He states that the Littie Rock School District (LRSD) has serious concerns and that in the next few days. After repeated telephone calls to LRSD attorneys and staff regarding those concerns, we have to date received no specifics from anyone on this issue. We believe the relationship between the school districts in Pulaski County is critical t.o the successful implementation of t-h e-- --d--e--s-e-ag r-eGg-a--t-io--n- plans. The Settlement Agreernent was entered in good faith by the parties, and I believe its provisions should e implemented.

Your request was based on the pooling provision in e Desegregation Settlement Agreement. ' Recently, I met with several members of our staff and two of our attorneys, Chris Heller and Jerry Malone, to review this matter. The Desegregation Settlement A^eement was negotiated in good faith, and we would like to continue along those lines. However, you must remember there are numerous components of this provision. For the parties to deal with a specific component in isolation appears to minimize the intent and spirit of the pooling provision. We have some serious concerns regarding the financial and educational impact of this request on our students. Therefore, I have directed our attorneys to consult with you and your attorneys regarding all of the components of the pooling provision in lieu of merely focusing on one area of the agreemenT, I agree with you that it is best when the parties can reach accord without outside mvolvement. Our attorneys will make contact within the next few days to discuss our concerns.

INTERVENORS RESPONSE AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT OF JOSHUA, LRSD AND PCSSD'S RESPONSE TO MOTION FOR STAY PENDING APPEAL AND CROSS-MOTION FOR COMPLIANCE Statement of Facts The responding parties do not dispute the statement of facts set forth by the State and ADE. Argument A casual reader of the State's motion for stay would likely form the impression that a stay is sought to suspend collection of a \"mere money judgment\" that has arisen in a routine contract dispute. However, the \"status quo II which the State seeks to FEB 2 4 iAC preserve is a far different thing than that which might be generated between a lender and a borrower who have a dispute concerning the repayment of a note. The unique context of the present dispute arises in the setting of the State, as an adjudicated violator of the Constitution, now having been found guilty of violating a settlement agreement which it promised to uphold as well as state law that it is charged with administering. Indeed, a core portion of the 11 status quo tl which the State seeks to preserve includes judicial findings that the State: \"...is deliberately discriminating against the Districts with respect to the provision of loss funding for a decline in enrollment related to the loss of M-to-M students, H and that the Arkansas Department of Education \"ha determined to discriminate against the three Pulaski County Districts with respect to M-to-M students. II Further, that the State, through the Arkansas Public School Computer Network (APSCN), in pursuing a state-wide computer network system, offered these three Districts implementation options that were \"meaningless, worthless choices. designed for rejection on the part of the three Districts, . tl and that this activity was in violation of the Settlement Agreement. Moreover, the order for which the state now seeks a stay is replete with mandates and injunctive admonitions to recalculate and restore funds due the three Districts dating back to the 1992-93 school year. The State knows as well as any other party to this case the precarious financial condition of these Districts and the recent history of all three in pursuing oftentimes radical and controversial budget cuts necessary for them to remain financially solvent. It thus becomes particularly pernicious for the State to seek a delay in compliance with the 2order of this Court, particularly when its conduct has been so egregious, Recouproent It is ludicrous for the State to compare its ability to recoup monies that should be paid to these three Districts to the situation of the government's inability to recoup payments made to welfare recipients. (See State's brief at page 5). First, in contrast to welfare recipients, the State absolutely controls the flow of millions of dollars a year to these three school Districts and will remain in that position long after the resolution of any appeal in this case. The State is absolutely protected in its ability to recoup any funds it is ordered to pay now. Second, there are only three school districts for which calculations must be paid and to which money must be paid. The burden of paying the Districts and, if necessary, recouping the payments is extremely small compared to the burden of paying hundreds or thousands of welfare recipients. Further, in the unique circumstances of this case. it is appropriate for the District Court to assess the prospects for the likelihood of success of the State's appeal and to take that into account in determining whether to order a stay or whether to order the State to make immediate payment to the Districts.' 'On appeal, the State has the burden of proving both that the District Court abused its discretion in its interpretation of the settlement agreement or was II clearly erroneous fl at its factual findings, including those of deliberate in arriving discrimination against the three districts. These parties submit 3These parties submit that not only should the Court deny the State's stay request out of hand, but that the Court should exercise its equitable and legal authority to order the State to make the calculations it was ordered to make in the Order of January 13, 1995 and to remit the appropriate sums to these three Districts by March 15, 1995. !

NO. LR-C-82-866 PULASKI COUNTY SPECIAL SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 1, ET AL. DEFENDANTS MRS. LORENE JOSHUA, ET AL. INTERVENORS KATHERINE KNIGHT, ET AL. INTERVENORS PCSSD RESPONSE TO LRSD PRETRIAL INFORMATION CONCERNING POOLING OF M-TQ-M FUNDS The PCSSD Offers the following response to the pooling submission submitted by ths LRSD. As explained below, many of the contentions made by the LRSD are simply flat wrong. First, LRSD contends that the pooling provisions create a pool of money \"for the education of all interdistrict school students.\" This leaves the impression that the pooled money is sufficient, on a per student basis, to fund the education of aii the intardistrict school students. However, let us remember that at any particular intardistrict school, the M-to-M students cannot comprise more than 49.99% of the student body. To exceed that number would disqualify the school for M-to-M transfer. Accordingly, at most, the pooled money might provide something slightly more than one-half of the money necessary to educate all the interdistrict school students since the host district will have to fund the shortfall out of its own general revenues.09x07/95 12:53 WRIGHT, LINDSEY, \u0026amp; JENNINGS NO.232 P003/010 Second, the LRSD contends that these provisions \"were intended to require the same expenditure per student for each interdistrict school student. Expenditure per student does not equate to equalizing instructional budgets. Instructional budgets, whatever they may be determined to be by this Court, are necessarily something less than expenditures per student, the latter of which encompasses and allocates a broad array of non-instruotional coats including central administration, transportation, construction and maintenance and debt service. Indeed, after making this assertion, LRSD recognizes, in the next paragraph on page 2 of its submission, that expenditure per student is something different than instructional budgets. Third, the LRSD contends \"if not for the agreement to equalize budgets, the amount spent by PCSSD to educate LRSD M-to- M transfer students would be significantly lower than the amount spent by LRSD to educate PCSSD transfer students.\" Says who? This existential leap of reasoning cannot be supported by any facts. The only significance to the $3600 and $2900 is the fact that when the M-to-M agreement was drafted in 1986, these were the sums each District spent on average in its regular schools. I The Court will recall the charts (attached as Exhibits 10 and 11) prepared by the ODM several months ago which were prompted by an analysis of double funding at the incentive schools. The Court will recall that the highest funded incentive school spent almost $9,000 per student while the lowest funded area school spent just over $2,000 per student. Thus, since the advent of double funding for the incentive schools, LRSD*8 overall average expenditure per student has been consistently skewed and overstated because the incentive school expenditures 2 B09/07/95 12:53 WRIGHT, LINDSEY, 8. JENNINGS NO. 282 P004/010 There were no interdistrict schools then, there were no interdistrict school programs than, and there were no instructional budgets for interdistrict schools. Since the PCSSD has programs and themes at its interdistrict schools that it does not have in its regular schools, it follows that the instructional programs cost more at those schools than at its regular schools. In what may amount to simply transcription errors, the LRSD has suggested a formula at page 3 which is mathematically impossible to implement. In subparagraph (c), the LRSD first proposes that the pooled funds should be divided by the total number of M-to-M transfer students attending interdistrict schools to calculate an amount per student. However, they then suggest that the amount per student as determined be multiplied by the number of students attending the school. Because the number of students attending the interdistrict schools is massively in excess of the number of M-to-M students attending those schools, this formula would outstrip the pool by several multiples. At page 4 of its submission, the LRSD quotes from a Don Stewart to Bobby Lester memo that: It has been observed that equalizing the instructional budgets of all Interdistrict Schools, as called for in the agreement, would not be practical and in fact might cause both districts to make major changes in the instructional programs of these schools solely for the purposes of this agreement rather than for instructional or desegregation reasons. are included to calculate its district-wide average. 309/07/95 12:54 URISHT, LINDSEY. 8. JENNINGS NO. 282 8005/010 Perhaps unbeknownst to the present LRSD administration, the \"observer\" referred to in the Stewart memo is Chip Jonas, the former manager of support services for the Little Rock School District. It was he, not someone from the PCSSD, who \"observed\" that equalizing instructional budgets would not be practical and might cause major changes in the instructional programs solely to comply with the agreement rather than for instructional or desegregation reasons. As the PCSSD observed in its own submission, it agreed to this at the suggestion of the LRSD. Also at page 4, the LRSD sets forth its belief: \"[T]hat it has expended and continues to expand (sic) more money per student to educate PCSSD students in its interdistrict schools than PCSSD spends per student to educate LRSD students and (sic) PCSSD interdistrict schools.\" Nowhere in its submissions to date has the LRSD made any demonstration in support of its \"belief\". In fact, the PCSSD intends to offer proof at the hearing that it is the PCSSD which has the higher instructional budgets in its interdistrict schools. (See Exhibit 9 attached.) As to LRSD's belated counter-claim for $500,000, suffice it to say that LRSD articulates no cognizable legal reason why the PCSSD should ever have to pay the LRSD $.500,000 regardless of which settlement provisions have or may not have been met. ^Because Mr. Jones was, at the time, the Chief Financial Officer of the LRSD, his request, which was acceded to by the PCSSD, constitutes a novation or reformation of the original contract which is binding on the LRSD. 4I 09/07/95 12:55 WRIGHT, LINDSEY, a JENNINGS NO.282 P006/010 Indeed, on the page preceding the counterclaim, the LRSD graciously stated\nLRSD does not believe their (sic) should be any redistribution of the state funds paid to LRSD and PCSSD for M-to-M transfer students who attend the interdistrict schools. The process of desegregation and continued cooperation among the parties would not be advanced by an effort by LRSD to recover the amount of any under-funding of its M-to-M transfer students... Enforcement of the pooling provision as originally proposed by the PCSSD will enhance the desegregation process because it will continue the incentive for both parties to encourage County students to transfer to the LRSD interdistrict schools since that process will both increase the size of the pool and narrow or eliminate the distribution presently owed the PCSSD. To sustain the position of the LRSD would be to discourage further interdistrict movement to the detriment of the ultimate desegregation goals. The position urged by the PCSSD is in fact a reflection of the original incentives built into the M-to-M stipulation. The more students the PCSSD can recruit the greater will be its share of the redistributed pool. This will by itself advance the desegregation goals of all of the parties. 509/07/95 12:56 WRIGHT, LINDSEY, 8. JENNINGS NO. 282 P007/010 The PCSSD motion should be granted.

AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW REGARDING THE POOLING AGREEMENT INTRODUCTION This action concerns implementation of the September 1989 Settlement Agreement (\"Settlement Agreement\") in the above-styled case. The Pulaski County Special School District (\"PCSSD\") moved for an order requiring the Little Rock School District (\"LRSD\") to pay PCSSD $167,113.00 in majority-to-minority (\"M-to-M\") payments received by LRSD from the State of Arkansas based on Section II, Paragraph O of the Settlement Agreement (the \"Pooling Agreement\"). LRSD responded to PCSSD's motion alleging that LRSD was released from its pooling obligations by PCSSD's anticipatory breach. Based on the party's pleadings, this Court ruled that. even assuming PCSSD was in breach, the clauses of the Pooling Agreement at issue were unrelated and ordered LRSD to pay PCSSD $167,113.00. LRSD appealed. On appeal, the Eighth Circuit vacated this Court's order and directed it to \"take evidence regarding the purposes of the clausesat issue.\" See Little Rock School District v. Pulaski County Special School District, 60 F.3d 435, 436 (Sth Cir. 1995).

