N \ NASA/NSTA Space Science Student Involvement Program In 1980, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) teamed up to cosponsor the Space Science Student Involvement Program ($SIP). The SSIP program, designed to address the need for greater scientific literacy in the United States has touehed virtually millions of students and teachers and generated interest in aerospace science and technology. The NASA-NSTA Space Science Student Involvement Program {$SIP) is a set of interdisc!plinary competitions open to students and teachers in grades 6-Sand 9-12. Through involvement in SSIP, they are captured by the topic of Space. The program prOVidesopportunitiesfor participants to channel their fascination of Space through designing proposals for scientific experiments to be conducted in a space environment, creating artistic interpretations ol space scenes, or discussing space topics in Journalism and creative writing. Students work on their projects Individually or in teams, under the supervision of a teacher/ advisor. This partnership between the teacher and student enhances the SSIP experience and is an Important and unique aspect of the program .. SSIP is open to all students enrolled In grades 6-12 in au United States public, private, parochial and overseas schools, including U.S. civil and military overseas establishments, Puerto Rico, Guam, and U.S. outlying territories. The SSIP program is a useful vehicle, not only for teaching about space science or newspaper laYout or using a library, but for guiding students through the critical thinking process whereby they can develop reasoning and decision making Skills. The successful completion of an SSIP entry can bolster a student's self-esteem and confidence. We encourage YoU as a teacher and as a member of the vanguard of professionals who shape, guide, and motivate our future leaders to use the SSIP program to fit Your class, sehool, and community needs. In addition, we welcome YolJr feedback and input on the program, how you and Your students use SSIP, and how we can improve it to meet your needs and the needs YolJr students. SSIP has been endorsed by the Space Agency Forum on International Space Year (SAFISY) as an official ISY education project. --- ~ sv~ - EXCITING RESOURCES 1992 INTERNATIONAL SPACE YEAR: RESOURCE COMPENDIUM FOR EDUCATORS This compendium, created by the National Science Teachers Association- Space, Science, and Technology Division and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) Elementary/Secondary Service, is designed to help educators serving grades K-12 to kick off the 1992 International Space Year. tt is also designed to help educators and students Investigate and celebrate space exploration for many years to come.

This has allowed us to lower the reg1stra.t1on fee for the ftrst time ever. In the pa.st, the costs of these soc!a.l functions were included in the reg1stra.tion fee, and thla resulted in the reglstration fee having to be ra.ised as food costs went up. Many of our participants have indicated they could better afford to attend the Congress ifwe removed the costs of the banquet and luncheon in their reglstration fee and give them the option of attending these soc!a.l functions. As a point of information for individuals who have never attended the National Congress, the Brewer Tropby Luncheon is where the Frank G. Brewer Tropby, the Nation's hlghest award in aerospace education, is presented. This prestigious award is presented by the National Aeronautic Assoo:iation, and each year they furn1sh a nationa.lly renown aerospace leader as the luncheon speaker. The Crown =is Banquet is the grandflna.leofeachNationalCongressandisusedtohonor3-4individuals who have made major contributions to aerospace education.

