I have a son at Central High School and two children who are graduates of Central, My two graduates have been admitted and are attending very prestigious colleges with academic scholarships due to the quality education they received in the LRSD. I am deeply concerned with the fate of our district and the selection of top administrators for superintendent and associate superintendent. Many other patrons are concerned about the stability of the LRSD which seems to be getting worse instead of better. I sat with a group of parents this past weekend who discussed growing concerns about moving their children to private schools if competent educationally centered leaders are not selected to run the LRSD. The discussion began focusing on the lack of knowledge of the present Superintendent in knowing the background of people in the present administration who are secretly pushing to be recommended as interim superintendent. These concerns originated from several patrons of Forest Park Elementary School as well as myself, who were asked to support the recommendation of Forest Park's former principal as interim superintendent or associate superintendent to the school board. Arma Hart. This past principal is For those of us who know Ms. Hart's self serving nature, we were outraged to know that she is being secretly considered for one of the top administrative positions. We became aware of this woman's manipulative techniques when she used some influential patrons to promote her personal agendas while disregarding the true education needs of our children. In various social settings she has reminded people of how the best qualified person was not chosen for the Desegregation Monitoring Office. She indicated how friendships and the desire to keep the power in certain circles kept her from being selected for the Desegregation Monitor's position. She has said the LRSD would definitely be forced to comply with the desegregation plan if a competent and qualified person was in charge, continues to unrelentlessly push for power by supplying inaccurate information to uninformed people in strategic She positions that will promote her agendas. She pretends to support causes that these people believe in, in order to gain their confidence and support. Mrs. Hart has, again. seized the opportunity to take advantage of the disarray in the top administrative vacancies in the district to promote her own agenda of gaining power without regard for the needs of our children.Mrs. Brown, there are people who have found Mrs. Hart difficult to work with and are fearful of this woman's unrelenting push for power to gain control. Even concerns have been voiced from certain Pulaski County administrators about remaining top administrators left in our district as possible candidates that they hope will not be placed as interim Superintendent, Mrs. Hart's name led the list. We are hoping that someone who was familiar with Mrs. Hart's professional background would listen and act upon this information before Mrs. Hart's name is recommended publicly. If her name is mentioned publicly, that obnoxious John Walker would find another means to discredit our district publicly with another discrimination accusation.