Id., at 436-37. Following hearings during which both parties presented evidence. this Court makes the following findings of fact and conclusions of law as required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 52. Any other statement in this opinion which may be deemed a finding of fact is also adopted as such. FINDINGS OF FACT A. Background. 1. The Pooling Agreement resolved two disputes between LRSD and PCSSD. The first dispute concerned $2 million to be paid by the State of Arkansas as a part of the Settlement Agreement. The original version of the Settlement Agreement contained formulas by which the State would make payments to LRSD and PCSSD. The final version of the Settlement Agreement converted those formulas to a fixed stream of payments. This conversion resulted in $2 million in State settlement funds to which both LRSD and PCSSD claimed entitlement. 23 . The second dispute related to M-to-M payments from the State. The M-to-M Stipulation provides, \"The state shall pay the costs for full-time equivalent students who have been transferred to the host district. tl [Docket No. 706]. PCSSD argued that this provision required the State to pay the host district the home district's average per student cost. This would have increased the amount of M-to-M payments to PCSSD because LRSD's average per student cost was greater than PCSSD's. 4. PCSSD's argument was inconsistent with the State's interpretation of the M-to-M Stipulation and its practice of paying the host district its average per student cost. [Transcript, v. I*, p. 114-15\nTranscript, v. II, p. 125]. Dr. Donald Stewart, PCSSD's Chief Financial Officer, testified: I supported Mr. Sam Jones' . . argument that we really should be receiving [LRSD's] average cost for educating a student because  based on the theory  well, I'm not sure based on what. would have given us more money. It was a good argument because it [Transcript, v. I, p. 115].^ 5. The Pooling Agreement provides: 1) In any application for aid pursuant to Section 6 of *The transcript of the September 9, 1995, hearing is cited as volume I, and the transcript of the December 14, 1995, hearing is cited as volume II. ^Dr. Stewart later offered as a basis for PCSSD's argument that LRSD students are more expensive to educate. However, Dr. Stewart admitted that he was not aware of any evidence that LRSD M-to-M transfer students would be more expensive to educate than PCSSD students. [Transcript, v. II, p. 123]. Dr. Stewart further admitted that even assuming PCSSD was spending a little more on LRSD M-to-M transfer students, PCSSD was not spending as much per student as LRSD. [Transcript, v. II, p. 124]. 3Act 24 of the 1989 Regular Session of the Arkansas General Assembly, the receiving district for M to M students may include in such application any M to M students it hosts who are eligible for participation pursuant to section 6(A) of said Act. 2) The State shall continue to make payments under the August 26, 1986 M to M stipulation so that the host district receives its average cost of educating a student for each M to M transfer student enrolled in the host district. 3) When at least one Interdistrict School is operating in LRSD and PCSSD, all M to M payments generated by Interdistrict School students paid by the State to LRSD and PCSSD (including payment to each district as sending district and receiving district), except transportation payments, will be pooled for the education of all Interdistrict School students. The instructional budgets of the Interdistrict Schools will be equalized. This provision does not change each district's obligation to construct and maintain the Interdistrict Schools within its boundaries. The State payments for M to M students not enrolled in Interdistrict Schools will continue in accordance with paragraph (2) above. 4) Beginning the first year an Interdistrict School is operating in LRSD and PCSSD, PCSSD will contribute $200,000 per year for five years to the pool of funds to be used by both districts Schools. to operate Interdistrict [Settlement Agreement  2, 5 0]. 6. Both LRSD (Romine and Washington) and PCSSD (Baker) had interdistrict schools operating in the 1991-92 school year. [Transcript, v. I, p. 97]. B. Was the Pooling Agreement a means to facilitate equalization? 7. Although PCSSD originally contended that the sentences in paragraph three of the Pooling Agreement concerning pooling and equalization were unrelated and \"simply happen to appear in the same section of the Settlement Agreement,\" [Docket No. 2101], PCSSD's own witnesses testified at trial that the provisions are 4related. Dr. Stewart testified: Q: resolve And section \"O\" is all part of one agreement made to settlement? those issues that arose after the March A. That is correct. Q. And the component related to each other? parts of section \"O\" are all A. Yes. [Transcript, v. II, p. 11]. PCSSD Superintendent Bobby Lester's testimony was identical to that of Dr. Stewart. [Lester Depo., p. The fact that pooling and equalization are described in consecutive sentences in the same paragraph of the Pooling 6] . 8. Agreement also indicates that the provisions are related. This conclusion is further supported by the fact that the final sentence in that paragraph begins, \"This provision . . II referring to the entire paragraph. [Settlement Agreement  II, 5 0(3)]. 9. How the provisions are related was explained by Dr. Ruth Steele who was LRSD Superintendent from July of 1989 through June 30, 1992, [Steele Depo., p. 4], and who was involved in negotiating the Pooling Agreement. [S^ Steele Depo., p. 6-7]. Dr. Steele testified that the funds in the pool were to II be used for the education of students attending the interdistrict schools\" and that \"the amount that would be spent would be equalized so that no students from either district would be penalized in terms of a per pupil expenditure . . II [Steele Depo., p. 7]. 10. PCSSD came forward with no evidence which contradicted the testimony of Dr. Steele. Even assuming such evidence exists. 5this Court finds Dr. Steele's testimony to be credible and gives it substantial weight. Accordingly, this Court finds that the Pooling Agreement was a means to facilitate equalization. B. What is meant by the term \"equalize\"? 11. Both LRSD and PCSSD agree (and this Court finds) that the term \"equalize\" means an equal per pupil expenditure. 12. The only contemporaneous explanation of the meaning of the Pooling Agreement was made by Chris Heller, Attorney for LRSD, during hearings before Special Master Aubrey McCutcheon on September 26 and 27, 1989. [Transcript, v. I, p. 124\nTranscript V. II, p. 14]. In explaining the Pooling Agreement to the Special Master, Heller stated: Another issue that has been resolved is that once interdistrict schools are operating in both Little Rock and Pulaski County, the state funding generated by those interdistrict[] students'* would be pooled and the operation budgets for those two schools or whatever number of schools would be interdistrict students, equalized so whether attending school that in Pulaski County or Little Rock, would have the same amount spent for their education. [Transcript, v. II, p. 13 (emphasis supplied)]. 13. Dr. Stewart agreed that the Pooling Agreement, as explained by Heller, required an equal per pupil expenditure: Q. Now, if we assume that equalizing instructional At these hearings, the parties were seeking approval of the Settlement Agreement, and the Special Master was attempting to determine whether there was, in fact, an agreement among the parties. [Transcript, v. II, p. 12]. lRSD and PCSSD agree that only M-to-M payments are to be pooled and not all state funding generated by interdistrict school students. [Transcript, v. II, p. 43-44]. 6budgets means that the same amount is going to be spent for the education of students, whether they go to school in the Pulaski County School District or the Little Rock School District, doesn't that mean you would have to build your budget based on an agreed upon equal per student expenditure? A. Under that assumption, yes. * * * Q. In order to have the same amount spent for their education, don't you have to develop a budget based on an equal per pupil expenditure? A. Technically, yes. [Transcript, V. II/ P- 43-44]. Dr. Stewart admitted that the \"assumption\" made in the above question was exactly what Heller reported to the Special Master was the intent of the Pooling Agreement. [Transcript, V. 11/ P- 43-44]. Dr. Stewart also admitted that a budget can be prepared based on a predetermined per pupil amount. [Transcript, V. II, P- 39] . An interdistrict school's budget could then be calculated by multiplying the number of students by the established per pupil budget. [Transcript, v. II, p. 44-45]. 14. The parties agree that the funds from the pool should be distributed on a per student basis but disagree as to which students should be counted for the purpose of distribution. r See Transcript, v. II, p. 41-42]. PCSSD contends that only M-to-M transfer students attending interdistrict schools should be considered. LRSD argues that all interdistrict school students should be considered. The Pooling Agreement is unambiguous in this regard. It provides. \"[A]11 M-to-M payments generated by Interdistrict School students . will be pooled for the 7education of all Interdistrict School students.\" [Settlement Agreement  II, 1 0(3) (emphasis supplied)]. Thus, the plain language of the Pooling Agreement states that the relevant student population for distribution of the pool is \"all Interdistrict School Students. 15. Even assuming the Pooling Agreement to be ambiguous in this regard, the evidence presented a trial further supports the conclusion that the parties intended the pool to be distributed based on the total number of interdistrict school students. 16. In addition to resolving the disputes noted above, the Pooling Agreement served two additional purposes. First, both districts were concerned that the M-to-M Stipulation would work to the advantage of the other and viewed pooling as a hedge against this possibility. [Transcript, v. I, p. 10, 11 and 2 0\nLester Depo., p. 7]. Second, LRSD was concerned that LRSD students n attending PCSSD interdistrict schools would not have resources spent for their education equivalent to what would be spent on the students if they remained in LRSD. At the time of the agreement. LRSD was spending on average $800.00 to $900.00 more per student than PCSSD. [Transcript, v. I, p. 10]. 17. Dr. Steele testified: [M]y concern was always that you make sure that the students who move from our district to Pulaski County are not shortchanged in terms of any per pupil expenditure that [would be] spent for them\nand that the pattern of ^John Walker, attorney for the Joshua Intervenors, shared LRSD'S concern because it would be his clients transferring from LRSD to PCSSD. [Transcript, v. I, p. 25-26]. 8funding for the interdistrict schools would be similar to that of the magnet schools, not necessarily in terms of the exact amount [spent per pupil], but that there would be an amount identified that would be spent for the students who attended those schools. [Steele Depo., p. 11]. Dr. Steele explained that the Pooling Agreement contemplated that II [tjhere would be a per pupil amount established\" to equalize funding for the education of \"the total student population in the interdistrict school.\" [Steele Depo., p. 9 (emphasis supplied)\nsee also Steele Depo, p. 15-16 and 23]. 18. Similarly, Earl Jones, who was LRSD Manager of Support Services from July of 1989 through June of 1991 and who was also present during the negotiation of the Pooling Agreement, [Transcript, v. II, p. 156 and 158], testified that the Pooling Agreement contemplated that LRSD and PCSSD would agree to a per pupil budget for all interdistrict school students. [Transcript, V. II, p. 159]. Jones explained that the requirement that the budgets of the interdistrict schools be equalized was important to LRSD because LRSD was concerned that students would not \"enjoy the same type education\" in PCSSD interdistrict schools and that equalization was a means \"to help guarantee that that [would] happen. II [Transcript, V. II/ P- 178] . Jones noted that the ^Similarly, Dr. Steele testified that the funds in the pool were to \"be used for the education of students attending the interdistrict schools\" and that \"the amount that would be spent would be equalized so that no students from either district would be penalized in terms of a per pupil expenditure . . II Depo., p. 7]. [Steele Dr. Steele stated that the Pooling Agreement was \"based on the magnet school model. II Steele Depo., p. 8-9]. [Steele Depo., p. 7\nsee also Finally, Dr. Steele testified that PCSSD's interpretation of the Pooling Agreement was inconsistent with the intent of the parties. [Steele Depo., p. 15 and 16.] 9process by which the per pupil budget for the original magnet schools was established \"could easily be used II to implement the Pooling Agreement. [Transcript, v. II, p. 159]. 19. PCSSD presented no evidence that the intent of the Pooling Agreement was to distribute the pool based on the number of M-to-M students in interdistrict schools. To the contrary, in a memo to Lester dated September 2, 1992, Dr. Stewart stated: I would suggest that the proper procedure [to implement the Pooling Agreement] would be to pool all funds. including PCSSD's $200,000.00 as called for in the agreement and then to divide these funds equally based on the number of students actually enrolled (three-quarter averaqe daily membership) in all Interdistrict Schools. [Exhibit 343 (emphasis supplied)\nTranscript, v. I, p. 29]. With regard to Dr. Stewart's memo, Lester testified: Q. So if you're going to implement what Dr. Stewart said in [his September 2, 1992] memo, then we would take the total pool of M to M funds. plus the county's $200,000 and divide by the total number of interdistrict school students, third quarter enrollment, right? A. Right. [Lester Depo., p. 24 (emphasis supplied)]. Dr. Stewart agreed that his methodology fails to take into account two requirements of the Pooling Agreement: (1) that instructional budgets be equalized. and (2) that the funds be pooled for the benefit of all interdistrict school students. [Transcript, v. II, p. 42-43]. On the contrary. Dr. Stewart acknowledged that the interpretation of the Pooling Agreement urged by LRSD is entirely consistent with the language of the agreement. [Transcript, v. II, p. 44-45]. 20. On the bottom half of Exhibit 382, Dr. Stewart demonstrated the results if the pool was divided based on the total 10number of interdistrict school students. Dr. Stewart conceded that the methodology applied on the bottom half of Exhibit 382 was the only methodology which complied with the Pooling Agreement: Q. The point is, Doctor Stewart, that the only way we have talked about in court today or last time to implement the language in Section \"O\" is the way that is set forth on the bottom half of Court's exhibit 382? A. I would agree with that. [Transcript, v. II, p. 140]. 21. PCSSD argues that dividing the pool based only on the number of M-to-M students would create an incentive for the districts to recruit M-to-M transfers from the other district so they could receive a greater proportion of the pool. There are two flaws in PCSSD's argument. First, it fails to take into account the concomitant obligation of the districts to recruit their own students to become M-to-M transfers. g-q-, LRSD r See. Desegregation Plan, p. 144 (\"The NLRSD and PCSSD will actively recruit students who are eligible for M-to-M transfers.\")\nsee also Transcript, v. II, p. 143]. 22. Although dividing the pool based on the number of M-to-M Jones agreed that the methodology employed on the bottom half of Exhibit 382 correctly distributes funds from the pool. [Transcript V. II, p. 141]. Although PCSSD has more M-to-M transfers in its interdistrict schools, PCSSD came forward with no evidence that LRSD has not aggressively recruited PCSSD students to attend LRSD interdistrict schools. [S^ Transcript, v. II, p. 145 and 149]. PCSSD had a greater incentive than LRSD to send M-to-M transfer students under the M-to-M stipulation before the Pooling Agreement because it had a higher table rate, p. 40]. [Transcript, v. II, 11students would create an financial incentive for the districts to recruit students from the other district, it would create a financial disincentive for the districts to recruit their own students. 10 [Transcript, v, II, p. 67]. Dr. Stewart testified: Q. Under your original proposal for distributing funds from the pool [based on the number of M-to-M students in interdistrict schools], isn't there financial disincentive for Pulaski County to send students to Little Rock interdistrict schools? A. Well, yeah, I think we testified to that. I think we submitted evidence at the earlier hearing to that effect. [Transcript, v. II, p. 67]. Therefore, there is no net benefit to recruitment by dividing the pool based on only M-to-M students. [See Transcript, v. II, p. 172]. 23. Second, PCSSD's argument fails to recognize that the districts have limited control over parents' decisions to send children to an interdistrict school as an M-to-M transfer. r See Transcript, v. II, p. 172]. The record in this case is replete a with evidence of \"white flight.