Hql-317 December 10, 1991 Mrs. ' Catherine Johnson Catherine Johnson & Associates Capitol Towers Little Rock, Arkansas 72201 Dea{ Mrs. Johnson: I am\ submitting recommendations requested concerning the Aerospa~~ School project. They represent my experiences in school building construction and an extensive review of the current literature on the subject. Using the major function timeline for the Aerospace Education Center from which to operate, it is my judgment that the major function timeline for the Aerospace School can still be completed within the same time period. But, in order for that to happen, a specific working relationship between the Aerospace Center Committee and the Little Rock School Board must be developed. Phase One of that relationship involves the creation of an education plan and the educational specifications that follow. It will be impossible for the architect to move forward until that occurs. The planning process outlined between December 1, 1991 and July 1, 1992 focuses on the regular interaction between the board, the school administration and the Aerospace Center Committee. In this review, I did not address the financial issue. However, it is my belief that phase one of the project represents little expenditure but demonstrates a seriousness on the part of the school board and its administration to see the partnership through. I look forward to presenting to you and members of the Committee these recommendations and answering any questions that need be addressed. I will be pleased to work with the School Board individually to the extent to which you direct me to do so. Thank you again. _Sin/e relyo_, __ George D. Cannon GDC/mm AEROSPACE SCHOOL Introduction The Little Rock school board's decision to establish an Aerospace secondary school in conjunction with the planned Aerospace Museum/Center Complex at Little Rock Airport represents a unique and wonderful opportunity to expand education programs beyond traditional boundaries. The partnership created in this effort seems to represent the kind of relationship envisioned in the President's 2000 INITIATIVE. Education reform of the 1980s not withstanding, America's confidence in its schools today is badly shaken. Growing consensus is that solutions to the country's education problems rest with collaboratives -- new and different partnerships. The Aerospace School Museum/Center proposal represents a new approach. Little Rock can be on the early wave of a new national reform effort. A wave that can carry education and economic benefits to the whole community. The Aerospace School Museum/Center, with its accompanying technology, will provide students experiences and options previously unavailable to them. And once in place, the project may well become a catalyst for recruiting aerospace industry to the state. The alliance between the schools and businesses will enhance much needed trust and cooperation between both for a better future. Aerospace School Socrates to Adeimantus: "Well, and don't you know that in every task the most important thing is the beginning ..... " The recognition for the need to plan has been around for quite a while. Schools have no less responsibility than businesses in planning ahead. This task is to provide a set of guidelines to follow in taking the proposed aerospace school from an idea to a completed facility ready to accept its first round of students. When building a school it is my experience that board policies and actions exert greater influence over the planning process than any other combination of factors because school planning is directed and governed by school board policy. Given the uniqueness of the Aerospace School and its relationship to the Museum Center/Complex, coordination should not only be internal but include appropriate Museum/Center planners as well. You cannot build a building if you haven't identified the program for which the school is being constructed. To do that the planning team must: 1 IDENTIFY Legitimate Purposes 3 PROPOSE A Written Program of Space Needs 4 DEVELOP 2 INTERPRET Program needs of school as they relate to facility developed (Educational Specifications) 1 IDENTIFY LEGITIMATE PURPOSES and 2 INTERPRET or rationale for school needs The Administration brings forward to the Board the precise quantitative and qualitative factors in the development of the new school. This is the Education Plan, and its components include: A. The Curriculum Plan B. The Operations Plan C. The Instruction Plan D. The Organization Plan E. The Staffing Plan F. The Evaluation Plan G. The Staff Training Plan H. The Support Plan The stated mission of the Aerospace School and the components of the education plan provide essential information upon which the justification of the school program is based. Information the school board must have in making good decisions. The building of an Aerospace School cannot move forward without an approved Education Plan. 3 WRITTEN PROGRAM OF NEEDS (Education Specifications) The educational specifications or program requirements are the means by which the school district administration describes the educational activities and spaces which need to be incorporated in the proposed new Aerospace School. These are written statements that serve as a vehicle for communication between the administration and the architect. These are not precise statements of program or curriculum. These are not technical specifications similar to those provided the engineer by the architect. They represent a connecting link between the two. These recommendations suggest an educational solution in terms of building needs. This information is essential before an architect can begin developing architectural solutions and issuing builidng plans to prospective contractors. 4 DEVELOP Architect School Principal Staffing Construction Equipment PARTICIPANTS IN THE PROJECT School Board (A) Adopts permissive and guiding policies (B) Approves the official and written product (C) Authorizes consulting services (D) Employs specialists Administration (Superintendent) (A) Designates Director of the Study Committee (B) Provides leadership and assistance throughout the study (C) Evaluates the progress (D) Interprets results to Board, Staff and Community Working Committee (To include representatives from Museum/Center) (To include representative from the School Board) (A) Responsible for organization of the study (B) Identifies needs, objectives, and goals of Aerospace School (C) Prepares written report of findings (D) Reports to Superintendent through Study Director Educational Consultant (Aerospace Program Expertise) (A) Provides guidance and planning information (B) Interprets trends and new programs (C) Assists with Educational specifications Architect (A) Observer and consultant during program development (B) Serves as advisor on architectural considerations ., DEFINITION OF TERMS 1.