McCormack, clerk DE? clerk WADE POOLE PLAINTIFF VS. NO. BILL BARNHOUSE, a Former Employee of the Little Rock School District\nIndividually and in His Official Capacity: DR. HENRY WILLIAMS, Superintendent of Schools of the Little Rock School District\nand the BOARD OF EDUCATION OF THE LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT DEFENDANTS 1. COM PLAl NT Jurisdiction is pursuant to 28 U.S.C.  1343. Relief is sought pursuant to 42 U.S.C.  1981, 1983, and 2000(e). 2, Plaintiff is an African American citizen of the United States who resides in Pulaski County, Arkansas. He has been employed by the Little Rock School District (hereinafter LRSD) since January 3, 1994 in the position of Supervisor of Security Personnel. He brings this action to secure his rights to equal protection and due process of law guaranteed by the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution and by the statutes provided herein. He also seeks to require the defendants to adhere to their own rules and personnel selection policies and practices. c\n\\wp60\\poole.cpt C0 'd 00 I 01Oi Bd a3\u0026gt;iTti(n\"n nhot woaj Sf i t\u0026gt; I tSo I z I Z 0 I3. Defendant Bill Bamhouse is a former of employee of the LRSD who took or participated in taking the adverse actions which plaintiff challenges in this Complaint. Defendant Henry Williams is the Superintendent of Schools of the LRSD. The Defendant Board of Education is a public body corporate which has the responsibility for setting policy and employing staff to oversee, manage and operate the public schools of the LRSD. 4. This is an action for declaratory judgment and to have the defendants mandatorily enjoined to provide plaintiff a fair opportunity to compete for a job promotion. This is also an action for damages against Defendant Bamhouse for having engaged in acts of job pre-selection which have adverse racial and due process consequenc. 5. Plaintiff is a graduate of Park College in St Louis, Missouri with a Bachelors Degree in criminal justice administration. He has a history of public and military employment. He has been employed by the LRSD since January, 1994. 6. In May or June of 1994, the LRSD announced a position vacancy the administrative position of Director of Safety and Security. The position announcement set forth the qualifications for the job and included a requirement that applicants have a college degree in a field related to safety and security. The announcement did not indicate that educational qualifications could be substituted or waived. 7. After Plaintiff Poole applied for the position but before Defendant Bamhouse became aware of plaintiffs application, Bamhouse indicated to plaintiff that: \"we need to fix this [position announcement] so Bobby can get the job.\" As c:\\wp60\\poole.cpt 2 0  d 0 0 I 0 T L Oi    d W H 0 r WOdd S't S h I tee I/T3/0 1Defendant Bamhouse was talking, he was rewriting the job description so as to fit the employment qualifications of Bobby Jones. Jones is a white person who is a retired policeman for the Little Rock Police Department When employed by the LRSD, Jones was perceived by many black police officers to be racial in his treatment of black police officers and of black citizens. 8. Jones did not meet all of the objective qualifications set forth in the position announcement or the job description. The defendants allowed Bamhouse to rewrite the job description notwithstanding the fact that Bamhouse had already \" resigned the position. Defendants proceeded to ratify Bamhouses action without there being a formal meeting by the Board on the matter. I I 9. The defendants violated their own practice, if not their own policy, in I  i writing or rewriting a job description or in allowing a job description to be rewritten in i I order to favor a particular applicant. That the application was written by a white employee to favor a white associate has racial implication. 10. The Defendant Henry Williams indicated to plaintiff that the selection process would be fair and nondiscriminatory. He also indicated that the comparative qualifications of the applicants would be subject to review by a bi-racial panel of citizens and/or district employees prior to making a selection for the position. That panel would also interview applicants and make recommendations before the position was filled. Defendant Williams promised Plaintiff Poole an interview before the panel prior to his own action upon any recommendation that panel would make to him. 11. On information and belief, Defendant Williams did not follow through c:\\wp60\\poole.cpt 3 ^0  d 00X01^2 Oi Bd daxTBn'n nhot woad Z fr : t\u0026gt; I 16 6 I / X Z0 Iwith his promise in that he did not convene a bi-raciai selection panel to interview applicants. During this same time, the District was engaged in the process of the selection of principals in the School District. Interview panels were also promised for those panels by Defendant Williams and the District for that process as well. Defendant Williams chose not to use panels in some cases and in other cases, such as in principals and other staff members, he chose to use panels. He simply used panels when he wanted to and did not do so when he wanted to\nthus, the districts polices were violated. I 12, Bamhouse recommended Jones to Williams as Barnhouse's successor and represented that Jones met all applicable criteria. This was not true. Upon the announcement of his retirement, Bamhouse then recommended that Jones act as Director of Security until the position could be filled by the Board. Defendant Williams accepted Bamhouses recommendation. That action constituted favoritism due to race or color. 13. Plaintiff met the qualifications for the position\nhe applied for the position\nthe District continued to solicit applicants for the position after plaintiffs application\nand the District changed the qualifications of the position in order to fit and favor a white employee who did not meet the qualifications that certain School District officials wished to have the job. 14. By defendants aforestated conduct, plaintiff has been deprived of due process and equal protection of laws under the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution by 42 U.S.C.  1981 and 1983, and of his rights to be fairly and equally c\n\\wp60\\poole.cpt 4 S0  d 0 0101J: 0 i    d MH0r WOdd 8* :frT t66 T / I 3/0 Xtreated pursuant to the District's own policies and procedures. Plaintiff has been i I denied an opportunity to have his objective qualifications considered by the school board in his quest for a promotion. Plaintiff has therefor been deprived of well- defined, well-estabrished legal rights which are set forth in the statutes cited herein. He has no effective recourse for the discrimination he has suffered other than this action for declaratory, equitable and injunctive relief. Any other recourse would be so costly, time consuming and uncertain as to deny effective relief. WHEREFORE, plaintiff prays that this matter be set for early hearing and. thereafter, that the Court enter an Order declaring that plaintiff has been subject to employment discrimination due to his race or color. Plaintiff also prays that the Court declare that the employment process was tainted and otherwise rife with overtones of pre-selection and nepotism in violation of law and district policy. Plaintiff further prays that he either be awarded the job position or that the job be declared vacant until appropriate consideration of the initial job requirements. As an alternative, plaintiff prays for damages and a declaration that he is entitled to fill this vacancy or to be paid as if he were holding the position and then that he awarded the next comparable promotional vacancy for which he qualifies. Plaintiff further prays for his costs, including reasonable counsel fees. Respectfully submitted, JOHN W.

