation and coordination of the Office's adult education, literacy, and workforce development activities with those of other agencies, institutions, and organizations within the state. The Office Of Adult Education will continue to partner with other state agencies in shaping programs for educating adult learners, preparing an effective workforce, and holding adult education and workforce preparation programs accountable for results. Readily apparent advantages of continuing and improving upon interagency communication and collaboration include infrastructure development and the assurance of non-duplication of services, as well as cost-effective delivery.

Extractions: Previous Chapter Contents Next Chapter The first settlers in Tennessee had little time or use for book-learning, but they did have a wide and thorough education in the lore of rifle, plow, and broadax - learning which cleared and peopled a wilderness. Such schooling as there was lay in the hands of a few clergymen, usually Presbyterians who had joined their Scotch-Irish congregations from North Carolina and Virginia. In summer, when children could be spared from farm work, the local preacher kept school in the community church-courthouse, a rough one-room log cabin with a packed clay floor and slab benches. Here for a few weeks the children struggled with ciphering, writing, and learning to read from a great leather-covered Bible. A departure from this sketchy between-planting-and-harvest schooling was made by the Reverend Samuel Doak in 1780, when he began conducting graded classes in a log outbuilding on his farm near Jonesboro. The first regular school west of the Alleghenies, it was chartered three years later by North Carolina as Martin Academy, in honor of Governor Alexander Martin. In 1785 the charter was confirmed by the legislature of the short-lived State of Franklin. About the same time the North Carolina Assembly chartered, as Davidson Academy, the meeting house near Nashville where the Reverend Thomas Craighead had gathered a class of boys. Every year or so between 1823 and 1854 the General Assembly passed some ineffective act "to establish a system of common schools in Tennessee." By 1840 the State was spending for public education a little less than 50 cents a year for each white child; a fourth of the adult white population was illiterate. Inevitably, the Negroes were overwhelmingly illiterate, though here and there a bright slave child was allowed to study with his master's children or was taught by some liberal clergyman.

Extractions: Email The Tennessee Initiative for Gifted Education Reform (TIGER) is a network of parents, educators, administrators, legislators, and the general public working to foster an understanding of gifted children and their exceptional needs and to advocate for the appropriate education of all students. Several thousand parents and educators receive TIGER literature at their schools or through the online network. TIGER is a local affiliate of the National Association for Gifted Children , the nation's leading gifted education advocacy organization. Tennessee cannot claim that it is "leaving no child behind" until every school district in the state provides academically challenging and developmentally appropriate instruction to all students, including its very brightest students who are capable of achievement far beyond the standard curriculum.