\" As sad as it may be, there are still white parents who refuse to send their children to schools where white students are not a substantial majority. It would be unfair to interpret the Pooling Agreement in such a manner as to penalize LRSD because lingering racial prejudice makes it more difficult for it to recruit white PCSSD students than it is for 'Dr. Stewart testified that the M-to-M stipulation was designed to be an incentive to the sending district to recruit its own students to become M-to-M transfers. [Transcript, v. I, p. 116] . Thus, to the extent PCSSD's interpretation creates a disincentive, it is inconsistent with the intent of the M to M stipulation. 12PCSSD to recruit African-American LRSD students seeking an integrated education. 24. PCSSD also argues that LRSD agreed that funds in the pool should be divided based on M-to-M students rather than all interdistrict school students. Dr. Stewart testified that an LRSD employee told him that LRSD was going to send PCSSD a check based on calculations prepared by Stewart which divided the fund based on M-to-M students. [Transcript, V. I, p. 32]. However, subsequent correspondence between LRSD and PCSSD demonstrates that an agreement was never reached. Following the June, 1993 meeting during which Dr. Stewart claims he was told that LRSD would send PCSSD check. Dr. Stewart wrote LRSD and stated. \"[I]f an a acceptable solution is not reached soon, we will have no choice but to involve the Office of Desegregation Monitoring and the Court. [Exhibit 350] Thus, Stewart acknowledged that no agreement had been reached. LRSD's formal response'* to PCSSD's demand was contained in LRSD Superintendent Dr. Henry Williams' October 20, 1993, letter to PCSSD. [Exhibit 380]. In that letter. Dr. Williams refused to pay PCSSD because PCSSD had failed to take into account all of the provisions of the Pooling Agreement. [Exhibit 380] . Accordingly, this Court finds that LRSD never agreed that the pool should be divided based on the number of M-to-M students. 25. Therefore, this Court finds that the funds in the pool '*Dr. Stewart initially testified that PCSSD never received and response from LRSD. [Transcript, v. I, p. 87]. stipulated that Dr. Stewart's testimony was erroneous. [Transcript, v. II, p. 51]. PCSSD later 13should be divided based on the total number of students in interdistrict schools. To determine the total number of students in interdistrict schools, this Court must decide when LRSD's Washington Elementary became an interdistrict school. 26. Under the Tri-District Plan, Washington Elementary was an interdistrict magnet school. [Docket No. 1291]. By stipulation dated February 12, 1991, it was agreed that Washington would continue to operate in this capacity. [Docket No. 1434]. The LRSD Desegregation Plan adopted April 29, 1992, provided that Washington would continue to be operated consistent with the \"Interdistrict H Plan. [LRSD Desegregation Plan, p. 144]. Accordingly, this Court assigned Washington the racial balance requirements of an interdistrict school in its May 1, 1992 Order approving the LRSD Desegregation Plan. [Docket No. 1587]. In recognition of the fact that Washington was operating as an interdistrict school. this Court released LRSD from it obligation to build Stephens Interdistrict School. [Docket No. 2351]. Hence, Washington has been an interdistrict school since at least the 1991-92 school year. and Washington's students should be considered in distributing the pool. 27. Therefore, this Court finds the funds in the pool should be distributed based on the total number of interdistrict school students. In determining each district's distribution from the pool, the total pool should be divided by the total number of interdistrict school students to determine a per student amount. This per student amount should then be multiplied by each 14district's total number of interdistrict school students such that each district receives funds from the pool equivalent to its proportion of the total number of interdistrict school students. D. Whether the \"instructional budgets\" of interdistrict schools are equalized? 28, To determine whether the II instructional budgets\" of the interdistrict schools have been equalized, this Court must first decide what constitutes an \"instructional budget. II \"Instructional budget\" is not a term of art in school finance, and it is not expressly defined in the Settlement Agreement. 29. With regard to the meaning of the phrase II instructional budget. II Dr. Stewart testified. II I don't know where the language came from[\n] I don't know what it meant then, and I don't know what it means now. II [Transcript, v. II, p. 17\nsee also Transcript, v. P- 15-16] Dr. Stewart acknowledged that \"[r]easonable 11/ people should be able to reach a reasonable decision about what it means. II [Transcript, v.II, p. 46]. Dr. Stewart agreed that once It instructional budget\" is defined, there was no reason a per pupil amount could not be established for interdistrict school students: Q. Now, however[] we agreed to define \"instructional budget\", there is no reason we couldn't determine per student amount to agree and be spent for instructional budgets at each interdistrict school, is there? A. No. a [Transcript, v. II, p. 50-51]. '^Similarly, Lester testified he had no recollection of why the clause regarding equalizing instructional budgets was in the Pooling Agreement. [Lester Depo., p. 23]. 1530. There appears to be no dispute that the \"instructional budget\" does not include transportation costs and capital costs. [S^ Steele Depo., p. 12 and 13]. The language of the Pooling Agreement suggests that the phrase \"instructional budget\" was intended to exclude these costs. Transportation money received by the districts is specifically excluded from the pool. [Settlement Agreement,  II, 0(3)]. Because transportation funds are not part of the pool, it follows that transportation costs should not be included in the \"instructional budget.\" Similarly, the Pooling Agreement provides that it \"does not change each district's obligation to construct and maintain the Interdistrict Schools in its boundaries. [Settlement Agreement,  II, 5 O (3)]. Because H the Pooling Agreement has no impact on the districts' obligations to make capital expenditures, it follows that those costs should not be included in the II instructional budget.\" 31. PCSSD argues that personnel should not be included as part of the \"instructional budget\" because the per pupil cost of personnel varies from school to school.* [Transcript, v. I, p. 57- 58\nsee Lester Depo., P- 15]. In negotiating the Pooling Agreement, LRSD recognized that it would not guarantee that 'Dr. Stewart also identified as a problem any cost which will be incurred by a school regardless of the number of students in a building, [Transcript, v. I, p. 73]\nthe cost of ancillary programs such as music and physical education\nand the cost of specialty programs. [Transcript, v. I, p. 75-76]. As with personnel costs. there is no way to account for the variation in fixed cost among schools. With regard to ancillary and specialty programs. equalization was intended to insure (at least to some degree) that these type programs in PCSSD interdistrict school were equivalent to the programs available in LRSD interdistrict schools. 16exactly the same amount of money would be spent for the education of every interdistrict school student. Even so, LRSD viewed equalization as means \"to help guarantee that that [would] a happen. If [Transcript, v. II, p. 178]. The parties may disagree as to the extent that equalization will achieve LRSD's objective, but that is no basis for this Court to deny LRSD the benefit of its agreement. 32. Although PCSSD argues that personnel should not be included in the \"instructional budget,\" Lester testified that \"teachers II are an instructional cost. [Lester Depo, p. 12]. Lester further testified that PCSSD's largest instructional expense was personnel. [Lester Depo., p. 19]. Likewise, LRSD's largest instructional expense is personnel. If the parties had intended to exclude the largest instructional expense from the \"instructional budget,\" they would have said so. Therefore, this Court finds that \"instructional budget\" includes all costs incurred at interdistrict schools except transportation costs and capital costs. [S^ Steele Depo., p. 12]. 33. Having defined \"instructional budget\" to include all costs except transportation and capital costs, this Court must now determine whether the II instructional budgets II of the interdistrict schools have been equalized. The answer to this question is no. **PCSSD also argues that the amount of money spent has little relationship to the quality of education provided. [Transcript, v. II, p. 93]. Although to some extent this may be true, this Court and the Eighth Circuit have recognized in the context of the incentive schools that the amount of money spent has a direct relationship to the type of educational services being provided. 1734. LRSD contends that the Pooling Agreement contemplated that a per pupil amount would be established for the \"instructional budget\" at all interdistrict schools by a process analogous to the magnet school model. [Steele Depo., p. 7-8, 8-9 and 11\nTranscript V. II, p. 159]. PCSSD has not proposed a methodology to implement the requirement of the Pooling Agreement that instructional budgets be equalized. [Transcript, v. II, p. 42]. Lester testified that at the time the Pooling Agreement was reached the magnet school model was the only model for the districts to pool funds to operate the interdistrict schools. [Lester Depo., p. 26]. Therefore, this Court finds that the Pooling Agreement contemplated that a per pupil amount would be established for the \"instructional budget\" at all interdistrict schools by a process analogous to the magnet school model. This Court directs the parties to agree on a per pupil instructional budget for all interdistrict schools for the 1996-97 school year so that instructional budgets of the interdistrict schools will be equalized beginning that school year. 35. Although the instructional budgets of the interdistrict schools have not been \"equalized. II PCSSD remains obligated to LRSD for its proportion of the pool. LRSD's overall average per pupil expenditures now exceed and always have exceeded that of PCSSD, [S^ Exhibit 345\nTranscript, v. I, p. 43\nand, Lester Depo., p. 13], and LRSD on average spends more per pupil than PCSSD in its interdistrict schools. [Transcript, v. II, p. 119\nSee Exhibit 381] . Because LRSD has spent more than PCSSD in its interdistrict schools. this Court finds that LRSD should not be barred from 18recovering under the Pooling Agreement based on the failure to \"equalize. II E. Why is there no central account into which pooled moneys are deposited? 36. No central account was ever established, apparently, because no agreement was ever reached with regard to equalizing instructional budgets. Even so, this Court finds that a central pooling account is not essential to the functioning of the Pooling Agreement. The worksheets presented by Dr. Stewart at trial demonstrate that the Pooling Agreement can easily be administered by payments between the districts. This Court leaves it to the parties to determine the most efficient means of implementing this aspect of the agreement. 37. The overall cost of the Pooling Agreement is equally divided among LRSD and PCSSD. For example, although for the 1994- 95 school year PCSSD owes LRSD $520,512.00 [Exhibit 382], LRSD lost approximately $1.6 million in state aid it otherwise would have received. whereas PCSSD lost only approximately $600,000.00. 15 Thus, the payment of $520,512.00 to LRSD works to equalize to costs between the districts. [Transcript, v. II, p. 141-42]. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW 1. The present case concerns interpretation of a judicially approved settlement agreement which has been incorporated into a consent decree. For the purpose of interpretation. \"consent ^The exact amount may be calculated by multiplying the loss in ADM by the SBER. [Transcript, v. II, p. 141]. 19decrees are to be construed as contracts. 11 United States v. City of Fort Smith. 760 F.2d 231, 233-34 (Sth Cir. 1985). \"Therefore, fundamental principles of contract interpretation under relevant state law apply when a court is presented with the task of interpreting the provisions of a consent decree.\" United States v. City of Northlake. 942 F.2d 1164, 1167 (7th Cir. 1991). However, II [t]he interpretation of a consent decree should be a practical enterprise. influenced. perhaps, by technical rules of construction, but not controlled by them. II Little Rock School District V. Pulaski County Special School District, 60 F.3d 435, 436 (Sth Cir. 1995) . 2. Where a consent decree is free from ambiguity. its construction is a matter of law for the Court. See Floyd v. Otter Creek Homeowners's Ass'n. 742 S.W.2d 120, 123 (Ark. App. 1988)\nsee also San Francisco NAACP v. State Dept, of Educ.. 869 F.2d 412, 413 (9th Cir. 1990)(\"The scope of a consent decree must be discerned within its four corners, and not by reference to what might satisfy the purpose of one of the parties . . .\") quoting. United States v. Armour \u0026amp; Co.. 402 U.S. 673, 682 (1971). This Court finds the Pooling Agreement is unambiguous with regard to the relevant population for dividing the pooled funds. The Pooling Agreement clearly states that the funds are to be pooled \"for the education of all Interdistrict School students.\" [Settlement Agreement  2, 5 0(3)]. Therefore, the relevant population for dividing the pool is the total number of students attending interdistrict schools. PCSSD argues that a LRSD employee agreed that the pool 20 3.should be divided based on the number of M-to-M students. Even assuming this to be true, this argument fails for two reasons. First, it is well-settled under Arkansas law that only a school district's board of directors has authority to enter into contracts on behalf of the school district. See Responsive Environments Corp. V. Pulaski County Special School District. 366 F.Supp. 241, 245 (E.D.Ark. 1973)\nsee also Hart v. Bridges, 786 S.W.2d 589 (Ark. App. 1990). The LRSD Board of Directors never voted to modify the Pooling Agreement as suggested by PCSSD. Second, modification an agreement requires consideration other than the consideration involved in the existing agreement. Sorrells v. Bailey Cattle Co.. 595 S.W.2d 950, 956 (Ark. App. 1980). There is no consideration which would support modifying the Pooling Agreement to benefit only M-to-M students. Therefore, this Court rejects PCSSD's argument that LRSD agreed to any modification the Pooling Agreement. 4. Where the plain language of consent decree IS ambiguous. extrinsic or parol evidence must be considered to determine the intent of the parties at the time they entered into the agreement. Dodson V. Dodson, 825 S,W.2d 608, 610-11 (Ark. App. 1992)\nsee also Northlake. 942 F.2d at 1167\nSan Francisco NAACP. 869 F.2d at 413. This Court finds the Pooling Agreement to be ambiguous with regard to two issues. 5. First, was the Pooling Agreement a means to facilitate equalization? For the reasons set forth above, this Court finds that it was. 6. Second, what is an \"instructional budget\"? For the 21 areasons set forth above, this Court finds that \"instructional budget\" was intended to include all costs incurred at interdistrict schools except transportation costs and capital costs. 7. Because of the ambiguity related to the above issues, it has been suggested that there was never any \"meeting of the minds,\" and therefore, never a binding agreement. This is not so. A \"meeting of the minds\" requires merely \"objective indicators of agreement. II Crain Industries, Inc, V. Cass, 810 S.W.2d 910, 916 (Ark. 1991). The Arkansas Court of Appeals has explained: Although it is essential to the finality and completeness of assent that all terms should be definitely agreed upon. [citation omitted] , it does not follow that the parties must share identical subjective opinions as to the meaning of those terms before a valid contract can be formed. Dziqa v. Muradian Business Brokers. 773 S.W.2d 106, 107 (Ark. App. 1989) . Therefore, a II meeting of the minds II requires only that the parties assent to the terms of the agreement and evidence an intent to be bound by those terms. 8. Heller described the terms of the Pooling Agreement to the Special Master, and counsel for both parties indicated their intent to be bound by those terms. [Transcript, v. I, p. 122-125]. Accordingly, this Court finds that there was a \"meeting of the minds II sufficient to create a binding agreement. WHEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED AND ADJUDGED: 1. That the pool be distributed consistent with this Order for the 1991-92 school year to the present\nand. 2. That the parties to agree on a per pupil instructional budget for the all interdistrict schools for the 1996-97 school 22year so that instructional budgets of the interdistrict schools will be equalized beginning that school year.