We have discussed various labor matters over the past several weeks involving persons represented by your office. This letter is to outline the recommendations I will make to the Little Rock School District on resolving most of these matters. Please understand that it appears that these recommendations will be accepted by the District, but final numbers must be obtained prior to me receiving final authority, where indicated. Ms. Betty Forbes, in return for the execution of a release agreement to be drafted by me, will remain in her current position at the same salary she received in her previous assignment in the superintendent's office. as long as she remains in this position. There would be no reduction in her salary Should she voluntarily change positions, her salary would be computed in accordance with District policies and procedures on such voluntary transfers.

Ms.Mr. John W. Walker October 26, 1995 Page 2 Forbes will receive any raises she would have otherwise received in her prior position and her personnel file would not reflect any negative conduct or performance as it relates to the transfer from the prior position to the current position. Mr. Don Phillips and Ms. Debra Hamilton will be compensated the difference in pay (for the 1995-96 school year only) in the compensation they would have received had they remained employees of the LRSD when compared to the compensation received as employees of Laidlaw Transit. Please recall that the calculations on these amounts have not yet become final and the final authority to agree to this resolution can only be granted after those computations have been received and considered. in The District takes the position that Mr. Christopher Watson is different position from Mr. Phillips and Ms. Hamilton. Further, it is our information that Mr. Watson did not suffer any difference in pay from moving from the LRSD to Laidlaw. I have talked to Ms. Joy Springer regarding this matter as well as the others to be discussed herein on several occasions, whether my information is correct. I will verify Ms. Debbie Jackson was formerly employed in the Information Services Department of the District. She was involuntarily transferred to the Purchasing Department at the same pay and benefits. It is my understanding that she voluntarily accepted another position with lower pay at McClellan High School. Under the circumstances, any loss in compensation is the result of her own actions. However, Joy and I did discuss the possibility of Ms. Jackson going back to Purchasing at the same pay as she had received in Information Services. I will check to determine whether the position is still open and whether she can be given a definite job description and job title. If so, it would be my recommendation to the District that she be allowed to return to that position. Zola Tyiska was reassigned by Brady Gadberry to her position at Forest Heights Junior High School. However, subsequent to the reassignment, Ms. Tyiska submitted a letter of resignation due to an illness, now become moot.

It is also my understanding that the nature of his illness would likewise prevent him from timely notifying others when he would be unable to open the school himself.

I have seen many, many boards in my long career, and this one is one of the two best ones for whom I have worked. They are gracious, consistent, hard-working, smart, focused, and caring. I will always remember them both as a group and as individuals, all of whom I consider to be my friends. I thank each of them for all that they have done for the Little Rock School District and for their support of me personally. I shall never forget any of them. I h ave a Iso e njoyed w ide a nd w arm s upport i n t he D ivision o f I nstruction. We have worked very hard these last five years, and I have been awed by the commitment of this staff, their knowledge and talent, their willingness to change, the time they willingly spend after hours, and their team spirit. These people work miracles every day, and they do so without complaints for the most part. Many are warm friends, in addition to being colleagues. I will miss them all, and I wish them well. The Districts principals also deserve my recognition. They have also worked very hard, cared a great deal about their kids and their schools, and were willing to make changes to improve achievement. They earned my respect. I wish also to express my respect and gratitude to Chris Heller. He is the finest school district a ttorney with whorn I have worked these m any y ears. Heisearing, positive, intelligent, strategic, and effective, and I enjoyed tremendously working with him on behalf of the District in our successful efforts to achieve Unitary Status. Ill always remember him as my friend. Finally, I wish to thank the group of parents and volunteers who rallied behind me in the first few weeks I was in Little Rock and who provided consistent support and volunteer time to help me and the District move forward. We are better now in parent and community involvement because they provided the motivation and support for change. They too became personal friends, and Ill miss them all. They know who they are. Little Rock is a wonderful communitywarm, gracious, caring, and generous. I will always be grateful that I came here and was allowed to work in this District on behalf of the communitys children. I will always remember Little Rock fondly. My decision to leave has been exceedingly difficult, for I felt at home here, I cared about our work, and I enjoyed working with those who shared my passion for improved student achievement.1 Dr. Kenneth James February 13, 2003 Page Four In closing, I wish to thank you too. Dr. James, for your leadership, for caring about the kids in this District more than the politics, for being willing to step out and do the right thing, and for your persistence in seeing things through. Youve had great challenges every day since youve been here, and youve handled them well. I wish you well! Yours truly, Bonnie A. Lesley, Ed. D.

