Z''^ i ODM Visits to LRSD Schools, Opening Days 1994 Fulbright Elementary School We were pleased to note that: The students were very well-behaved and friendly. The interior of the school was bright, cheery, and vibrant. Well-designed, attractive teacher-made bulletin boards welcomed students back to school. The PTA funded the construction of a retaining wall to eliminate erosion near the school entrance. We also noted some areas needing attention: The wooden exterior trim needed re-staining and waterproofing. The facade of the building was marred by a large diagonal crack in the mortar, which appeared to be due to settling. The cafeteria was dark, in marked contrast to the other light, bright spaces of the school. Counselors lacked office space. According to the principal, space problems will be solved when a portable building arrives from Williams. This portable classroom will be used to house the GT teacher and the space currently allotted to GT will be designated as the counseling area. Until that time, the counselor must scrounge around for space to hold private sessions.ARKANSAS TIMES APRIL 21,1994 : 771^ At^atii'as REPORTER WHITES NEED NOT APPLY At one LR school, desegregation proves too successful. BY JUDITH M. GALLMAN D *anny Johnson wanted his son lo attend Pulaski Hcighls Junior High School next year, but theres no room for his son at the school because hes while. Thals what Uic school told Johnson on March 21 whenhcwenllopre-rcgisterhis 11- year-old son Jeremy for next year. It seems the Pulaski Heights parents and school officials have l)cen so successful at reciuiting whites that iheirenrollmenl now luns afoul of court-ordered racial guidelines. The result is a supreme irony in a majority black school district that has struggled for years lo hold white parents. Denied admission to Pulaski Heights, Johnson says he is planning to buy a house in Conway and enroll his children tlieie next year, continuing a tiend that has seen Conway explode with whites fleeing Little Rock. Ralph Hoffman, the principal of Pulaski I leights Junior High School, says the school has swung from a junior high that was roughly 65 lo 67 percent black in 1988 lo a school thats 54 lo 5.5 percent black now. Based on pre-rcgisUalion figures for next year, however, the district projects the junior high will be 51.8 jxircent black, which, the district says, mcaiw loo few black students will be enrolled. The projection prompted Dr. Russ Mayo, associate superintendent for desegregation, todraft a memo saying thatstudenlswhoprc- regislercd on or after May 14 will be assigned by the Student Assignment Office. Basically, we will reserve vacant seals for black students while nonblack students will receive alternate assignments, Mayo wrote in the memo. Students who cannot be assigned will be placed on waiting lists. The memo also went lo four elementary schools. Terry. Fulbright. Forest Park and Oller Creek. Mayo said, lrccau.se all will likely slipirclow ihccouit-npirrovcd minimum black enrollment |)crccnlage. Jefferson doesnt meet die minimum but a memo wasnt sent there. The school dish id decision is al variance, however, with the federal courts Office of Desegregation Monitoring. Ann Brown, federal monilor, says the minimum black enrollment should not fall Irelow 40 percent for elementary schools and 51 percent for junior high schools. Mayo agrees on 40 percent for elementary schools, but he insists the minimum for junior highs is 52.5 percent. Moi c importantly, Brown believes die court intended lo set racial guidelines, not quotas. Mayo sees them as a quota from which die district may not stray. Mayo said die freeze is a temporary measure that may be lifted once the district has a clear understanding of next years enroll- inenl. Though the policy ap|>eais Io stale otherwise, Mayo said the disliict does not intend lo exclude white students who are schools aKentlance rightful residenls of a zones, only those who live outside the atlcn- dance zone. But al the same time, he says only that those in Uie zone will be put on the waiting list. He also says the district wants lo l)e sure all students in a school rightfully deserve the assignments. Tin told that it has not been watched as carefully by the Student Assignment Office in die past, Mayo said. "Wecannot continue ignoring the plan or the court. Brown said the disU ict should look at other options beforeexcluding white parents, whose loss could hat ni the racial composition of the whole disU ict. One option is adding portable buildings, although thats impossible for some of the schools and Mayo counters such additions perpetuate dual education. Some school patrons, parents and teachers worry that iJie policy will drive whites to private schools or other cities. There's no such thing as a school too while in Little Rock. one parent said. But the School District has now ruled ollietwise. And the result may be at least two more transfers to Conway. PERCENTAGE OF BLACK STUDENTS ANTICIPATED Pulaski Heights Junior High Schoo! 