BOYNE November 24, 1991 Representative Ray Thornton House Office Building Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Congressman Thornton: First, let me congratulate you and your constituents on the remarkable progress being made by the unique new Aerospace Education Center in Little Rock. It is rare for so ambitious a project to gather such uniform support from the community, industry and the local governing bodies. As you know, the Aerospace Education Center will become the focus for research in aviation and space subjects not only for the students fortunate enough to be enrolled in the magnet school, but also for every other student in Little Rock. In addition, scholars will come from all over to use its facilities, particularly if, as is now possible, the Center begins with a well developed library and archives from the start. From my experience as Director of the National Air and Space Museum, I know how vital an archive like this is to students, scholars, museum people and the visiting public. Such an archive is in fact indispensable--and extraordinarily difficult to create, particular at the current time, when so many collections are being purchased for speculative purposes. It would be possible to launch the Center with one of the best aviation libraries in the country--bar none--if it were able to take advantage of the opportunity offered by the sale of the Jay Miller collection in Dallas. I know that you are familiar with the collection, but I take the liberty to enclose just a sampling of the library. I want to emphasize that this is only about 20% of the book collection. Perhaps even more important from the researchers point of view is the enormous, well indexed collection of black and white photos and color slides. These have a great intrinsic value, but this is overshadowed by the tremendous historical worth of the collection. Sadly, it is almost certain that this collection will be purchased by foreigners and leave the country unless some action is taken as soon as possible to secure it for the Aerospace Education Center. Officials from a Japanese prefecture have evaluated the collection in detail, and have indicated that they are willing to pay $600,000 for the collection. They are presently working on the processing of their necessary paperwork to effect the buy. In addition, I enclose a prospectus on the collection made at the request of the Saudi government as a part of reconstituting the research facilities in Kuwait. As you'll see, the prospectus quotes a price of $885,000, and I personally believe that the Saudi's will respond affirmatively. 21028 STARFLOWER WAY ASHBURN, VIRGINIA 22011 (703) 689-1344 (METRO) (703) 729-8687 I believe this to be the opportunity of a lifetime for the Center. I have inspected the collection in depth, and while I am not an appraiser, I would say with confidence that its value certain lies within the $600,000 to $900,000 range. And it absolutely would not be possible to duplicate this collection at any price, for the photo opportunities will never occur again. The books themselves might be brought together individually, but the price would be astronomical, and it would take, at a minimum, ten years to accomplish the task. One thing that must be emphasized is that this is the collection of a knowledgeable connoisseur, one who selectively picked the best and most important books over the years, and maintained them in perfect condition. Its value will increase through the years, and so will that of the unique memorabilia that the collection holds. I urge you to take the necessary steps to make this collection available to the Aerospace Education Center, to serve as a center of gravity for its research efforts, and as the pattern for its future acquisitions. The students who go to the Center's school and museum both deserve need to have a collection like this to inspire them and to provide them the tools with which to learn. n Calendar No. 222 102D CONGRESS H R 2942 1ST SESSION [Report No. 102-148] MaJing appropriations for the Department of Transportation and related agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1992, and for other purposes. IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES JULY 25 Oegislative day, JULY 8), 1991 Received
read t"wice and referred to the Committee on Appropriations SEPTEMBER 12 Oegislative day, SEPTEMBER 10), 1991 Reported by Mr. LAuTENBERG, v.1th amendments [Omit I.he part struck through a.nd insert the part printed in italic] AN ACT Making appropriations for the Department of Transportation and related agencies for the fiscal year ending September SO, 1992, and for other purposes. 