Matilda Buchanan, Central High School English Department chair, with over 20 years of noted success, has resigned. Fortunately, other Arkansas students will benefit from her dedication and talents. Little Rock students, however, lose the opportunity to be inspired to reach and excel under the guidance of a master teacher who cares so much. I am a supporter of public schools. Both of my daughters are graduates of Central High School. Public education is essential in maintaining an acceptable quality of life in our community. It is a disturbing situation to watch Buchanan and other outstanding instructors leave public school service. It is particularly upsetting to believe that leaving was apparently due to open and continued harassment by a superior and that this was allowed to continue by the school administration. I hope individual teaching styles and successful curriculum plans will not be subjected to intolerable arbitrary dictates. Dedicated teachers are a rare and diminishing treasure. They need support, not donnish scrutiny.

Bernd aide, challenged by Walker, gains provisional state credentials BY CYNTHIA HOWELL Democrat-Gazette Education Writer Janet Bernard, a Little Rock School District associate superintendent for 7'/2 months, obtained an Arkansas provisional teacher certificate Tuesday after attorney John Walker raised questions about her qualifications. Tuesday afternoon, Walker filed a motion in the 10-year-old Pulaski County school desegregation lawsuit case asking U.S. District Judge Susan Webber Wright to find that the district had violated its desegregation plan by mismanaging funds and assigning unqualified personnel to administer the district. Wright will hold a federal court hearing on Little Rock budget issues at 9:30 a.m. Friday. Walker said he thought Bernard was not certifiable under Arkansas law to be a secondary school administrator because she lacked sufficient college credit hours in school administration above her masters degree. Bernard could not be reached for comment Tuesday afternoon. Walker also asked that Superintendent Mac Bernd be required to repay personally any money unlawfully paid to Bernard from the districts teacher salary fund. He said Bernard should not be paid from any other district funds if she lacks appropriate certification. The one-year provisional certificate that Bernard obtained Tuesday was granted on the basis of her teacher certification credentials in another state, said Dr. Burton Elliott, director of the General Education Division of the state Department of Education. The provisional certificate dates back to Jan. 1  standard for such certificates, Elliott said. Bernard was an elementary school principal in the San Marcos School District in San Diego County, Calif., before beginning work Aug. 1, 1992, in the Little Rock district. She earns an annual salary of $65,000 and gets a $1,200 car allowance. Bernards lack of an Arkansas teachers certificate came to light last week during a school board hearing on the suspension of Central High School Principal John L. Hickman Jr. Bernd assigned Bernard to supervise Hickman this school year, and she has become the key investigator of allegations against the principal. Those allegations include mismanagement of school funds and sexual misconduct involving students. No dates have been set for resuming the suspension hearing. Walker, who represents black intervenors in the Pulaski County school desegregation lawsuit, is Hickmans attorney as well. He is trying to persuade the Little Rock board to reinstate Hickman. In response to questioning by Walker, Bernard said last week that she had neither obtained an Arkansas certificate nor submitted her credentials to the state Department of Education, She said she thought she had a year to do so. Elliott said Arkansas educational standards do not require districts to have associate superintendents. As a result, the state Education Department did not place the Little Rock district on probation this year despite Bernards lack of an Arkansas certificate.Arkansas Democrat (gazette  SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1993  tle BOBBIE HAWKINS GOODWIN, of LitRock, died Thursday, Novem- 5 ber4,1993.