51.8 percent Terry Elementary School 39.9 percent Fulbright Elementary School 43.1 percent Forest Park Elementary School 39.2 percent Jefferson Elementary School 40.4 percent Otter Creek Elementary School 44.7 percent If pre-registration enrollment figures for the 194-95 school year for the above LitGe Rock schools hold true, these schools could end up with loo few black students, which is why additional white students arent being enrolled temporarily. The percentages indicate what percentage of the student body is expected lo be black. Elementary schools cant have fewer than 40 percent, but the bottom limit for junior highs is in dispute. The district sets the limit at 52.5 percent
the Office of Desegregation monitoring uses 51 percent.I Arkansas Democrat^ (gazette wednesda^ebruary 22 ---- Coovrtflht AI . ..^1 PTA honors principal, teacher at Founders Day luncheon I I Democrat-Gazette Staff A teacher and an elementary school principal were honored as PTA educators of the year by the Parent-Teachers Association in the Little Rock School District this month.

Several McDermott playground. "gnining struck a tree on the 3 LR schools install lightning detectors BY CHRIS REINOLDS Dcmocral-Gazene Staff Writer The Little Rock School District installed lightning detectors in three schooLs Wednesday, becoming the first district in the state to use the new technology. Nine students were injured Sept. 1,1994. when lightning blew apart a tree on the McDermott Elementary School playground. Tlie lightning bolt struck when about Ilk) students were on the playground. It split a tall oak tree about 1(X) feet from the school's southeast comer. McDennott Principal Michael Oliver now has the Sl^Scan light-ning/ storm detector, which can track liglitning bolts up to 40 miles away. Fulbri^t Elementary and Romine Interdistrict Elementary also received the detectors. The device widely used by the U.S. milita^, Secret Sendee and school districts outside Arkansas was introduced in July 1995. Samuel B. Clubb, president of Sky- Scan Technologies, said his company has sold 5,000 to 6,000 detectors at $200 each. Robert Jones, safety and security director, said the district will evaluate the detectors at the end of this school year to decide whether to install more, Tlii.s gives the principals a real tool, Jone.s said. The device is not meant to replace National Weather Senice reports, but to serve as a first warning. Tlie detector is slightly bigger than a cellular phone and can be held or mounted on a wall. The machine beep.s when it detects lightning. A light array indicates the distance of the liglitning on a scale of zero to three miles, three to eight miles, eight to 20 miles and 20 to 40 miles. The average liglitning stroke is 6 miles long and most thunderstorms move at 25 mph, Clubb said. "Once a tliunderstomi is within 10 miles, you're in imminent danger, Clubb said, And once you hear it, you've already been at risk for some time. .Since 1990, lightning has killed six people and injured 59 in iVr-kansas, said Renee Fair, National Weather Service warning coordination meteorologist. Fair declined to comment on tlie effectiveness of the new lightning detector. Teachers and students were not allowed to comment on the device at McDermott because two families whose children were hospitalized have sued the district. Four McDermott pupils were hospitalized in the 1994 lightning strike: five other students were treated at the hospital and released. Oliver and teacher Nancy Downing were named as defendants in the lawsuit filed in Pulaski County Circuit Court last year. Five unnamed teachers and aides, the Little Rock School District the school board and the United National Insurance Co. also are defendants. The lawsuit alleges that "more than 20 minutes prior to the lightning strike. Hashes of lightning and sounds of thunder were ob-served in the McDermott Elenien-taiy School area.