1 Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Represenla- 2 lives of the United Stales of America in Congress assembled, 3 That the following sums are appropriated, out of any money 4 in the Treasu~y not otherwise appropriated, for the Depart- ADMINISTRATION OF AIRPORTS PROGRAM The Committee recommends $41,536,000 and 549 ~itions for this program. The amount recommended represents a $4,616,000 in crease over the fiscal year 1991 level. Under this program, FAA makes airport safety and certification inspections, assures compliance with safety standards, resolves environmental issues, operates the Airports Grants Program, and carries out other activities associated with the development and improvement of the Nation's system of public airports. The Committee has provided the additional 528 personnel requested for airport certification, environmental assessment, and implementation of the passenger facilities charge program. The Committee, however, has deleted $570,000 and two positions associated with airport development and capacity enhancement. These activities are now handled in a separate office, within the operation of air traffic control system activity. Both the Federal Aviation Administration [FAA] and the Nation al Transportation Safety Board [NTSB] have given significant attention to the problem of runway incursions involving aircraft and airside vehicles. The Committee recognizes that it is important for airport operators to implement effective airside vehicle driver training programs in accordance with FAR part 139-329 (airport certification-ground vehicles). The Committee directs that the FAA, in concert with airport tenants and airport operators, assist in developing quality driver training programs. We urge FAA to contract with an organization with appropriate expertise to develop a model airside vehicle driving training program that will allow airports to provide standardized instructions to applicable airport and tenant employees. HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT The Committee recommends $288,625,000 and 1,460 positions for human resource planning and evaluation, and the administration of FAA employee recruitment, compensation, centralized training, employee relations, and labor-management relations. The recommended funding ref.resents an increase of $15,576,000 over the fiscal year 1991 leve . Within the funds provided, the Committee is making available funds for two categories of aviation education financial assistance agreements. First, agreements may be made with up to four aviation magnet secondary schools to be selected at the discretion of the Federal Aviation Administrator. These funds may be used for equipment, books, and other supplies. Second, agreements may be made with up to 57 educational insti tutions, within the United States and its territories and possessions, to be selected at the discretion of the Federal Aviation Administrator, to assist in the operation of affiliated summer camps for secondary school students where aviation education activities will be carried out. Summer camp funds may be used for equipment, books and other supplies, and tuition assistance. The Committee expects the cost of the aviation grant activity to be relative-ly modest, as the program is intended only to provide seed money to help develop and expand aviation education opportunities. The Committee has not included the $2,000,000 provided by the House for the Aviation Resource Consortium in Minnesota. AVIATION AND AEROSPACE TECHNOLOGY LIBRARY AVIATION AND AEROSPACE TECHNOLOGY LIIlRARY The most comprehensive privately-owned technical and historical aviation and aerospace library in the United States is available for purchase.

These include United States Government publications [including the United States Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps, and Army], pamphlets, leaflets, manuscripts and typescripts, brochures, manufacturing specifications, drawings, diagrams, clippings, and similar materials totaling tens of thousands of items. Included is a virtually complete set of 5000 volumes of National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics / National Aeronautics and Space Administration reports dating from 1915. These reports are a primary technical reference resource used throughout the American aerospace industry. Complete NACA / NASA report sets are rare. These files are among the most important reference materials in the library and include the collection of technical materials relating to aerospace engineering formed by the noted aviation author, David Anderton, who was European bureau chief for the prestigious Aviation Week & Space Technology for nearly seven years. Anderton also authored a number of acclaimed NASA technical histories and such titles as North American F-100 Super Sabre and The History of the United States Air Force. Practically every air and spacecraft ever designed--totaling hundreds of thousands of aircraft--is represented in the technical files. These include: Conventional fixed wing designs Sailplanes and gliders Unconventional fixed wing designs Homebuilt planes Helicopters and autogyros Ultralight planes Missiles and rockets Sp:icecraft Pre-Wright Brothers aeronautics Lighter-than-air machines including balloons, dirigibles, blimps, etc. ---- Photographs The photography collection is one of the finest of its kind in the world and totals: 100,000 color and black and white prints of varying size dating from World War I 100,000 color and black and white negatives dating from World War I 65,000 color transparencies dating to 1939 The vast majority of the items in the collection are original, firstgeneration images.