JONES: 7 Q Who are you? 8 A Ruth Steele. 9 Ruth, help me. Q Can you give me the dates in which you 10 became the Little Rock superintendent, and the date that you 11 left? 12 A In July of 1989 and to June 30, 1992. 13 Q And I trust Chris has told you why you're here? 14 A Yes . 15 Q Okay. Before I get into the obvious questions, have you 16 had occasion to review anything in writing to help you get 17 ready for the deposition today? 18 A A little bit of the settlement agreement, and some 19 factual information that showed some budget figures, and 20 things of that nature. 21 Q Can you be more specific on the latter? 22 A I think it was a work-up sheet that was produced by 23 someone at the Pulaski County School District, showing a 24 scenario of M to M payments, and that sort of thing. 25 Q Before you reviewed that recently, had you ever seen it GIBSON-BRANTON REPORTING SERVICE r5011 22M91 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 5 or something like it? A Q No, I had not seen anything like that. Okay. reviewed? A Q A Q A No. Anything else that you can recall that you Any -- did you review anybody's testimony? No. Did Chris or anyone else summarize that for you? He talked a little bit about the not about anybody's testimony. Q A no, I don't think Or anybody's position, or anything like that? We just reviewed some general types of ideas, thoughts. comments from that Don had made, that Chip had made just to kind of help me to recollect some of the things that were occurring around the time frame that we're talking about. Q What I want to ask you to do -- understanding that we're going to get down to late September of 1989 -- can you capsule for me your recollection of what was still an issue regarding the financial settlement with the state as we entered those hearings before Mr. McCutcheon in late September of '89? A One of the issues had to do with the methods of funding for the interdistrict schools, and the problems about the actual payments, and how those would be handled. There had been a lot of prior issues over the release of GIBSON-BRANTON REPORTING SERVICE1 6 funds -- whether or not there was actually an agreement that 2 could be acted upon, based on the problems with the -- that 3 we had with the legislature first approving it, and then the 4 appropriations bill being struck, and then Nap Murphy losing 5 his key, and then the third and final decision from the 6 legislature about the capping the amount of money, and not 7 really agreeing in substance to anything other than a cap, in 8 terms of the money, except for those things which had already 9 been agreed to, like the M to M money, and transportation. 10 and that kind of thing. 11 And as the hearings began, do you have a recollection of 12 any issues that were still out there between the parties -- 13 particularly the county and Little Rock? 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 The discussions about the interdistrict schools. was one of the things discussed. with the That And then the discussion with McCutcheon over whether or not there was an executable agreement, it seems to me were those were primarily the things that I remember being an issue then. Do you remember anything occurring during the course of those hearings that prompted the parties to engage in further negotiations? I remember there was a there was a room that we several of us were coming in and out. There was an issue Q A Q A 24 over the funding of the interdistrict schools and the poolinc 25 of the how that would work. And there were some GIBSON-8RANTON REPORTING SERVICE7 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 discussions between Chris and you, and others that you were engaged in some discussion around, around that. And the -- primarily that's what I recall was going on at that particular time. Q Do you recall any specifics at all about pooling -- where the term came from, what it meant -- anything like that? A be What I understood that it meant was that the money would that would be forthcoming from the state in terms of the sending and receiving districts, and the amount that would be contributed, that would be pooled\nand that that would be used -- that pooled money would be used for the education of students attending the interdistrict schools. And that's what and that the amount that would be spent would be equalized so that no students from either district would be penalized in terms of a per pupil expenditure that would be identified for them as they attended those schools, in the event that two were eventually established -- one in Little Rock and one in Pulaski County. Q Do you have any recollection of why pooling came into existence? A It's -- my recollection is that it came into existence because we were attempting to establish, based on the magnet school model, that there would be an equitable, same amount of money that would be spent in the interests of furthering GIBS0N-8RANT0N REPORTING SERVICE1 8 desegregation to those types of schools. 2 That's what I recall. 3 Q I take it, then, that you do not have any recollection 4 that would involve settling an issue, like who got what part 5 of the funds the state was willing to provide? 6 A Well, the sending district was to receive --or was to 7 contribute half its table rate. And the host district was to 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 receive the full cost of educating the child, is what I remember about the distribution of the money\nand that the $200,000 per year that Pulaski County was going to get for a five-year period would be contributed toward that pool. Do you have any recollection of why the county was going to contribute $200,000 a year? The only thing that I remember is that there were some difference in the amount of money per pupil that the county expended in educating its students, as compared with what Little Rock was spending to educate students\nand that that amount of money was perhaps going to be used for that purpose -- to equalize all of that, as a part of that. Let me just try kind of a general question. Is there anything else that you can recall being either debated or resolved in that room outside of the court room during the course of those hearings? There were, as I recall from the discussions, there were -- there was agreement as to the fact that the interdistrict GIBSON-BRANTON REPORTING SERUICE 8 9 Q A Q A -501^'224^4099 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 schools would be funded along the same general types of procedures as the magnet schools. amount established. There would be a per pupil There would be equalized funding, which would come from the pool that was generated through funds from Little Rock and from Pulaski County. And that the application of that would be for all of the students that were attending the interdistrict schools, not simply those sent or received\nbut that that would apply to the total student population in the interdistrict school.\nThis project was supported in part by a Digitizing Hidden Special Collections and Archives project grant from The Andrew W.

Smith, Superintendent of Schools FROM: Mable W. Bynum, Assistant Superintendent for Desegregation SUBJECT: Progress Report of Deseqre~ation Plan Activities to the Federal Court EDUCATION AND EQUITY ISSUES Elimination of One-Race Classes. Teachers and guidance counselors make special efforts to recruit and register black students into college-prep and honors courses. All 1990-91 secondary classes were scheduled by the District's Computer Services Department using recently purchased software designed to racially balance classes, and Elementary Principals made special efforts to assign students to classes where interactions between races would occur. As a result, only a limited number of one-race classes exist. Principals have completed an assessment of classes to identify such sections and taken steps to eliminate them. District and school administrators, as well as guidance counselors have been advised of areas of concerns and strategies are being developed to increase the number of black students in upper-level courses to ensure fewer possibilities for one-race classes. Districtwide at the secondary school level there are seven regular education classes of one-race, out of 1,326 regular classes. Five of the classes are second year elective courses: Auto Mechanics II, Drafting, Painting, Sculpture and Creative Writing II, III and IV (all white). One class is a beginning level elective Journalism course (all white). Another class is an Honors Chemistry section (all white.) This section is offered opposite Athletics and all of the black students electing to participate in Honors Chemistry are athletes, therefore, are assigned to the P.O. BOX 687, NORTH LITTLE ROCK, AR 72115/0687 so1n71-8000 only other Honors Chemistry section. At the elementary level there is one Kindergarten class of one-race (all black), out of 48 classes. 'Kindergarten students are exempt from the court approved student assignment plan. Out of a total of 258 sections of special education classes there are 40 one race special education classes where students are assigned in accordance with individual educational plans. These classes vary in size from two to eight. Individualized speech therapy classes are not included. Assist school biracial and human relations teams to assess racial climate. All vacancies on school human relations teams have been filled. A committee is being established to develop an instrument for assessing the racial climate. The committee is composed of the Assistant Superintendent for Desegregation, Director of Computer Services, Coordinator of Informational Services, one building administrator, one elementary teacher, two parents and one secondary student. Four of these individuals will be black and four white. Conduct staff development activities consistent with desegregation plan to include prejudice reduction and discipline. Pre-school staff development programs included these activities consistent with the desegregation plan: 1. Cross-Cultural Interaction 2. Teaching \"At Risk Students\" 3. Monitoring The Desegregation Plan 4. Multicultural Information and Book Fair 5. Teaching in a Desegregated Setting. (See attachments I-A, I-B, and I-C.) All District personnel who interact with students and their parents were required to attend various sessions designed to improve cross-cultural interaction. Noncertified employees (clerical, cafeteria, custodial, lunchroom aides and substitute teachers) participated in one-half day sessions. Transportation Department employees (bus drivers and crossing guards) participated in safety training sessions in addition to those designed to address prejudice reduction. October 22 and November 5 were designated as days for desegregreation training for all instructional staff. Activities were specificaly planned to address the matter of teaching in the desegregated school sP~ting. Topics addr~ssed included: (See attach!rents 1-Dl \u0026amp; I-D2) 1.  4 Mat System (Learning Styles) ' 2. Working With Parents Effectively 3.

Activity Directors attended a workshop conducted by Mr. Horace Smith of the Arkansas Department of Education Equity Center on September 5. Activity Directors scheduled building staff meetings for Horace Smith to discuss teachers' roles in developing a quality activity program that includes all students. Monitor student participation in extracurricular activities. Secondary Activity Directors and Assistant Superintendents for Student Affairs and Desegregation have developed a reporting form for club sponsors to periodically report participation. (See attachment I-E.) Monitor the extra-curricular selection process. Regular Reports are required from sponsors. All clubs and activities must develop bylaws to be filed with school Activity Directors who must approve all regulations relating to membership. Ensure that all selection committees are biracial. All sponsors must secure Activity Directors' approval of selection committees prior to selection of membership. Publicize the extracurricular selection process. Activity Directors will prepare information to be included in building announcements, school newspapers and newsletters to parents regarding selection of students for extracurricular activities. Design activities to increase minority student participation in Extracurricular Activities. Activity Directors are working with administrators, sponsors and students to increase minority student participation. Activities already implemented include an activity period during the school day, an \"Activity Fair\" at the West Campus, an incentive card program designed to increase participation and reward those who are active, and an advisor/advisee program at the middle school level. Monitor activities to ensure that activities such as pageants and homecoming courts are not separated by race. A committee composed of District and building administrators, Activity Directors, parents, club sponsors and students planned homecoming activities. Activity Directors and Principals monitored homecoming court elections to avoid the separation of races. Election results were six Freshman Maids (4 white, 2 black), Six Sophomore Maids (3 white, 3 black), Six Junior Maids (4 white, 2 black), and eight Senior Maids (5 white, 3 black). One white Senior was crowned Queen, one black Senior was crowned Maid of Honor. Prepare school activity reports to be presented to the Superintendent, School Board and Biracial Committee.

