Alachua County Council of

Parent Teacher Associations

“Together We Make A Difference”

President: Mary Zinger January/February 2002 Editor: Lisa Labbe

President’s Message

It’s 2002 - the start of a new year that brings renewed purpose, dedication, and resolve to our lives. I challenge you to add one goal to your already crowded schedule. Resolve to increase your involvement in being an advocate for all children. You are already leaders in your own schools but I challenge you to go a step further and become involved in not only issues effecting the children of Gainesville but the children in the state of Florida, too. PTA can help you along this new path. The county council is ready to provide training and information about issues of our district. Please plan to attend our next general council meeting on Thursday, February 21st. Bring several other board members with you. School District personnel will be speaking on issues involving curriculum, zoning, and school choice. The state PTA is providing advocacy training and a chance to meet with legislators in Tallahassee at the Legislative Conference February 11th and 12th. If you have not appointed a legislative chair at your school, now would be a good time to do so. Then send them to the Legislative Conference for on-the-job training. Everyone has too much to do and not enough time, so we do have to prioritize. Make being an advocate for all children one of your priorities for 2002 and you will be fulfilling the new National PTA slogan “everychild.onevoice.”

Treasure Box

This holiday issue of the Treasure Box is a gift-the gift of brevity! OK, I must confess, it’s not only in the spirit of giving that I’ll make this column short, but also the flu I’m now battling that will keep this brief (yes, despite super-human powers of accounting and budgeting, even treasurers can get the flu!).

After the holidays conclude and your Board meets in January, this is your time to shine, Treasurers. Planning for the rest of the year should begin this month, and one of the major decisions your Board

will make is how to allocate any surplus your unit has hopefully accumulated so far this year. This is where your hard work in keeping track of your unit’s revenues and expenses begins to pay off. You will be able to report to the Board the current status of your unit’s finances, your actual income and expenses compared to your budget, and review any further income and expenses anticipated for the rest of the year. You can also take a look at the net outcome of any fundraisers your unit has held this year and see if any changes should be made for next year.

Here are a few key things to remember in making allocation decisions. Your local PTA unit is a private organization, legally and financially separate from the school. Therefore, the PTA Board is responsible for determining how its funds will be spent. While your unit and school hopefully enjoy a wonderful partnership, it is important for the PTA and the school not to mix funds between PTA and school accounts. For example, school booster organizations or clubs should not deposit funds in the PTA’s account, unless they are making a donation to the PTA. Likewise, monies raised by the PTA should not be deposited directly to a school account, even if the PTA plans to make a school related purchase from these funds. If your unit determines that it will allocate funds to support a school related purchase, and that purchase will be made from the school’s account, the PTA can donate those funds to the school for that purchase. Remember, as Treasurer, you should always obtain appropriate documentation for all expenses. This includes documentation, such as an invoice, that corresponds to a donation made to the school for a specific item. Lastly, please remember that the PTA Board should not make allocation decisions that will obligate future Boards to any expenses.

This is an exciting time of the year, one where most PTA volunteers are rewarded by seeing the difference their efforts have made to their schools and all children in our communities.

Peace and best wishes for a Happy New Year!

(Ken Marx - ACCPTA Treasurer)

Nominations and Elections - It is not too early to begin thinking about the process of nominations and elections. The first step in this process is electing a nominating committee. In your bylaws

in Article VI: Officers and their Election, Section 3. Nominating Committee the following information appears.

There shall be a nominating committee composed of ____ members (at least three and always an uneven number) who shall be elected by the association at a regular meeting at least one month prior to the election of officers. The president shall appoint a chair pro tem who shall call the first meeting. The committee shall elect its own chair. The nominating committee shall nominate one person for each office to be filled and report its nominees at the election meeting at which time additional nominations may be made from the floor. In order to be nominated a person must be a member of PTA.

Only those persons who have consented to serve if elected shall be nominated for or elected to such office.

Members of the nominating committee may be elected to office.

The schools’ individual bylaws will state the number of members to serve on the nominating committee. Also remember the president is not a member of your nominating committee.

Information about officers and their election can be found in the same article under Section 2. This section will specifies how many officers your association is to have and their position. It will also state the month the election is to held.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding nominations or elections please contact me. Also I would enjoy conducting the installation service at your school. If you would like me to do so please call me at 378-9134.