District Transportation Director Brad Montgomery (no relation to Williani Montgomery) said Little Rock police stopped the driver for speeding. He had just dropped off one load of students at a school and was on his way to pick up another toad. After stopping the bus, police learned one or more warrants had been issued for William Montgomerys arrest. Brad Montgomery said police believe William Montgomery had a suspended drivers license. Brad Montgomery said his staff checks drivers for licenses at least twice a year. A check earlier this school year did not show William Montgomerys license had been suspended, he said.

Matthis was interim superintendent between July 2 and Oct -l-l -The decision on the payment -angered board member Pat Gee, who said Friday that Matthis has neither the doctorate degree nor the experience as a superintendent that Bernd had. But Superintendent Henry Williams, who recommended the payment, said in a telephone interview Friday that other people who served in interim positions last summer were paid at the same rates paid their the predecessors. Those interim positions included the interim associate superintendent for educational 'programs, the support services manager and the associate superintendent for desegregation. Matthis was formerly an associate superintendent for educational programs. She was given a pay increase from $68,000 to $85,000 when she was named interim superintendent in July, but the increase didnt equal Bernds salary. Her current salary as deputy superintendent remains at $85,000. School board members approved the one-time, $6,353 payment Thursday night when they voted 5-1 on a package of several items listed as consent items on the printed agenda. Gee was the single no vote. The Arkansas Democrat- to the board practice of voting Gazette was provided at the school board meeting with documents listing all the new personnel, the personnel who were leaving the district, the financial reports and the donations. The memorandum recommending the payment to Matthis was omitted from the press packet, and no specific mention of the Matthis recommendation was made during the meeting. Gee said Friday she complained about the payment but did so in a hastily called closed session after the vote was taken. Gee has regularly objected on a package of consent items. Personnel and finances are two of our most important responsibilities. I think we should vote on them separately, she said. Williams apologized for the lack of any public announcement on the salary adjustment. I dont know why you didnt get it, he said. It was an oversight. We did it (the recommendation) at the last minute and put it in the boards boxes prior to the board meeting. 1It was not intentionally not talked about to hide or bury it, Board President Dorsey Jack-son said Friday.

Woman convicted in ice-pick murder of mother, 75 BY LINDA SATTER Democrat-Gazette Courthouse Reporter Greed, explosive rage and a desire to rid herself of her mothers control were cited Wednesday as a Pulaski County woman's possible motives for stabbing her 75-year-oid mother to death with an ice pick Oct. 15,1992. After a daylong trial, Judy Diffee, 48. was convicted of first-degree murder in the death of her mother. Edith Durham of 18509 Kanis Road. A jury of nine women and three men  mostly middle-age to elderly  took less than an hour to find Diffee guilty. They took less than half that time to recommend a 40-year prison term, which Pulaski County Circuit Judge David Bogard imposed. Durham, a cook in the Little Rock School District for many years, was found dead Oct. 16. 1992. in a house on land she and her daughter shared. She had 22 stab wounds in her chest, back and left arm and bruises on her head and face. Diffee. who lived in a metal shed she used as a small house about 50 yards away, testified that she found her mothers body on a couch about 8 a.m. She said she found an ice pick on the floor nearby and, thinking one of her two adult sons had been there that night, tried to hide the pick' to protect him. Both sons were among the family and friends who testified against her. Diffee alone testified on her own behalf. Sheriffs Sgt. David Adams said that after Diffee gave him written consent to search her shed, he saw her leave the shed and put something in her purse. He said he followed her behind a barn, where she removed something from the purse and placed it in a box. w V, : M2 gSB fees two sons. Scott and Mark. Bonnie England, a friend oi Durham, said that when she spoke with Durham by telephone the night of her death, mother and daughter were fighting because Durham wouldn't take Diffee to get ice cream. She said she heard Diffee yell at her mother. I wish you were dead. England said she had twice seen bruises on Durham, who reluctantly admitted her daughter had inflicted them. Mark Diffee testified that his mother tackled him one day in a fit of anger and told him, Ill de you like I did Granny. Diffees ex-husband, Eddie Diffee, said he and Diffee divorced after 24 years of marriage after she tried to attack him with an ice pick as he slept. COURT DATE  Judy Diffee (left) leaves Pulaski County Circuit Judge David Bogard's chambers with her attorney, Andrew Beavers, before jury selection in her first degree murder trial Wednesday morning. He said he touched her on the arm, startling her. and she said, \"I wouldn't hurt my mother on purpose.\" Adams said he opened the box and found trophies and an ice pick inside. Diffee testified that she made that statement out of confusion and shock. Adams and Roger Swope, a crime scene specialist at the Little Rock Police Department, testified that no' blood could be detected on the ice pick.