There are two major reasons why the District is not endorsing summer camps for 7-8 and q-10 squads. First, the District intends to ensure equal access to a1 1 school programs and activities for every student. Second, the Tri-Di,,crict Desegregation Plan approved by the Federal Court specifically requires the District to eliminate factors that negatively impact student participation. In an effort to comply with court requirements, the District established a committee of parents, teachers, administrators and students to address all concerns and make recommendations for spirit groups. The committee's recommendations were accepted by the administration and approved for use by 1990-91 squads. Every student interested in trying out for spirit groups received a copy of those regulations and parents/guardians were required to grant permission to tryout\nas well as express intent to abide by the regulations. Page six of the information packet specifically addressed summer camps and this information is being forwarded to you for review. The District is making efforts to absorb some of the cost of spirit group participation by providing uniforms and some transportation. To eliminate even more of the cost, the District is providing in-district clinics planned and conducted by the high school varsity and junior varsity squads following completion of their out-of-district clinics. These clinics are scheduled for the week of August 6. Detailed clinic information will be forwarded later. AR 72115/0687 SV 1758-1760 ., .I.

Mrs. Bynum opened the meeting by stating that we would review the updated status reports from each department that were compiled for the Attorney to present to the Court. (See copies attached.) She stated that adjustments needed to be made in our Biracial Committee: (1) we need to appoint one white parent committee member to represent Zone 3, as replacement for Nina Dallas\nand (2) we need to appoint one black educator to replace Dorothy Williams, who has been appointed to an administrative position for next school year. Mrs. Bynum presented the report for the Desegregation Office. The Districtwide Biracial Committee has been formed and has met three times. Mr. Bradley Scott, Coordir.tor Region VI Desegregation Assistance Center, San Antonio, Texas, was a guest at the meeting on May 8. He spoke to ~he group explaining their role and function in the desegregation process and gave positive reinforcement of purpose. He has also presented two days of workshop activities to two-member teacher teams from each school and all administrators. These were in the form of \"trainer of trainers\" sessions that can be utilized in staff development in the schools. Further workshops will be scheduled for the 90-91 school year. Members have been named to serve on tri-district committees in multicultural programs, alternative education programs, downtown early childhood education centers, business/communication magnet programs and achievement disparity. Mrs. Bynum stated that the Desegregation Office continues to provide information and explanation to the Metropolitan Supervisor's staff as requested. We also continue to cooperate with Little Rock, Pulaski County and the State Department of Education in all efforts to implement the Tri-District Desegregation Plan. She next presented the Personnel Report. The Personnel Office continues its recruitment of minority educators. Since semester, we have appointed one black principal at the elementary level, thus increasing the number of black principals to nine. We have also added three administrative assistants at the elementary level, two of whom are black. Secondary staff members have been reassigned for 1990-91 school year to facilitate the court approved secondary reorganization and an equitable distribution of minority personnel has been completed. Bobby Acklin presented the Student Affairs Report. He stated that he was pleased with the discipline report for April. The statistics show a considerable drop from March. He also stated that he was pleased with the student assignment process. Student assignments look good for 1990-91, with only Park Hill Elementary being out of line at this time. He said that he would continue to work on this and felt sure he could bring all schools into compliance status by the beginning of the school year. Secondary schools' boundaries have been changed and all are in compliance at this time. Dr. John Moore presented the Instructional Reports. Expansion of existing eight-station computer laboratories to the proposed twenty-eight station laboratories will be delayed during the 1990-91 school year due to the lack of funds. Chapter I funds will continue to be used to establish eight station computer laboratories in elemtntary schools which have the greatest identified need. A Principle of Alphabet Literacy Systems (PALS) will be installed at the high school campus during the 1990-91 school year. Staff development efforts continue and plans are being developed for 1990-91. We continue to cooperate with ~ittle Rock and Pulaski County School Districts in establishing a tri-district program for staff development. Summer School Programs have been planned for elementary and secondary students. Summer school programs will be housed at Boone Park, Rose City Junior High and at Northeast High School campus. Dr. Moore reported a significant drop in special education enrollment as compared to 1988. Staff reduction in this area is inevitable because of substantial loss of funding~ He stated we continue efforts to recruit minority students for gifted/ talented enrollment. Dr. Moore stated that JTPA funding is being solicited for txpansion to full time of our HIPPY Program. He said that it does not look favorable at this time. We will continue the program and plan to add at least one school next year. He reported that the multicultural education curriculum should be ninety percent complete by this time next year. Scharmel Bolling reported that she had identified public relations functions that could be performed by trained volunteers. She also reported that she was developing a program for secretarial training in communications to be presented in August, and a communication training program for Communication Coordinators that will be appointed in each school. Greg Daniels reported that he has investigated software for staff development records to be kept by the District. We discussed department responsibility of this project and agreed it belongec to the Instruction Department. Mr. Daniels said he planned to get the program in place during June, before the Computer Services Department got involved in their heavy summer work load. Charl~s Brown requested that he be involved in any preliminary plans, in order to establish a budget for this project. We set our next meeting for June 11, at 1:30 p.m. We will review the school based desegregation reports at that time and talk about format for reporting. Meeting adjourned at 3:30 p.m. NORTH LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT North Little Rock, Arkansas Attachment I-N2 Minutes of District Desegregation Meeting on June 11, 1990 The North Little Rock District Desegregation team met on June 11, 1990, at 1:30 p.m., in the Board Room of the Administrative Building. The following team members attended the meeting: Mr. James Smith, Mrs. Mable Bynum, Mr. Bobby Acklin, Dr. John Moore and Mr. Greg Daniels. Mrs. Bynum opened the meeting by furnishing copies of the minutes from the last Biracial Committee meeting of June 5, 1990. We discussed some of the issues that came up at that meeting. We agreed that we need to furnish this committee with the elementary staff racial composition at the August meeting. We also discussed what we could offer in the way of leadership training to our students. The next item considered was the quarterly reports from the School Based Desegregation Teams. Mrs. Bynum pointed out that several of these reports mentioned the need for motivational speakers and inservice. We discussed some of the things we could do during the staff development week of the 1990-91 school year. We also discussed discipline, another concern, identified in many of the reports. Mrs. Bynum brought up a discussion of one race classes. She reminded us that we must identify any one race classes at the beginning of the new school year and give a written explanation if any classes are identified. Mrs. Bynum asked for a review of extra-curricular activities. Dr. Moore stated that we have data on Chapter I students verifying that we have too many extra curricular activities in progress, and significant interruptions were occurring in the instructional program. He pointed out that of students qualifying for 175 days of instruction, they had actually received 143 days of instruction. We agreed we need to take a look at this and perhaps look at trade offs to deal with the situation. Mrs. Bynum questioned Mr. Daniels concerning progress in developing a program to track staff development. Mr. Daniels assured us this is an on-going program that will be implemented by the coming school year. He said that we would not only record attendance to the different staff development programs, but our instrument would serve as an evaluation document. Mrs. Bynum pointed out that some of the school based teams were also requesting more computer lab inservice. Dr. Moor~ stated that Letitia Martin was working on this, and we would continue to offer this inservice repeatedly. Mr. Acklin presented his discipline report for May. (See copy attached.) He pointed out that we had a big jump at Redwood Elementary due to difficulties we had to work through. We discussed what could be done in the way of on-campus suspensions at the elementary level. Dr. Moore discouraged use of this measure at the elementary level. Mr. Acklin stated that statistics were up again at Central over last month. Mr. Smith stated that this problem should improve after our restructure process. We agreed it would be interesting to make comparisons next year. Mr. Acklin stated that we had had no complaints from principals on the new discipline report forms. Mr. Daniels responded that he was having some problems with his copies not being clear. He stated that if Computer Services could receive the second copy instead of the third copy, it would be beneficial to his department. Mrs. Bynum questioned the implementation of a grant procurement office. Mr. Smith stated that a decision had not been made at this time. This could be a tri-district effort to enable the three districts to increase their grant monies. Mrs. Bynum announced that the Tri-District Achievement Disparity Committee meeting was being hosted by our District for tonight's meeting at 6:30 p.m. They have requested that we furnish data of results on MAT 6 and Arkansas Minimum Performance testing. (See copies attached.) Dr. Moore stated that our test data reflects good growth in math, science and language arts. He also stated that the issue of achievement disparity is constant and is a real problem. Principals use this data to write plans for achievement disparity. Dr. Moore stated that we have a 15% difference in scores of minority students, and we are constantly looking for ways to improve these differences. The next item discussed was drop-outs for 1989-90. (See copies attached.) We compared it with the report from 1988-89. We pursued a lengthy discussion concerning these statistics and possibilities of resolving some of our problems. Mrs. Bynum said she has been asked if we were pursuing the issue of pulling drivers' license when students drop out of school. Mr. Acklin responded that this would be addressed in the student handbook for next school year. (See copy of law attached.) Mrs. Bynum asked when she was questioned on staffing alternative school, to whom should she refer them? Mr. Smith responded they should be referred to the Metropolitan Cooperative Services. Mr. Smith stated that he would ask the Board's permission for the Pine Elementary School building to be used as an alternative school. Mr. Smith reminded members of the team that we would be in court on June 21 for a desegregation hearing, and encouraged members to try to attend this hearing. We discussed summer school enrollment, and agreed that the programs are off to a smooth start. Mrs. Bynum reported that she had met with the other districts' desegregation officers and the Metropolitan Supervisor's staff. She had requested a copy of their timelines that were posted in their office, but they have not sent us a copy at this time. We have furnished them with a copy of the timelines we have identified for our District, as per their request. We set our next meeting for July 9, 1990, at 1:30 p.m. Meeting was adjourned at 3:00 p.m. aw Attachment I-N3 NORTH LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT North Little Rock, Arkansas Minutes of District Desegregation Meeting on July 2, 1990, at 1:30 p.m. The following individuals were present: James R. Smith, Mable W. Bynum, Charles Brown, Gene Jones, Esther Crawford, and Jim Dyer. The meeting was called by Mr. Smith in response to the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals Order of today (7-2-90) impacting the District's Desegregation Plan. Mr. Smith gave those in attendance a copy of the court order and asked that we discuss immediate implications for the District. The group agreed that the most pressing need for the 1990-91 school year was the follow through on addressing achievement disparity in the District. Charles Brown referred to information prepared by John Moore, former Assistant Superintendent for Instruction, relating to the purchase of equipment to establish 28 station basic skills computer laboratories in elementary schools identified in the negotiated settlement as well as in the Tri-District Plan prepared by the late Eugene Reville. It was agreed that the 1989-90 settlement funds would allow the District to begin immediate expansion for 28 station computer labs at the following schools: Amboy, Boone Park, Glenview, North Heights, Redwood and Rose City. Six other schools: Indian Hills, Lynch Drive, Meadow Park, Pike View, Seventh Street and Central (combined Argenta and Pine Schools) will have eight station Chapter I labs installed this year. It was Charles Brown's opinion that three or four of these could also be included in th~ 28 station expansion. This would ledve four elementary schools without computer labs and those will be added prior to the 1992-93 completion date outlined in the Tri-District Desegregation Plan. Mr. Dyer presented information related to the Chapter I program expansion. Mrs. Crawford addressed the concern of staffing of labs in view of Chapter I guidelines not allowing program aides to work during time wh~n non-Chapter I students are assigned to the lab. It was decided to leave all lab aides in current assignments until mure information is available. Mr. Dyer informed the group o: the addition of one staff position in the Chapter I program. Tht new employee will be a subject area specialist with major responsibility to assist computer lab aides and teachers. In the matter of early childhood education, Mrs. Crawford said that plans were being made to expand the HIPPY program to the Seventh Street Elementary School area for the 1990-91 school year. Plans are still incomplete as to the number of additional HIPPY aides to be added or the actual number of families to be served this year\nhowever, Mrs. Barbara Gilkey will be working on these plans. Plans are on-going for training all kindergarten teachers in the Early Prevention of School Failure Program. In the matter of secondary programming, it was noted that a computer assisted component in the remedial reading program would be in place at the 11-12th grade for the 1990-91 school year. All secondary students will be scheduled by computers to assist with the elimination of one-race classes, In addition secondary administrators will monitor the scheduling process very carefully. All basic level classes will be eliminated for 7-8th grades for the 1990-91 school year. Funds from the settlement agreement monies will be allocated for pre-college testing fees for economically disadvantaged youth. In the matter of extra-curricular activities, Mrs. Bynum informed the group of correspondence directed to members secondary spirit groups regarding out-of-district camps. attached letter). She also mentioned that Mr. Aclin had decision regarding transportation for students attending camps.