Local Units in Good Standing - We are a volunteer organization, but pride ourselves on running a very professional organization. One of the numerous responsibilities we have as leaders of PTA/PTSAs is to make sure that our local unit is a member in good standing at every level of our association. This includes paying dues to the state PTA for the state and national portion, paying the $25 dues to the County Council, and having our bylaws current.

Presently, $2.25 per PTA member is remitted to the State PTA for the state and national dues. The treasurer should be sending this money to the state frequently. Please don’t wait until the end of the year to do this. There is a State and National

Dues Remittance Form in the President’s Kit of Materials that must be sent with the check. The treasurer should make several copies of this form so it can be used through out the year.

Each local unit is a member of the county council as stated in your bylaws in Article XII: Council Membership. Section 2 of the article states “This association shall pay annual dues to the Alachua County Council of PTAs, as provided in the council’s bylaws. If you have not sent your $25 dues for this year to the council please do so at once. Mail the dues to Sandy Kramer, Vice President of Membership, 2250 NW 24th Avenue, Gainesville, FL 32605. Please remember that because this is part of your bylaws, no vote or board approval is required to submit dues.

Copies of your current bylaws should be on hand at all times-one with the president, one in the secretary’s permanent record book and one on file at the school. In the upper left corner of the first page of your bylaws is the date your bylaws were approved. Local unit bylaws are required to be updated every three years. If the approval date of your bylaws is more than three years ago, it is time to form a committee to review the bylaws. In the President’s Kit of Materials, under the Bylaws Section, is information on how to do this. Also, the County Council is available as a resource if you have any questions about reviewing bylaws.

One of the reasons that it is important to be a member in good standing is so that your local unit will be eligible to receive awards given out by the state PTA. One of your goals this year should be to leave your PTA in good standing. The County Council is ready to be a resource for you if needed. Please contact us if you have questions.

Community News

Program Resource - The Alachua County Cooperative Extension Service is a cooperative

effort among the USDA, University of Florida, and Alachua County. We offer a variety of educational programs that include Nutrition and Food Safety, Personal and Family Finance Management, and Housing and Rental Care and Maintenance. The youth phase of our program is the 4-H program. I am available to do group presentations that can be a series or a "one-shot" coverage of topics related to the above areas. These are informal, easy to understand and hopefully entertaining. The programs are research-based and supported by specialists both in Florida and across the nation. I may be reached by calling the office at 955-2402, fax at 334-0122, or e-mail at I am especially interested in sharing information about nutrition and handling stress, family records and documents, budget and credit management, and the latest in food safety practices.

State of the State's Children Tour - At a Tallahassee news conference on December 20th, the Center for Florida's Children announced an ambitious six-week State of the State's Children Tour, convening Center members and all advocate voices committed to a range of key issues affecting children. The Tour launches in Polk County on January 3rd. Our goal is to inform, inspire, and empower advocates, but most important, we will be listening to the voices of those who care most, know most, and do most for Florida's children: parents, grandparents, professionals, and volunteers, those who dedicate themselves to the well-being of children and families. Knowing that these are trying times, the State of the State's Children Tour will gather information to share with policy makers, the media, and community leaders at every stop. While we can't visit every one of Florida's 67 counties during the first six-weeks of the Tour, we're making plans to extend the Tour after the adjournment of Legislative Session to be able to pay special recognition to the efforts of child advocates in all corners of this vast and diverse state. The Tour has its own link on the website. Events are still being planned, and dates and sites will be announced via e-alerts, and will be posted on the website. Your vote of confidence is valued and your feedback is appreciated. For we have promises to keep . . . and miles to go before we sleep . . .

SBAC News

As we begin another year, it seems an ideal time for reflection. Last year was filled with challenges and changes, and there are many more to come. Following a tumultuous period internally, the Alachua County School District began a period of rebuilding. We reevaluated our structure and began reorganizing, concentrating our efforts on creating a student-focused team. We experienced our best school start ever, with teachers, parents, and district administrators working side by side as ‘Helping Hands’ to ensure that our students had a smooth transition into the new school year. After giving some of the highest salary and benefit increases in recent years, reducing class sizes, and improving efficiency in everything from transportation to technology, morale began to improve. Now, realistically, we must consider last year’s struggles and the diminished resources we are currently faced with. Many reductions have already been made, including over $600,000 in administrative reductions at the Kirby-Smith Administrative Building, hiring and travel restrictions, deferred maintenance expenditures, and overall reductions in the operating budget. Board priorities will be readdressed because our district must live within our means and create a balanced budget. We are facing tough decisions, but we continue to focus on success for our students and the fulfillment of our district mission.

