The extended school services program in the Richmond Hill CommunityUnknown Date (has links)
"The ultimate goal involved in the construction of this paper is to create a desirable plan of activities for an extended school program in the Richmond Hill Community. To reach this goal it is necessary to gain a clear understanding of all elements pertinent to the success of such a program. The problem with which this paper deals, then, will unfold thus: the development of extended school services in Georgia will be traced, with attention to the results of the 1952 program. Then a geographic, social and economic picture of the Richmond Hill School Community will be presented, the existing needs of the community will be cited and a suggested program of activities that might meet those needs outlined"--Introduction. / Typescript. / "August, 1953." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science." / Advisor: Eugene S. Lawler, Professor Directing Paper. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 82-84).

Perceptions of the influence of school-based activities on voter behaviorBorella, AnnLouise 19 January 1994 (has links)
The purpose of this case study was to explore the
perceptions of school district administrators and members
of the community about the influence of school-based
activities had on voter behavior. The case study focused
on a school district in the Willamette Valley of Oregon.
Interviews were held with the school district
administrators and taxpayers in the community. The
surveyed taxpayers were prominent, influential and well
informed about the school district and the community.
Three questions were addressed to both the school
administrators and taxpayers. (1.) What are the
perceptions of the interviewee on the influence of school
site activities on voter behavior? (2.) What activities
would the interviewee perceive to be most effective in
gaining/keeping community support? (3.) Does the
interviewee perceive anything unusual about the community
in its participation in school site activities and/or
non-school activities?
It was found that attracting the people to the school
site can be a positive influence, provided that the
schoolsite is in good order. The activities most
effective in gaining/keeping community support were those
activities that pulled the widest range of community
members to the school site. The administrators perceived
the large attendance at school activities as support
for the school system rather than the family members
supporting the children. Administrators were also aware
of a large segment of the community without school-age
children, yet no active budgeted plans to reach them
had been made.
Furthermore, community members felt that the district
should live within their budget even though there was
large community support for school based activities.
The change in demographic characteristics, increased
enrollment, and increased property evaluations have caused
the community's perception of the school district to
become more fiscally conservative. Due to the lack of
trust by the taxpayers, the school district needs to
be sensitive to the community by furnishing timely
information about the how and why public monies are being
spent. / Graduation date: 1994

Current applications, implementations, implications, and effects of the extended school year conceptRichmond, Mossie J. January 1973 (has links)
The purposes of the study were: (1) to identify schools and/or school districts in which extended school year or year-round school programs were currently in operation in each of the fifty states of the United States of America; (2) to identify schools and/or school districts in the United States of America where year-round or extended school year programs had been implemented and abandoned since 1956; (3) to identify schools and/or school districts in the United States of America in which year-round or extended school year programs were to be implemented in the near future; (4) to determine the type of extended school year or year-round programs and variations of programs conducted or to be conducted in each school district identified as part of the study population; (5) to determine the extent to which each year-round or extended school year design or variation of a design had or had not permitted district officials to achieve a common set of year-round school objectives found in the literature and presented in Chapters I, II, and III of the study.The investigation was conducted in two phases. Both phases were conducted by survey questionnaire instruments.

Enrollment decline: the uses and disposition of excess space in 106 Oregon public school districtsBrothers, Marjorie 01 January 1983 (has links)
A survey was made of the status of public school districts in Oregon with regard to growth or decline in enrollment and the uses or disposition of excess space resulting from a decline. A questionnaire was mailed to superintendents in each of the 126 districts which had declined in enrollment during the years between 1970 and 1983. Of the 106 districts which returned the questionnaire, 53.7% had experienced a decline of sufficient magnitude to require some adjustment in the ways in which building space is used. This excess space was used for classrooms, curriculum centers, office space, community programs, and for programs mandated by state, federal, or local governments. Districts used varied means to inform or involve the public in decisions concerning excess space. Administrative decision was the most often reported method; the use of a task force or citizens' advisory group was less often used. To explore the issues which might be factors contributing to conflict surrounding the closure of a school, the 33 last closed schools were examined in detail. Pearson correlation computations revealed a significant inverse relationship between the level of opposition to the closure and the presence of a task force in the decision-making process. An inverse relationship was also found between the level of opposition and the average length of time that school board members had served. No significant correlation was found between the level of opposition to the closure and the financial result of the closure. Of the 33 schools examined in the study, 29 had resulted in a financial saving; the remaining four had been closed so recently that the financial result was not yet known.

An area realignment survey of Virginia Special Olympics, Inc.Wilson, Joseph Lloyd January 1985 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to gather responses from key Virginia Special Olympics' volunteers about their perceptions of several issues and concerns relating to the realignment of their current geographical areas of service. The study was done in two parts. Part one consisted of a survey which was sent to 222 key volunteers and three paid staff members. Of the 218 surveys which were able to be delivered, 170, or 78%, were completed and returned. Part two was a personal interview with each of the current twenty-one Area Coordinators.
The results of the survey indicated that most volunteers attended on the average 3.5 meetings per month and averaged between 16 and 30 miles of travel per trip (one way). Most respondents felt that their areas' current budget was adequate to provide training programs and area games. They felt that changing the area boundaries would not adversely affect the support of the sponsors. The great majority of volunteers spend between $5.00 and $20.00 a month and few ask for reimbursement from Virginia Special Olympics. Most respondents felt that there were few problems between local, area, and state programs.
A large majority of the respondents felt that there was a need for full-time paid Area Coordinators because most areas have between 76 and 225 participants and the duties of an Area Coordinator are considerable. The majority of the respondents said that their involvement would remain the same no matter what size their area was and that their current boundaries did not need to be realigned at this time.
When the Area Coordinators were interviewed, they substantiated the results of the survey. However, three felt that their area really needed to be changed. only The rest felt that the current area boundaries were adequate for the present.
At the Board of Directors meeting held June 22, 1985, the evaluator made a presentation of the findings of the surveys and interviews. After a lengthy discussion the Board voted to make changes in eight areas and to add four new areas. / Ed. D.