The following individuals were in attendance: James Smith, Mable Byr.um, Gene Jones, Bobby Acklin, Scharmel Bolling and Greg Daniels. The meeting was called for reaction to the request from Arma Hart and Ann Brown, Associate Metropolitan Supervisors, regarding preparation for desegregation monitoring. (See copy of request attached, item 1.) Our lawyer has directed that we furnish a report of programs, facilities, operations, and activities which we have already implemented or will implement for the 1990-91 school year, as directed by the Tri-District Desegregation Plan. Mrs. Bynum opened the meeting by stating the matters to be addressed and furnished copies of the District Desegregation Plan Timetable as identified by our District personnel (item 2 attached), and the timeline identified by Ann Brown, Associate Metropolitan Supervisor (item 3 attached). Scharmel Bolling brought up the recent papers' notification of Parent Committees scheduled for next week. We discussed these meetings and agreed that even though we had not been formally notified individually of these meetings, some of our administrators could represent the District at these meetings. Mrs. Bolling questioned Mr. Smith about the purchase of software or development of public relations curriculum. She said that the cost would be approximately $700. She stated that our software was at least four years older than that used by the other two districts. She felt it was necessary to carry out the plans directed by the desegregation plan. Mr. Smith agreed and instructed her to make the necessary purchase. Mrs. Bynum suggested that we make a through study together of the timetables and see that we were on target in all areas. After a through study, we agreed that we were meeting all of the goals that had bet set in each area. In discussing the staff development resource inventories or banks, we looked at ways to accurately record this data and discussed actions we could take to assure accuracy of this data. We discussed the use of scan sheets to speed up the process. It was sugsested that an annual printout should be placed in the individual's personnel file. It was agreed that this data input would be the responsibility of the Assistant Superintendent for Instruction, and copies of credit of participation would be furnished to the individual and to the Personnel Office, to be placed in the individual's personnel file. In a discussion concerning one-race classes, Mr. Daniels said that computer data would help us in identifying these classes prior to the beginning of school. This would help us to monitor this situation and eliminate one-race classes. We discussed the hiring of bus aides. Mr. Acklin stated that these persons would be employed as the need arises. Mr. Acklin stated that plans would be implemented to furnish transportation for extra curricular activities. He stressed the importance of increasing our transportation services and assured his dedication to implementing these services. Mrs. Bynum requested that each administrator take the timetables and respond in writing to Mr. Smith on all issues that were pertinent to their particular responsibilities. She reminded them of the deadline for submitting this information to the Metropolitan Supervisor's Office was July 27, 1990, and asked for their response by July 19, 1990. This would give us time to get our response to the lawyer's office and meet the deadline. Mrs. Bynum stated that the Personnel Office would also need to submit an updated report. Scharmel Bolling asked if w2 would ask for reconsideration from Judge Wright concerning the refusal to approve the reorganization cf Pine and Argenta Elementary Schools. It was agreed that we would proceed with plans to open the school year without implementing this change until we receive further direction from . the Courts. We pursued a short discussion of furnishing transportation to and from drill team clinics for students, and agreed that we would have to develop more explicit plans for this project. Meeting was adjourned at 3:15 p.m. --- --- - - . -- Attachment I-NS NORTH LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT NORTH LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS Minutes of the Desegregation Team Meeting. The North Little Rock School District Desegregation Team met on September 10, 1990 at 1:30 p.m. in the Board Room of the Administration Building. Members of the team present were Mable Bynum, Chairman, James Smith, Superinttndent of Schools, Gene Jones, Assistant Superintendent for Instructi6n, Donald Watkins, Assista11t Superintendent for Business Services, Jim Morris, Director of Personnel, and Scharmel Bolling, Coordinator for Information Services. Mrs. Bynum opened the meeting by stating that Jim Morris, Director uf Personnel, will join the Desegregation Team because he is directly responsible for personnel. She also noted for the newest members that initially the Desegregation Team was formed to monitor the Desegregation Plun as set out in prior court dates. Those who report directly to Mr. Smith were appointed to the committee. Scharmel Bolling was added because of her responsibility for reporting information. Greg Daniels, with Computer Services, was added because the Desegregation Team will be working closely with that Department for figures, etc. We then discussed the requirement of a 504 Coordinator (Act 504). Gene Jones nominated Dr. Steve Phaup and Mr. Smith stated that he would prepare a statement covering this appointment to the Board. Next, Scharmel Bolling questioned the need for a Media Coalition as outlined in the Desegregation Plan. Mr. Smith advised that we need to justify what we are already doing with two of them reporting to media personnel. We next discussed the monitoring process. It was noted that all three districts have plans and the state has monitoring plans, also. The Tri-District Plan recommends three district monitoring plans for submission plus others from Section V. There are two desegregation plans. The District Plan of December 1, 1989 was submitted to the Metropolitan Supervisor, Mr. Euge11e Reville, who wrote the Tri-District Plan which was approved on March 5, 1990. He approved or recommended much of what we had offered. Steve Jones, Attorney for the District, advised the District to be cautious of specifically setting out what we monitor from the Plan. Section II of the District's December 1 Plan, Staff Recruitment, is not in the Tri-District Plan, but, it is in our Plan that we submitted\ntherefore, will be monitored. We need to be sure that our information to the courts stands. Mrs. Bynum stated that we need to be carefully monitoring and making sure we get all things done. She advised the importance of monitoring on a daily basis. We need to compare the two plans. She provided a list of all items in the Tri-District Plan, even those from unapproved sections. She requested team members to make a separate list of things that are not on the Tri-District Plan list, but, are in the December 1 plan. Those lists are to be forwarded to the Desegregation Office. The next item discussed was reporting to the courts. Mrs. Bynum requested a check list for quarterly reports required by the settleme11t .. It was noted that Pulaski County Special School District reports annually, but adds information each quarter. The next quarterly report is now due and goes to Ann Brown and Arma Hart after review by Steve Jones. Mr. Smith suggested taking the last quarterly report and adding to it by using the memos of July 27 and 30, 1990 to Arma Hart and Ann Brown as a guide. Mrs. Bynum stated that each time we meet we need to review the monitoring check list tu determine progress. School teams will report twice each year. Those reports should be reviewed by the District Team which meets monthly, the second Monday. Biannual reports go to the State Department. Mrs. Bynum noted that the State Department accepts reports twice a year and questioned the need to do them quarterly in as much as Arma Hart has indicated that her office will accept the State's form and report. Mr. Smith stated he would be talking to Steve Jones about the monitoring process and would get a note to team members regarding what needs to be added to have a complete monitoring report. It was advised that Extra-Curricular Activities reports come out of the Office of Student Affairs. Gary Goss is currently not over student participation. Mr. Smith and Mrs. Bynum will get together to look at Extra-Curricular Activities and the need for a coordinator to be assigned. Barbara Gilkey is being retained as a half-time social worker. Mrs. Bynum is handling Biracial and Human Relations Teams to assess racial climate under Section II of the Tri-District Plan. Security, Section IV, needs to be listed and assigned to a division. The training sessions with Bradley Scott on how to use the Monitoring Instrwnent during school site visits are planned for September 26 and 27, 1990. NORTH LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT North Little Rock, Arkansas Attachment I-N6 Minutes of the District Desegregation Team Meeting on 10/8/90 The North Little Rock District Desegregation team met on October 8, 1990, at 1:30 p.m., in the Board Room uf the Administrative Building. The following team members attended the meeting: Mr. James Smith, Mrs. Mable Bynum, Mr. Bobby Acklin, Mr. Jim Morris, Mr. Gene Jones, Mr. Donald Watkins and Ms. Scharmel Bolling. Mrs. Bynum opened the meeting and asked for a discussion of student discipline. Mr. Acklin reported that he did not have an accurate statistical data at this time due to our change over this year in the reporting system, but these would be available soon. He reported fewPr reports of discipline incidents at the secondary level thus far, and more than usual at the elemer1tary level, since the implementation of the elementary alternative program. He said that we have averaged about five students in this progran1, with eleven students being the largest number of students suspended into the progrom at one time. He said that he had very good reports from this operation of the of the elementary alternative program. Mr. Smith stated that most of discipline problems brought tu his attention had occurred at bus stops and that staff had been quick to address those problems. Mr. Acklin reported that our transportation system was working good this year. lie stated that we had bPcn c1.ble to hire adequate bus drivers to fill our need, but we are still in need of substitute drivPrs. Mr. Acklin said that he had 11othing to report on extra curricular activities, but we are providing transportation for all these activities. Mrs. Bynum noted that Mr. Horace Smith has visited with all secondary staffs except the West Campus where he is scheduled October 10, to address the teacher's role in ensuring a quality extra-curricular_ program. Gary Goss, Athletics Director, has been assigned as coordinator for spirit groups. (See attachment.) , . Mr. Jones reported on progress of the Instructional Department. He stated that we had been able to implement the special compensatory education programs. We have hired 17 Parent/Homework Center Aides for the elementary schools and provided training sessions for the personnel. He reported that we now have five computer labs working on an extended day basis in compliance with the compensatory education program. Our program at the secondary schools are moving ahead. We have designated two teachers as Ninth Grade Turning Point Coordinators, and the PALS Lab at North Litle Rock High School - West Campus is progressing. (See attachment.)~. Mr. Jim Morris reported that we have filled all personnel vacancies that occurred from the transfers of teachers into new programs since school began. He stated that in every case we had tried to fill our vacancies with minority educators, but with no positive results in obtaining minority applicants. We have requested assistance of Little Rock and Pulaski County Special School Districts in this search. Both districts have also asked us for help in filling some of their vacancies, so they are having the same problems. Mrs. Bynum expressed pleasure in the fact that our present personnel had turned down vacancies we have posted in accordance with Policy CBDA. She said that our present secondary staff were showing satisfaction in their new locations and do not wish to move to other schools, which shows how quickly the teachers have adjusted to their reassignments under the restructuring plans. Mrs. Bynum reported that she was working with individual teams to prepare for the monitoring process in the schools. She explained that we must prepare our updated quarterly reports to the Court. We agreed on the format and target date for completion was set for October 19, 1990. Mrs. Bynum stressed that pertinent information pertaining to our reports should be attached. Mr. Jones stated he was pleased with the orderliness apparent in our schools this year and expressed appreciation for the fine job our building administrators are doing. He expressed concerns with the project of documenting staff development data for our teachers. We briefly discussed this and agreed we would proceed with our plans to record all district required staff development, and we later might make changes in our procedure. Mrs. Bynum concluded with reporting attendance of she and Mr. Jones to the National Conference on Effective Schools and Multi-Cultural Education in Orlando, Florida, on August 4 through 7, 1990. She will also attend the Southwest Educational Development Laboratory's - Training-the-Trainer School Improvement Partnership Process Series on October 9 and 10, 1990, in Hot Springs.