This community has many reasons to be proud of our schools. Following the tragedy of September 11th, our students, faculty and staff began an outpouring of patriotism. From gestures of support for the victims in New York, to wonderful ceremonies honoring our local veterans, our schools overwhelmingly displayed their citizenship and in a united effort showed their pride in America.

Without question, our district is successful because of the cooperative efforts of our teachers, staff, administrators, parents, students, volunteers, food

service workers, bus drivers, secretaries, maintenance workers, technicians, and custodians. It is through this team effort that Alachua County students are provided with the service and support to perform well above state and national averages. Our students also continue to benefit from new academic and vocational opportunities, and our district earns national and international recognition for its innovative programs.

Regardless of our challenges, we’ve had many outstanding achievements in the Alachua County public school system during this past calendar year.

District implementation of a five-year Strategic Plan is used to set district-wide school year priorities and guide the budgeting process. This year progress was made in a number of ways, including the highest increase in salary and benefit schedules in recent years, the construction and renovation of facilities across the district; safety and security planning and training; an emphasis on Character Education at all grade levels; the development of a Comprehensive Curriculum Plan which will address strategies for successful learning for all of our students; the upcoming adoption of a district-wide reading program; and continued expansion of partnerships with postsecondary institutions to provide services and resources to both students and staff.

For the fourth year in a row, Alachua County earned the prestigious “What Parents Want” Award from SchoolMatch, the nation’s largest school selection consulting firm. Only fifteen percent of all school systems in the U.S. qualified for this award, which is presented annually to those districts which consistently maintain the qualities parents most want in their schools. Those qualities include high academic achievement, lower-than-average class size, and a wide variety of programs at the middle and high school levels.

Chiles, Wiles, and Newberry Elementary Schools have been designated “Five-Star Schools” by the Department of Education. The award recognizes schools with exemplary programs that fully integrate school and community involvement to produce higher student achievement. These Alachua County Schools have met the rigorous criteria in the five required areas of Business Partnerships, Family Involvement, Volunteers, Student Community Service, and School Advisory Councils.

The number of rigorous Advanced Placement (AP) Tests passed rose by almost 6% in 2001, with the figure at a ten-year high. As a result, the state awarded Alachua County over $1 million in AP incentive funds. 1838 AP exams were passed by local students, an increase of 104 over the previous year.

Results of the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) reflected well on Alachua County schools. FCAT scores in 2001 were equal to or greater than the state averages at all grade levels. Alachua County boasts 19 schools that earned a score of ‘A’ or ‘B’ from the Florida Department of Education.

Composite SAT scores for 2000-2001 continue to be well above state and national averages. In Alachua County the average score is now 1063, compared to the state average of 1004 and the national average of 1020.

Eastside High School was ranked the third best high school in the nation by Newsweek Magazine in March 2000, and was the highest ranked public school! The percentage of Eastside students earning the prestigious International Baccalaureate Diploma continues to surpass state and national averages. Eighty-two local students earned the IB diploma in 2001, representing a pass rate of 79%. Both the state and national average is approximately 75%. Student success in the IB program resulted in the awarding of over $654,251 in IB incentive funds.

Twenty-five Alachua County public school students were named semi-finalists in the 47th annual National Merit Scholarship Program. Semi-finalists are the highest scoring entrants in each state and represent fewer than one percent of the state’s seniors. This designation places them among a select group of graduating high school seniors.

Twelve local teachers recently earned their National Board Certification.

An emphasis on Character Education is integrated into the curriculum at every public school. Student artwork depicting monthly character traits is prominently displayed on the walls of the School Board meeting room. Our Character Counts Center is providing an educational option for elementary students who are unable to meaningfully participate in the community life of a school.

Technology upgrades are taking place all over Alachua County. Over 3,000 outdated computers will be replaced using Qualified Zone Academy

Bonds (QZABs). This important initiative will ensure that our students and staff have access to educational software and resources on the internet.