The school district is attempting to make $9 million in budget cuts and adjustments to balance next years revenues and expenditures. School districts are required by law to operate with a balanced budget. Matthis, 58, supervises three assistant superintendents who supervise all school principals.

She is the districts second- highest ranked employee. Matthis has been a district employee for 29 years and the deputy for the past two years. She said Wednesday that she has been ill for a long time and had to be hospitalized for a short while last September. Matthis medical leave coincides with a school board decision last week to cut $400,000 in administrative expenses to help balance the 1995-96 budget. Superintendent Henry Williams has said the deputy superintendents position is one of 12 administrative jobs to be eliminated, beginning July 1. Also to be eliminated is the associate to the deputys position, now held by Sterling Ingram. As the deputy superintendent, Matthis supervises more than a dozen curriculum coordi- natbrs and the districts assistant superintendents, who oversee the\u0026lt; approximately 50 school prihcipals. Williams has said he will replace the deputy position with a new associate or assistant superintendent position. The salary for the\ndeputy is $86,200. Salaries for assistant and associate superintendent positions in the district range from $60,000 to $70,000. The administrative cuts are just one component of a package of budget cuts before the school board. Other proposals not yet voted on include shortening the the-school year by two days and cutting employee pay accordingly. .The district mailed about 2,500 certified letters to teachers and administrators late last week, notifying them of the potential reduction in pay. Additionally, the district has sent layoff notices to 33 teachers. However, those people may not actually lose employment.

Brady Elementary Chicot Elementary Forest Park Elementary Gibbs Magnet 7915 West Markham 11100 Chicot Road 1600 North Tyler 1115 West 16th TRANSPORTATION If adequate early notification of emergency conditions has not been accomplished through the media, buses will make every effort to pick up students at their assigned bus stops in the morning and take them to their assigned school. If the assigned school is inaccessible due to icy conditions, flooding, downed power lines, electrical outages, etc., the students will be taken to an alternate school for safekeeping, supervision, and communication. Alternate schools will be selected by the Transportation Department based on conditions at the time. Patron questions and non-emergency communications should not be referred to the Transportation Department during emergency operations. It is vital that the Transportation Department telephones and staff are accessible for emergency purposes. The Transportation Department will make eveiy effort to provide the schools with information needed to respond to patron concerns. Principals will not provide \"private line\" telephone numbers to patrons. These lines must be kept open for emergency communications. Page 7 of 22ATTACHMEOT 3 DECISION NOT TO OPEN SCHOOL OR TO DELAY THE OPENING OF SCHOOL Page 3 SCHOOLS School personnel are expected to make every possible effort to get to school during severe weather situations and are expected to remain at the school until released by the Superintendent. This is particularly important due to the possibility of the school being selected as an alternate school for student safekeeping and supervision after the schools regular students have been released. Principals are expected to accept and provide supervision for all students delivered to buildings designated as alternate schools. Principals are expected to coordinate closely with the Transportation Department on the release of buses and bussed students during all emergency situations. FOOD SERVICE Principals are expected to notify their food service manager as soon as they are informed that students are being diverted from their building or that additional students are being sent to their building. Although plans do not envision a likelihood that additional food service support will be required,the possibility does exist and must be part of our planning. PLANT SERVICES Principals are expected to notify Plant Services of any failure or imminent failure of their building support system. Plant Services must, in turn, notify the Transportation Department to ensure that students are not delivered to, and/or are immediately removed from, a building that is unsafe for student occupation. Plant Services must ensure that the Transportation Department is aware of power outages, downed power lines, etc., which would make a school unsafe or inaccessible. The Director of Plant Services will provide any vehicle maintenance or recovery support available upon request of the Director of Transportation. Page 8of22ATTACHMENT 4 Revised November 1993 DECISION TO NOTIFY PERSONNEL OF EMERGENCY CONDITIONS School Year 1993-94 Sudden paralyzing disasters can strike school communities anywhere. When they do, school disasters become emergencies for school personnel. Whether a crisis arises by accident or willful violence, schools can be disrupted and become focal points of fear, pain, and chaos. In case an emergency condition occurs, the Superintendent or appointed designee will immediately confer with senior staff. If the emergency condition appears to warrant the implementation of the Districts Crisis Management Plan (as explained in ATTACHMENT 5), the following procedures will be used to notify administrative staff. 1. Notification of Personnel - The Superintendent or appointed designee will notify the Deputy and Associate Superintendents, Manager of Support Services, Director of Communications, Assistant Superintendents, Norma Rodgers, and if necessary, the police and fire departments.