The following team members attended the meeting: Mr. James Smith, Mrs. Mable Bynum, Mr. Bobby Acklin, Mr. Jim Morris, Mr. Donald Watkins and Ms. Scharmel Bolling. Mrs. Bynum opened the meeting by furnishing copies of the agenda. (See copy attached.) The first item discussed was the District's Court Update that has to be submitted quarterly. Mrs. Bynum reported that all division reports were completed and submitted to the attorney for his approval on October 25, 1990. We have not received a response on the report from the attorney at this time. It was agreed that Mrs. Bynum would call the attorney and check on the matter. Mr. Acklin distributed copies of disciplinary reports for the months of September and October. (See copies attached.) After a through perusal by the team members, we pursued a lengthy discussion of the report. Mr. Acklin commented that we had not seen expulsions for drug related incidents so far, but they would probably occur later in the school year, because the discipline policy allows for suspension instead of expulsion for initial possession and/or use of drugs infractions. He stated that gang activities have been the greatest concern thus far. We discussed the racial composition of disciplinary actions. Mr. Acklin stated that in his analysis of the report, he was unable to mark a pattern at this point. We agreed that we needed to identify the teachers making the most referrals for disciplinary action. The next item discussed was our community bus tour provided to all staff members on November 5, during the Desegregation Staff Development day. Mrs. Bynum expressed her pleasure with the outcome of the two Desegregation Staff Development days completed on October 22 and November 5. She stated that the District had been able to provide very good programs on these two days and that our staff had been receptive to the District's efforts in providing this training. Mr. Smith brought up a discussion of problems at Boone Park. He suggested that the District needed to consider changing the bussing plans for that area next school year. Mr. Acklin agreed that we need to take a look at these problems as we make changes for the 1991-92 school year. Mrs. Bynum expressed concern with the number of expulsions and loss of students. Team members agreed it was a problem where we needed to come up with a solution that would help alleviate these problems. Mr. Smith reported that students were very receptive to the District's compensatory education programs. Students have been enthusiastic and have been very agreeable to staying after school to participate in these programs. Mr. Acklin brought up a discussion of the HIPPY program. He thought that the efforts expended in this program would benefit the District in the future by alleviating some of the disciplinary problems that we now encounter. Mr. Smith commented that so far we are only able to scratch the surface of these problems. The next item discussed was the Turning-Point program being offered at NLRHS - East Campus. This program is a compensatory education program for ninth grade students that have failed the MPT at least once during the eighth grade. The District has 20 students enrolled in the program at the present time. Mrs. Bynum stated that as we monitor the results of this program, we should be able to accrue valuable statistical data for future use. Mr. Acklin reported that the District was continuing to furnish transportation for many school functions, such as: open house activities, carnivals, athletic events,etc. Mr. Acklin stated that we had not had many problems in providing transportation. Mrs. Bynum reported on the progress of the School Based Desegregation teams. Preparations are being made in the individual schools and at the administrative level for the monitoring process. The process is scheduled to be completed prior to the Christmas Holidays. We set our next meeting for December 10, 1990, at 1:30 p.m. Meeting adjourned at 3:00 p.m. aw Attachment I - NB NORTH LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT North Little Rock, Arkansas Minutes of the District Desegregation Team Meeting on 12/10/90 The North Little Rock School District Desegregation team met on Monday, December 10, 1990, at 1:30 p.m., in the Board Room of the Administrative Building. The following team members attended the meeting: Mr. James Smith, Mrs. Mable Bynum, Mr. Bobby Acklin, Mr. Gene Jones, Mr. Jim Morris, Mr. Greg Daniels and Ms. Scharmel Bolling. Mrs. Bynum opened the meeting and furnished copies of the agenda. (See copy attached.) The first item discussed was the quarterly District Court Update. Mrs. Bynum reported that corrections had been made, as recommended by the lawyer, and returned to the lawyer for submittal to the Court. Mrs. Bynum reported that the Biracial Committee had voiced concerns about M-to-M transfers and the Board's proposal to eliminate corporal punishment. After a lengthy discussion on these matters, at their meeting on December 4, it was agreed that Mr. Charles Hunter, Chairperson, would ask to address the Board of Education about their concern with the proposal to eliminate corporal punishment. We had a short discussion concerning M-to-M transfers. Mrs. Bynum said that the school desegregation team at Argenta had complained to her again this morning about getting three M-to-M transfer students. Mr. Aclin responded that the reason for that was that the students had attended Argenta last year and had asked to return to the same school. The M-to-M transfer policy allows this assignment. Mr. Smith asked if we were taking M-to-M students at the high school level, and Mr. Acklin assured him we were not, that the number of student enrollment at the high school level was such that we could refuse M-to-M transfers. Mr. Acklin asked if he should go talk to the Principal at Argenta, Mrs. Beverly Kelso, and explain the M-to-M transfer policy, so that she could advise her staff of the procedure. Mrs. Bynum said that it would be a good idea to consult with Mrs. Kelso. Mrs. Bynum reported that Argenta was in the process of monitoring today, and she asked Mr. Daniels about data to answer a question on the monitoring form concerning student achievement/assessment. She asked what kind of comparisons we could pull up from the computer. Mr. Daniels responded that we had been scanning our own MAT-6 and MPT scores in the Coordinator for Instructional Services' Office. Mrs. Bynum said she would check with Mr. Dyer to find out what data would be available to us. Mrs. Bynum also asked Mr. Daniels if we could get a grade distribution by teacher and race. Mr. Daniels said he could furnish this breakdown without a problem. Mr. Acklin furnished copies of the Disciplinary Report. (See copy attached.) We pursued a lengthy discussion of the report. Mr. Smith questioned if the statistics from this year for 9-10 students were reduced from last year, since the restructuring of the secondary schools. Mr. Acklin said that he had not made an actual comparison, since we had changed our method of reporting this year. Mr. Smith said that he had seen a definite reduction in the number of seventh grade students' disciplinary actions since last year. Mr. Daniels said that he could furnish data of a more definite break down of corporal punishment by schools. We discussed Seventh Street's procedure of in-house suspensions instead of suspension to the Elementary Alternative School. Mr. Acklin said he felt a need to follow through from referral on down to suspension - consultation with the teacher that makes the referral. After discussion of this, it was agreed that it would be an impossible task to follow up with every referral. Mr. Daniels said that we have a problem in the secondary schools with getting the disciplinarian action input of data. Mrs. Bynum asked if we needed to bring the secretarial personnel responsible for the input in for further training. Mr. Daniels agreed that he would set training sessions for the secretarial personnel involved. Mrs. Bynum stated that Ann Brown and Arma Hart, Associate Metropolitan Supervisors, were scheduled to meet with us on Tuesday, December 11, to go through the monitoring check list with us. She asked Mr. Jones to try to meet with the group and he agreed he would. We set our next meeting for January 14, 1991, at 1:30 p.m. Meeting was adjourned at 2:45 p.m. aw Attachment I - N9 NORTH LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT North Little Rock, Arkansas Minutes of the District Desegregation Team Meeting on 1/14/91 The North Little Rock School District Desegregation Team met on Monday, January 14, 1991, at 1:30 p.m., in the Board Room of the Administration Building. The following team members attended the meeting: Mr. James Smith, Mrs. Mable Bynum, Mr. Bobby Acklin, Mr. Gene Jones, Mr. Donald Watkins, Mr. Jim Morris, Mr. Greg Daniels and Ms. Scharrnel Bolling. Mrs. Bynum opened the meeting and furnished copies of the agenda. (See copy attached.) The first item discussed was the Committee's functions. Mrs. Bynum stressed the importance of each member and that each Administrator was charged with the responsibility to help in the monitoring of the desegregation plan, especially in the particular areas related to their positions. Mrs. Bynum referred them to the Plan Monitoring. (See copy attached.) Mrs. Bynum brought up a discussion of when and where we started phasing out basic classes. Mr. Smith responded that it was a part of Mr. Reville's plan, and that it was our intention to follow through with the phase out, because the other two districts have already phased out their basic classes. We have made great strides in this area by eliminating basic classes at all levels except in grades 9, 10, 11 and 12. Mrs. Bynum reported that she and Mr. Morris had been meeting with the attorneys for several days to determine adjustments to be made in the Desegregation Plan. Mr. Smith was optimistic that this would not be a long drawn out process. Each districts' attorneys will revise their district's plan and then meet with all three plans for review. Mrs. Bynum furnished each member with a copy of our present Monitoring/Implementation Plan form. (See copy attached.) She said that these forms should be completed by all departments on at least a quarterly basis\nalthough, we could not do this until the attorney completes our new plan. The next item was division update reports as follows: Desegregation - Mrs. Bynum reported that all of the District's school will have completed their monitoring process on January 16, 1991. We discussed the procedure of review of the final reports. It was agreed that the reports would first be reviewed by the Principal, then reports would be reviewed by the District Desegregation Team and passed on to the Biracial Committee, before being presented to the Board of Education for review. Personnel - Mr. Morris reported that we will probably contract for some of the vacancies that have occurred, but some would be filled with assigned substitute teachers. He said that we will be starting our recruitment process of colleges and universities in early February. He reported that we were preparing necessary forms to complete the Personnel Survey for 1991-92 school year. This process is to be completed the week beginning March 1, 1991. Mrs. Bynum said that all the District's schools had reported concerns of shortage of minority staffing in their final reports of the schools' monitoring process. We discussed procedures to recruit more minority applicants. Student Affairs - Mr. Acklin furnished copies of the discipline actions in the District during the month of December. (See copy attached.) The team members pursued a lengthy discussion after a thorough perusal of the report. Mrs. Bynum expressed concern with 15 off-campus suspensions at the East Campus. Mr. Daniels explained that we did not have a code for alternative schools and thus these were showing up as off-campus suspensions, which would not necessarily be the case. Mr. Daniels said that this could be corrected and he could provide a more in-depth report to team members. Mrs. Bynum questioned Mr. Daniels about the data input from the schools. Mr. Daniels responded that there had been an improvement in the process and it was working more efficiently. Instruction - Mr. Jones reported that he would like to recommend approval of some new projects and curriculum that he was working on. 1. A new course at the secondary level - \"Principals of Technology\". The course is an applied science course covering fourteen units of applied physics. The two-year curriculum shows students how technical concepts can be analyzed and applied to equipment and devices in mechanical, fluid, electrical, and thermal energy systems. The Vocational and Technical Education Division of the Arkansas State Department of Education provides both start-up funding and add-on funding for student enrollment. Equipment acquired with this program could be utilized by other physical science classes. An application for start-up funds will be filed with the Arkansas Department of Education by their March 1 deadline for new programs. We propose to implement the course in 1991-92 at the North Little Rock High School-East Campus, where sophomores would be eligible for enrollment. 2. Mr. Jones reported that Stanford University was offering an Accelerated Schools Project,. and we would apply as a pilot school for this project. The Accelerated Schools Project seeks to transform conventional elementary schools into schools that accelerate the learning of all students, even those who are at-risk for school failure. The pilot schools have shown exciting results. Achievement scores are up, student and staff attendance rates are up, parent involvement is up, and student and staff morale is soaring! 3. Reading Recovery - An early intervention program for first grade students who are at-risk of failure. The purpose of the program is to give intensive help to students in reading and and writing before they get far behind and before they get more confused about what is going on in instruction. Reading Recovery does not take the place of classroom work. It supports the classroom program. In cooperation with the classroom teacher, the reading recovery teacher provides thirty minutes of one-onone instruction to each identified student on a daily basis. 4. (MAST) Math and Science Together: Funded by a grant from the National Science Foundation, Arkansas' Project MAST: Math and Science Together is a joint effort of Arkansas Partners in Education, of the Governor's Office, and the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. Its purpose is to implement a model education program in Arkansas over a period of four and one-half years in the area of elementary math and science. The project will include the following components: 1) expansion of a successful existing out-of-school program in mathematics for students in grades 2-6 (Gifted Math Program), having components of curriculum individualization, enrichment and problem solving, and use of microcomputers, to an in-school program serving a wider range of ability levels\n2) integration of science instruction for students in grades 2-6 into expanded mathematics model\n3) development of curricula and support materials for this integrated math/science model program\n4) provision for teacher training for 90 teachers in elementary math and science education\n5) dissemination of this model program to 16 sites throughout the state through the Restructured Schools Program\nand 6) incorporation of computer technology and the use of calculators into the model program and teacher training. Mrs. Bynum complimented Mr. Jones on his ongoing efforts of study of implementation of new and advanced programs and curriculum. Ms. Bolling stated we would need to get media coverage on these new programs. We set our next meeting for February 11, 1991, at 1:30 p.m. Meeting was adjourned at 2:55 p.m. aw Attachment I - NlO NORTH LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT North Little Rock, Arkansas Minutes of the District Desegregation Team Meeting on 2/11/91 The North Little Rock School District Desegregation Team met on Monday, February 11, 1991, at 1:30 p.m., in the Board Room of the Administrative Building. The following team members attended the meeting: Mrs. Mable Bynum, Mr. Gene Jones, Mr. Bobby Acklin, Mr. Donald Watkins, Mr. Jim Morris and Mr. Greg Daniels. Mrs. Bynum opened the meeting and furnished copies of the agenda. (See copy attached.) Committee appointments was the first item discussed. Forms were furnished to members. (See copy attached.) Mrs. Bynum explained that as committees were appointed these forms should be turned in to the Desegregation Office for equity monitoring. Mr. Morris questioned the team members' responsibility of committee appointments in the schools. Mrs. Bynum responded that this was the responsibility of building and District Administrators to establish committees which reflect diverse representation and the forms reviewed by her office staff. Mr. Acklin reported on racial composition of schools and disciplinary actions during the month of January. (See copies of both reports attached.) He stated that we were in compliance, since we started off the school year in compliance, but several of the schools - Boone Park, Argenta, Indian Hills, Rose City Middle School and Lakewood Middle School- have to be closely scrutinized. Our District has 494 students at the six original magnet schools and 106 M-to-M students in Little Rock. The District has 170 M-to-M students from Little Rock. Mr. Daniels said there was a difference in accounting in Computer Services records and suggested that we need to work out a better system for school notification to the Computer Services Department. Mr. Acklin said that his office could keep a running log of these students. Mr. Acklin informed the members that under Act 609 - School Choice Act, which had February 1 deadline, we had 24 students from Pulaski County Special School District to apply for transfer to our District for the 1991-92 school year. We discussed that the funding for these students would follow to our District. Mr. Daniels suggested that there should be a withdrawal form from magnet schools, the same as is done for M-to-M transfers. Mr. Acklin said that he was working on this with Little Rock administrators. Mrs. Bynum questioned Mr. Acklin on how far long we were with Middle School groupings for the 1991-92 school year. Mr. Acklin responded that he was working on this and thought that some rezoning might have to be done for Rose City Middle School. Mr. Daniels said that by his