These are just a few examples of important accomplishments in Alachua County Public Schools. As we look to the future, we are continually striving for excellence. In order for the Alachua County School District to function as efficiently as possible, the district will undergo a review by the Office of Program Policy and Government Accountability. Through this review district operations will be examined to determine whether districts are using the Best Practices to evaluate programs, assess operations and performance, identify cost savings, improve management efficiency and use of resources, and link strategic and financial planning and budgeting to district policies. Ultimately, bureaucracy will be reduced and more money will be directed to the classroom. In fact, our district has just received a glowing report from our latest financial and compliance audit, which is a comprehensive audit of policies, procedures and financial practices in the district.

Florida law requires that school districts maintain a balanced budget. In the upcoming session we are hopeful that the Legislature will examine the crisis facing school districts across the state and place an emphasis on providing additional resources to stabilize education in Florida. Our district has already experienced a 3% cut for this fiscal year, and we are anticipating an additional 7% shortfall for the next fiscal year.

Unfortunately, education funding in Florida has not kept pace with student needs and we must now explore new revenue sources. It is critical that this community rally behind quality education in Alachua County, and help us pursue local options for funding. We welcome ideas that will help us continue the scope and quality of our programs, and that will insure that every student in Alachua County receives the education they deserve, and that our faculty and staff are appropriately compensated for their tireless work on behalf of our children.

We are proud of our students, teachers and staff for their efforts and accomplishments, but with declining revenues and competing priorities, we face the difficult challenge of providing engaging instruction and a competitive compensation system. With over 80% of our resources dedicated to salary and benefits, it is inevitable that the tough

decisions we are facing will impact people and redefine the structure of our school system. Our goal is to make as many cuts as possible outside of our classrooms, maintain the integrity of service to our students, and be accountable for our students to achieve and succeed in every chosen endeavor.

We look forward to continuing our tradition of excellence and hope you will join us as we work through our challenges and strive to make 2002 an even more successful year for our schools and our children.

State PTA News

Over 500 delegates representing PTAs in Alachua County, and throughout Florida, attended the 79th annual convention of the Florida PTA in Jacksonville on November 9-11, 2001.

The convention is the organization’s annual meeting, at which it conducts a variety of important business, ranging from organizational concerns to development of the PTA’s legislative advocacy program.

Advocacy was a major order of business as children’s advocates across Florida organize to convince Governor Bush and the Florida Legislature to reverse the devastating budget cuts to schools and other services for children.

Last January, Governor Bush reported the aggregate total of tax cuts made during his administration exceeded $6.1 billion. After further cuts were enacted last spring, the total now exceeds $9 billion. Regrettably, because the state has less revenue, it cannot afford to continue services at a level the PTA asserted already failed to meet the needs of Florida’s children.

The 2002 session of the legislature will be an important test of the will of Florida’s citizens and its elected leaders. They must answer the important question, Can Florida afford its children?

While the Florida PTA legislative program is a comprehensive array of positions urging responsible action by the legislature and other leaders, five new positions were added to expand and refine the PTA’s platform.

Prevention: While the PTA has a long history of supporting proposals to prevent problems before they become more harmful and expensive, for the first time we adopted a specific call to invest in effective prevention services.

Harassment Free Zones: The PTA supports efforts by schools and school districts to ensure students are free from harassment, bullying and other such abuse in school.

Responsible Sexuality Education: The PTA asserts families should be the primary educators on sexuality, but supports the call of the US Surgeon General for curricula that are comprehensive and medically accurate. The PTA urges that families should have the option to decline for their children to participate in sexuality curricula.

Newborn Metabolic Disorder Screening: The PTA urges that all newborns undergo a comprehensive screening for major metabolic disorders, consistent with the recommendations of the March of Dimes and other medical authorities.

Registered Nurses for Schools: The PTA refined and enhanced its position calling for adequate school health services.

Finally, delegates made bylaws amendments to resolve minor inconsistencies and to increase Florida PTA membership dues from $1.00 to $1.25. Because the National PTA also has enacted a small dues increase, total state and national dues will be $3.00 beginning in the 2002-2003 membership year. PTA membership will continue to be an incredible bargain and will sustain the most effective advocacy on behalf of children in our state and nation.

Parental Involvement / Programs

Parental Involvement – It’s a Whole Lot More than Punch and Cookies at School Parties!