Steele, Superintendent of Schools SUBJECT: Long Range Building Planning Committee The Long Range Building Planning Committee's report, dated April 22, 1991, is an internal report to me. Roman Numerals I-VI of the report merely identify background information as well as a few options that could be explored if we encounter capacity problems in the future. Our present enrollment projections for junior high schools do not indicate any serious capacity problems over the next five (5) years if the proposed construction is approved. The Desegregation Plan allows the district to use portable buildings if we encounter capacity problems. 1 Roman Numeral VII represents recommendations for further discussion with you and, eventually, parties in the desegregation case. Provided is Attachment 1, mentioned on page 4 of the April 22 memorandum. Please review this information by our working session on Monday, April 29 at 5 p.m. Enclosure TO: LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT 810 WEST MARKHAM STREET LITTLE ROCK, AR 72201 April 22, 1991 Ruth Steele, Superintendent FROM: Long Range Building Planning Committee James Jennings, Associate Superintendent Jl.1Brady Gadberry, Labor Relations Specialist '~sterling Ingra~Director, Planning, Research & Eval l(hip Jones, Manager of Support Services SUBJECT: Long Range Building Planning Committee As we have considered the building needs for the District, we have concentrated primarily on selecting sites for new incentive/interdistrict schools, recommended uses of vacant buildings, and secondary capacity. I. School Sites The District currently owns four properties that have potential as sites for new or expanded schools. Discussions have been held with Philander Smith College for a possible fifth site. (a) One site is located at the present Westside campus. The Westside property is only a few blocks from I-630, very accessible to all areas of the City and County, and is adjacent to Arkansas Children's Hospital (ACH). ACH has already expressed enthusiastic support for a school located near them. They also would like to develop plans for joint use of the property so that LRSD and ACH will develop a partnership to serve educational and health needs of children. Preliminary site plans indicate that a two-story building with a capacity of 656 K-6 students and 40 four-year-olds for a total of 696 students can be located on the site. This plan will require efficient use of space but offers the potential for a unique and exiting facility. (b) Rockefeller School is located on a tract of land that is well-suited for expansion. Ample space is ava ilable for a classroom addition to p rovide s e ats for students east of I-30. The s chool is a l so easily acc ess ibl e a nd has f:public\software\word
:,erf\docs\bldcom. wpd Ruth Steel e April 22, 1991 Page 2 been successful in attracting students from all over the City. (c) The current Stephens site is adequate to support a school for approximately 656 K-6 students and 40 four-year-old students for a total of 696 students. The current Stephens building would be replaced with a new structure. Rebuilding Stephens on the current site enables a significant number of black students to attend school without being bussed out of the neighborhood. (d) The site of the former King/Oakhurst School is a physically attractive location situated east of CurranConway Field. The King site is also large enough to accommodate approximately 840 K-6 students and 40 fouryear- olds for a total of 880 students. The King site is also attractive because of its proximity to Curran-Conway Field. The District would seek to enter into a joint-use agreement with the City so that the students will develop interests in a variety of extra-curricular activities. In order to populate a school on the King sit~, it will be necessary to transport some black students from one predominately black attendance zone to another predominately black attendance zone which would increase the burden of bussing for black students. ( e) Philander Smith College has expressed an interest in developing a model teacher education training program and would like to develop a partnership with the District. They have rejected our proposal to build a school on their campus, but we should continue to plan to develop cooperative efforts with Philander Smith. II. Attendance Zone Data - Elementary Schools This section will address the attendance zone changes that are needed to comply with two objectives. First, King and Stephens Schools will be rebuilt in the I-630 Corridor. These schools will become interdistrict schools, and they will have a racial balance of 60 percent black and 40 percent white. The white population in these schools will come primarily from PCSSD. f : public\so ftware\wordperf\docs\b ldcom. wpd Ruth Steele April 22, 1991 Page 3 Second, the District is seeking to reduce the burden of bussing on black students