computer projections, it looked about SOSO, but all three Middle Schools would be very close. Mr. Acklin said he was not ready to make any elementary school projections, because we still hoped to combine Pine and Argenta. We discussed the need for transportation pool stops for elementary students, and Mr. Acklin stated he was skeptical that this would work. After a thorough review of the disciplinary reports, we pursued a long discussion of disciplinary actions. Mrs. Bynum expressed concern with so many suspensions. Mr. Jones said that he had heard grievances expressed with the SAC programs, and had considered consolidating SAC into one facility. Mr. Acklin responded that that could create problems with transportation. Mrs. Bynum requested that Mr. Jones include Mr. Acklin on the Disciplinary Committee. Mr. Jones agreed. Mrs. Bynum reported that Mr. Daniels had completed a breakdown of third nine weeks grade distribution for secondary teachers. The report has been furnished to each principal for their building. Mrs. Bynum expressed concern with the percentages of students making D's and F's and especially the percentages of black students. Mr. Jones was of the opinion that grades should not necessarily be the factor of whether a student is retained. Mr. Jones requested Mr. Daniels to prepare a breakdown of first semester grade distributions to more closely analyze. Special program enrollment was the next item discussed. Mr. Jones reported that of the District's 9,044 students, 1,028 were enrolled in Special Education programs, with a racial balance improvement of 11.31 percent over the last school year. The Districts' Gifted/Talented enrollment is 644 students with 456 white students (71 percent) and 182 black students (28 percent). Six other students are enrolled from other ethnic groups. Mr. Jones reported on the progress made in the Minority Role Model Program. Paul Scott, (Parent Coordinator), Anita Cameron, (Secondary Teacher),Jerry Bradley, (North Little Rock Boys' Club) and Charles Jones, (Secondary Administrator) have been working with Mrs. Bynum on the program, which will be called Project STORM. Thirty-five 11th-12th grade students have been identified to serve as Minority Role Models. A meeting of this full committee is scheduled for Tuesday, February 12, 1991. The next item discussed was activities planned for Staff Development for Desegregation scheduled for February 25. (See memo attached.) JoAhn Brown-Nash will share her educational experiences with the entire instructional staff during the morning session. Mr. Smith will address the Board's intent in corporal punishment. (See Smith memo attached.) Mr. Jones reported that 21 small groups of instructional staff will work with 28 facilitators in the following sessions: Cooperative Training, TESA, School Based Teams, Math Manipulatives, Crisis Intervention, Media personnel at Laman Library (selecting materials with minority students in mind), Critical Thinking, Compensatory Aide Instruction, Chapter I Instructional Assistants' Instruction, Secondary Counselor Intervention Strategies and Section 504 - Handicapped Provisions. Mr. Jones reported that summer school plans would be presented to the Board on February 19, 1991. He said that expansions were planned. He said that the elementary summer school would include kindergarten students at the Pike View campus, and grades one-three at the North Heights campus. He explained that by changing to different buildings, we were trying to avoid associating certain schools as a remedial campus. Mr. Jones said the Gifted/Talented Quest program would be held at North Little Rock High School-East Campus. He informed the members a transition program funded by a grant for \"At-Risk\" students the sixth grade going into the seventh grade was also planned. This grant would provide a two week program for 20 students, and would be geared to self esteem training. He said that we would offer an orientation to sixth graders where they would attend summer sessions in the middle school they would attend next year. Mr. Jones reported that Amboy Elementary would participate in the Accelerated Schools Project as a pilot school. Mrs. Ford, Principal, and her staff have committed themselves to this project for the 1991-92 school year. Mrs. Bynum addressed the scheduling plans at the high school level. Our \" Choices\" Program is being held at the West Campus on February 11 and the East Campus on February 12. The guidance department and departmental chairpersons will be available to explain to parents and students instructional offerings for the 1991-92 school year. Middle School counselors will offer the same type of programs at a later date for parents and students at the Middle School level. Mrs. Bynum reminded Mr. Acklin that full reports are soon due from Activity Directors. Mr. Acklin responded that the cheerleader tryouts would have to be scheduled by the Activity Directors. Mrs. Bynum mentioned that Committees of the Reorganization Task Force would probably be reviewing the spirit group selection process prior to tryouts. Mr. Morris reported on recruitment efforts. He stated we had already begun with our first career fair at Philander-Smith on February 6, and are registered to attend others at colleges and universities all over the state. He reported that we were ready to do the personnel survey on March 1. Mrs. Bynum asked if it would be agreeable that we change our meeting to the first Monday of the month. Mr. Acklin said it would not be possible for him to get a disciplinary report that early in the month. We agreed to keep the meetings on the second Monday of each month. Our next meeting was set for March 11. Meeting adjourned at 3:45 p.m Attachment I - Nll NORTH LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT North Little Rock, Arkansas Minutes of the District Desegregation Team Meeting on March 11, 1991. The North Little Rock School District Desegregation Team met on Monday, March 11, 1991, at 1:30 p.m., in the Board Room of the Administration Building. The following team members attended the meeting: Mr. James Smith, Mrs. Mable Bynum, Mr. Gene Jones, Mr. Bobby Acklin, Mr. Donald Watkins, Mr. Jim Morris, Mr. Greg Daniels, Mrs. Mable Mitchell, and Ms. Scharmel Bolling. Mrs. Bynum opened the meeting and furnished copies of the agenda. copy attached.) (See Tne first matter discussed was the comparison of disciplinary referrals for first semester 1989/90 and 1990/91. The total number of disciplinary referrals reflected an increase of 4.4% and disciplinary actions reflected a 17% overall increase in suspensions. Current year expulsions reflected a 44% decrease. Fewer expulsions and the establishment of an elementary suspension program at the Boys Club were cited as factors contributing to increased suspensions. Mr. Smith noted that far fewer referrals related to misbehavior on buses even though approximately twenty buses had been added by the Transportation Department. Mr. Smith questioned what percentage of the total referrals reflected individual students with several referrals. Mr. Daniels explained that the Computer Services Department could generate information to address this concern in an easy-to-read format. Mrs. Bynum requested that such a format be used for all monthly reports in the future. Mrs. Bynum expressed concern about the accuracy of coding disciplinary referrals. She requested Mr. Acklin to address this concern with Principals at the next Administrator's meeting. Ms. Bolling expressed concern with the number of students referred for possession of dangerous objects. She requested clarification of the District's Policy, noting a difference between the number of students referred for this infraction and the number actually expelled. Mr. Acklin explained that each incident is examined on an individual basis as he personally reviews every reported incident of possession of a dangerous object. Depending on the circumstances, some of the students are suspended rather than expelled. Mrs. Mitchell expressed appreciation for the use of discretion in recommending expulsions. Mr. Acklin also mentioned that all expelled students are referred to the Juvenile Courts School in order for student to continue earning academic credits. Unfortunately, some students elect not to attend. These students are not given the option of attending the Alternative School. It was noted that the West Campus has not recommended any students for expulsion. Mrs. Mitchell inquired as to why there have been more expulsions on the East Campus. Mr. Smith noted that the age of the students more than the size of enrollment was a major factor in the number of expulsions. Mrs. Bynum mentioned that often situations arising in the community result in campus misbehavior. Mr. Jones requested statistics from the West Campus regarding the incidences of older students electing to withdraw from school to avoid expulsion. Mr. Smith noted that next year all students must remain in school until age eighteen or graduation, therefore, an Alternative School Program will be significant in the District. Mr. Morris mentioned that District administrators had anticipated some increase in disciplinary problems due to the secondary school reorganization, which necessitated changes in assignments for many students and staff members. Mrs. Bynum added that we had been concerned about the large number of suspensions on the seventh grade campus last year, however, the number of current year suspensions for seventh and eighth grade students show a marked decline. We will continue to monitor disciplinary referrals for these groups of students, also. Mrs. Mitchell expressed appreciation for the East Campus staff, and confidence that they were working to ensure a safe educational environment for all students. She was concerned, however, about counselors needing more time to work directly with students experiencing difficulties. Mr. Jones questioned the need for a disciplinary referral category for the Bi-District Alternative School. Mr. Acklin advised the group of the school not being a suspension program, instead one designed for students with unique needs such as inability to cope with school, poor school attendance, or habitual tardiness. He stressed the importance of making this factor known in order to benefit students enrolled in this program. The next matter discussed was how to best provide information that monitors need to compare academic achievement of black students with that of white students. The lack of this information was cited by most first semester school teams. A procedure is needed to encompass disaggregated achievement test data, grades and graduation information. Mr. Jones will assemble a committee to address this concern and provide this team a report on findings and plans next month. Several members discussed the need to follow-up on the performance of students removed from basic classes. The team also discussed reviewing the performance of students assigned to teachers who have completed specific inservice programs such as TESA and Cooperative Learning. Elementary grade distribution sheets must be prepared by hand due to the absence of on-site computer terminals. This process requires more time. There is a need for standardization in relation to the secondary schools. Mr. Daniels stated that he was eager to bring elementary schools into the computer network. Mrs. Bynum acknowledged the District's financial situation, but stressed the fact that data collection is such a critical part of monitoring, therefore, constant accumulation of data will prove to be very cumbersom without adequate computer terminals. We next reviewed and discussed first semester School Monitoring Reports. Mr. Morris expressed the need for principals to correctly code building expenditures in order to document purchases of materials and supplies for each department. Other areas of concern discussed were those related to student discipline, one-race classes, parental involvement, and seating patterns for students, with the team making note to stress the importance of school personnel encouraging interaction between various ethnic groups. The team stressed the importance of Principals sharing the Monitoring Reports with their staffs so they can see the critical concerns, as well as how other schools are handling certain matters as reflected in the numerous positive comments offered by the teams. Mrs. Bynum shared reports prepared by Principals as responses to monitoring teams concerns. The final matter discussed was the Success Through Outstanding Role Models Program (S.T.O.R.M.). There are approximately fifteen North Little Rock High School-West Campus students who completed training February 25, and returned required paperwork. The three pilot elementary schools, Argenta, Pine and Redwood, have identified approximately twenty students for participation. An equal number of participants will be chosen from each school. Mentors will work with the mentees during school time, after school, and much telephone contact will be involved. Each child's needs will be unique and each mentor will convey to his mentee a message of being on his side. Plans call for mentors and mentees to have been paired prior to the March 17 meeting of the Bi-racial Committee. There has been long term interest from this committee for the development of such a program and some members have indicated an interest in meeting some of the mentors. Mrs. Bynum mentioned a plan to add tenth grade students prior to the end of the school year. These students could become replacement mentors for graduating participants. Ms. Bolling noted that Classmates for each school might be interested in helping with the STORM program by providing things for them to do or incentives for accomplishments of goals. Mrs. Mitchel expressed pleasure with the initiation of the program and advised the team that she would like to see a program started for female students at some future time. The meeting adjourned at 3:30 p.m. Attachment I-01 NORTH LITT~E ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT North Little Rock, Arkansas Minutes of Districtwide Biracial Team Meeting on May 8, l990 The North Little Rock Districtwide Biracial Committee met on May 8, 1990, at 5:30 p.m., in the Board Room of the Administration Building. The following committee members attended the meeting: Rev. Roger Silvey, Belinda White, Artha Minton, Lori Thomas, Felix Thibault, Gayle Wing, Sheryll Lipscomb, Themas Baskins, Robert Johnson, Charles Hunter, Valencia Power, Susan Shaunfield, Amanda Ware, Sue Bennett, Opal Goldsby and Anita Cameron. Several members of the administrative staff were also present. The media was repreadministrative staff were also present. The media was represented by a reporter from the Arkansas Democrat. Mrs. Bynum opened the meeting and introduced our guest speaker, Mr. Bradley Scott, Coordinator Region VI Desegregation Assistance Center, San Antonio, Texas. Mr. Scott cover~ a five state area and has conducted numerous workshops around :he United States in his efforts to effectively implement desegresation. Mrs. Bynum explained that Mr. Scott was presenting two days of workshops to three member teams from each of our schools in \"trainer of trainers\" sessions. Mr. Scott opened his address by stressing that the role and function of the biracial team was crucial in the implementation of our desegregation plan. He said that he would list our responsibilities in three categories as follows. (1) Vision - Taking a constructive look at education, scrutinizing policies to make sure we are meeting the needs of all students, never overlooking the perspective of parents and community and building a strong articulated vision of what education is going to be in our District in the future, in order to create holding power for students. (2) Data collection - This includes issues of student treatment, fair discipline, student access to programs, student perception, instilling a sense of belonging in students, curricular offerings and extra curricular activities. He stressed that as educators we were responsible to act as role models for students. (3) Feed back - Mr. Scott stated that the team was responsible for input in resolution of problems. Mr. Scott declared the goals of desegregation as: (1) ending racial isolation and segregation, (2) increasing racial uncerstanding and racial cross cultural competencies, (3) improving academic achievement and improving facilities, and (4) equipp~na all students with skills and knowledge in order that they can - achieve a good quality of life. He stated it would be very costly to implement, but further stressed that for every dollar spent up front for improvements of educational programs, it could cost the public ten dollars on the back side without the improvements. He pointed out that in the long run it was the best investment. Mr. Scott next explained the differences in equality and equity as applied in education. Equality - all students same access to all programs. Equity - comparabilities of student outcome, intervention, respond and address weakness of students' performance. Thomas Baskins questioned what to look at to evaluate implementation. Mr. Scott responded that District administrators would always be available to assist and answer any questions to help team members clarify an issue. He also stated that members were not to discount their own basic instincts and obvious interpretations. He pointed out that as members visited the different school settings that they would be able to feel that \"this school is good,\" or \"this school is bad.\" Felix Thibault questioned the timeframe. Mr. Scott responded that it would be an ongoing dynamic process, that we would never reach perfection. He stated we should strive to reduce isolation, help people to interact and insure quality educational programs. On the issue of achievement disparity, we need to not only close the gap between minority and majority, but strive to move everyone forward. Anita Cameron responded that we could not expect to move from equality to equity overnight. It will take constant and diligent work on all to bring about the change. Charles Hunter asked if members should go to schools to assess and to work with school teams. Mr. Scott responded that it was a legitimate function of the members to go to the different schools. He also encouraged team members to talk with each other. Mr. Scott concluded his presentation and turned the meeting over to Mrs. Bynum. Mrs. Bynum stated that due to confli\nThis project was supported in part by a Digitizing Hidden Special Collections and Archives project grant from The Andrew W.