Parental involvement in education seems to exist in an inverse proportion to a student’s grade level. That is, parents eagerly participate in school-based activities in elementary schools, and they can be seen reading, writing, and doing arithmetic with the children at home, but as the years progress, schools find it more and more difficult to attract parents into the schools to tutor or mentor, and parents spend less and less time even checking to make sure students are getting their homework done and preparing for tests.

Of course, part of the reason parents are pulling away is that their children are pushing them away as part of the process of maturing. Our job as

parent, however, doesn’t conclude, our “contract” doesn’t terminate, just because our older kids need to exercise more independence, or because the subject material becomes so much more difficult. In fact, our involvement in the educational process should grow in proportion to, not reduce with, our student’s grade level. However, we probably all need to rethink what parental involvement is, or should be.

Take an active interest in your child’s curriculum, study habits, time devoted to school work, grades on all types of assignments (not just tests), and commitment to doing his or her best. Without becoming the Grand Inquisitor, frequently ask detailed questions about assignments, projects, and tests. Which teachers does your student like best, or least, and why? What types of study techniques seem to work best? How can you be of help?

Perhaps your child is now studying a subject in school in which you have no training, or perhaps had difficulty yourself. You can sit down together to read a textbook or work through an example, then try to help each other understand the new idea or technique. Sometimes, the best example a parent can provide is an example of how to learn something new.

Get involved and stay involved. Ask questions and get answers. Parental involvement in education is a whole lot more than just punch and cookies!

Don’t forget to search the Internet for parenting and homework resources. Check out worldnet. . It has a new Parenting Channel, with resources for the entire parenting cycle. Also, check out their Research Channel for links to all types of reference materials and homework assistance sites. Another valuable web resource is the Learning & Research Channel . Can’t find what your searching for? Try -- the search engine of choice at our house!

Superintendent Forms Advisory Council -The SBAC Superintendent, Mary Chambers, has formed a new Superintendent’s Advisory Council, composed of community, school, district, PTA, SAC, and union representatives, to assist her in her efforts to develop recommendations on district-wide policies and procedures relevant to educational issues and the cost-effective delivery of educational services in our district. An inaugural

meeting was held on December 12, 2001, and the council will begin meeting regularly on January 17, 2002.

At its organizational meeting, the council was provided an executive level summary of the budgetary issues faced by the District. The January meeting will be devoted to developing an initial listing of issues and priorities, in the eyes of the Advisory Council, that deserve priority attention from the Superintendent, especially in view of the current budgetary crisis.

Over the coming months, this council should serve as a valuable conduit of information and feedback between the District and the community it serves.

Legislative News

It has become very clear that the legislative session that starts this month will be tough a one. Funding for education will likely be cut, as will funding for most state programs. Alachua County Representatives and Senators, and those making important education decisions, need to hear that the education and welfare of our children must be the top priority. ACCPTA offers two ways to help your voice be heard this year. The first is the ACCPTA web site . The second is the Florida PTA Legislative Conference being held on February 11-12, 2002, in Tallahassee. Both resources can help you become involved through sharing your priorities with those making key decisions about our children's future. The ACCPTA web site includes how to contact legislators from Alachua County and those on House and Senate education committees. Senator Richard Mitchell is on the Committee on Education and Senator Betty Holzendorf is on the Appropriations Subcommittee on Education. Both cover only parts of Alachua County. In the House, Representative Perry McGriff is on the Committee on Education Appropriations. All of the legislators on education committees should be contacted since

that is where many important decisions are made. We also need to contact Alachua County Senator Rod Smith, Rep. Ed Jennings, Jr., and Rep. Will Kendrick since they will vote on the bills once they arrive on the floor for a vote. Tell your legislators what effect you think a particular bill will have on your children. Be concise, but specific. Be polite, even if you disagree strongly with the legislator. You will be more effective if you are reasonable. The ACCPTA web site includes a link to the Florida PTA. This site provides legislative alerts and information on specific bills that are either supported or opposed by the Florida PTA. The Florida PTA platform was adopted at the 78th Annual Convention held in November. All PTA members are invited to the annual Legislative Conference being held in Tallahassee on February 11-12th, which is during the legislative session. On the first day, information will be provided on important legislative issues. On the second day, the Alachua County PTA delegation will meet with our legislators and their staff. Contact your school PTA if you want to join us. Our Representatives, Senators, and others making important education decisions, need to keep the education and welfare of our children as their top priority.