by eliminating as many satellite zones as possible. The fulfillment of this objective is restricted by the minimum black percentage that is required in all elementary area schools. As a result, some schools in west Little Rock must maintain some, if not all, of their satellite zone blocks in order to comply with court-ordered desegregation requirements. These two objectives are interrelated. The construction projects will make it possible for students who live in the attendance zone of incentive/interdistrict schools to attend these schools. These projects will also, to some extent, reduce the burden of bussing on black students. A total of 2190 students currently reside in the attendance zones of the incentive schools. The total capacity of the seven incentive schools is 2405, using a teacher/pupil ratio of 1: 25. Al though 215 vacancies will exist if all of the attendance zone students attend the incentive schools, these vacancies can be filled by students who currently' reside in nearby satellite zones. A total of 281 students currently reside in satellite zones that can be eliminated and still allow the respective attendance zone schools to comply with the minimum desegregation requirements. This situation is complicated by the fact that 200 of the 281 satellite students live near the Stephens/Garland area. Another serious problem involves the Washington Magnet School attendance zone. Washington is the only elementary magnet school with an attendance zone. This zone was drawn initially to accommodate 1050 incentive school students. The school was converted to a magnet school under the Tri-District Desegregation Plan. The District recently received court approval to continue to operate Washington as a magnet school. The attendance zone for Washington is too large to accommodate all of the black students. Washington's capacity is 814. There are 892 black students who reside in the Washington attendance zone. The desegregation requirement for Washington is 60% black. As a result, only 60 percent (488) of the black attendance zone students may attend Washington. The remaining 404 students must be reassigned to non-attendance zone schools. These reassignments usually involve bu:::.::.i ng students from east Little Rock to s outhwest Little Rock. f:public\software\wordperf\docs\bldcom. wpd Ruth . Steele April 22, 1991 Page 4 Most of the 404 students from the Washington attendance zone (355 stud~nts) reside on the northeast edge of the District. The closest elementary schools to these students are Carver Magnet School, Booker Magnet School, and Rockefeller Incentive School. The magnet shadow preferences for Carver and Booker ( 25 percent of the building capacity) are too small to accommodate these students. III. Attendance Zone Data - Secondary Schools In a separate process, a formula has been developed to calculate capacities for secondary schools. It is apparent from the study that very little capacity exists currently at the junior high level and a significant amount of capacity exists in the senior highs. However, as shown in the attached projections (Attachment 1), the District seems to have reached the peak of junior high enrollment in 1990-91 and that enrollment will decrease for a couple of years and then begin to increase again slightly in 1993-94. The projections indicate that senior high enrollment will increase over the next five years but not to the extent that additional capacity is required. However, adjustments to attendance zones may be required in 1992-93 or subsequent years. While educational trends indicate that articulation between sixth to seventh grades, eighth to ninth grades, and ninth to tenth grades is best with a grade structure of K-6, 7-8, and 9-12, it appears that the District should not consider changing its secondary grade structure as a means for solving secondary capacity problems. Junior high enrollment will range from 98% to 102% of capacity without the additional seats for the junior high schools and 91% to 97% with the proposed construction. The enrollment at Forest Heights is expected to exceed the current building capacity in 1993-94 and continue to increase in 1994-95 and 1995-96. In addition to this projection that is based on students currently enrolled in the Little Rock School District, census data reveals that the overall population in west Little Rock will continue to grow. The enrollment will range from 87% to 91% of capacity with the proposed construction. It appears that replacing 4 portable classrooms and adding 2 classrooms will be the maximum ~dvisable construction and will provide additional space for attendance f: public\sof tware\wordpe rf \docs\bl dcom .wpd Ruth Steele April 22, 1991 Page 5 zone students for Southwest Junior High. However, even these additional classrooms will not be totally sufficient to seat adequately the number of students in the attendance zone for Southwest.