When that is not appropriate, however, it may be necessary for an employee to move to a vacant position that carries a different salary, contract term, and/or working condition. In the event an employee, through no fault of his/her own, is moved to a position that carries a lower salary, contract term, or working condition, the following will be the policy of the Board of Directors: A. B. If the Board of Directors makes a decision prior to the statutory deadlines for making changes in public school employee contracts for the following year, the affected employee will be notified in a timely manner and any subsequent change in position, salary, or working condition will adher to the standard established for the salary, new position. If the Board of Directors makes a decision after the statutory deadlines for making changes in public school employee contracts for the following year, the affected employee will retain his/her salary for the remainder of the current contract year. The employee will be notified in a timely manner that the terms of his/her contract will be changed to confoirm to the terms established for the position. The exception to this provision is displaced employee accepting a in the case of a new position that is covered by a labor agreement, in which case the salary and other terms of the labor agreement will be effective immediately upon assuming the new position.c w: J :i*2 Little Rock School District To: Mrs. Ann Brown, Desegregation Monitor From: Estelle Matthi nterim Superintendent Re: Request for Memoranda Date: August 23, 1993 I have AUG 2 0 1993 'C\u0026amp;Q Qf ise\nM: been advised that ODM has requested copies of written directives from me to employees.

As you You will also find a memorandum dated August 11, 1993, directive of the same date. After the hearings on June 24, 1993, regarding the proposed site for the new Stephens Interdistrict 1993, and a School, Judge Wright advised Jerry Malone that the Court would not impose a requirement that ODM make requests for information only through designated channels. The Court, however, strongly encouraged the LRSD to develop some procedure to ensure that District administrators and attorneys know what information is being transmitted by the LRSD. This was discussed with you on Friday, July 9, 1993, when Jerry Malone and I met with you in your office. The attached directive attempts to put in place a process whereby ODM will get timely and accurate information, while at the same time, the District attempts to ensure that commitments, policies or procedures are not made, altered or otherwise affected by individuals without actual authority to do so. As you are aware. the LRSD has several thousand employees. Accordingly, there might be some initial growing pains as this directive becomes fully operational. Prompt notification of any concerns by your office to my office will ensure that any problems are handled expeditously.

One, the change allows the hiring of an administrator from within the without causing him/her to work for a reduced daily rate of pay in the administrative position. For example, many teachers with experience will not accept administrative positions such as assistant principalships because they would have to accept less compensation than they would receive as a teacher. For example One, the The second placement change would restrict the salary credit for someone being hired to an administrative position from outside the District to receiving credit for only seven years, limit on previous credit in the current regulation, would make the limit the same for teachers and administrators.

Credit for previous acceptable administrative experience will be granted at the rate of year of credit for each year of experience. one For administrators new to the Little Rock School District, previous experience will be limited to seven years credit so that initial placement will not be higher than step eight on the salary schedule.

The system was created by, and is governed by, state statutes. Members of a Board are chosen by citizens of a district to represent them and the state in the legislative management of public schools. The Board of Education has the dual responsibility for implementing statutory requirements pertaining to public education and local citizens desires for educating the communitys youth. While the Board has an obligation to determine and assess citizens desires, it should be understood that when citizens elect board members to represent them in the conduct of public education they at the same time endorse their representatives with the authority to exercise their best judgment in determining policies, making decisions, and approving procedures for carrying out the responsibility. The Board therefore affirms and declares its intent to: 1. Maintain two-way communications with citizens of the District. The public will be kept informed of the progress and problems of the schools, and citizens will be urged to bring their aspirations and feelings about their public schools to the attention of this body which they have chosen to represent them in the management of public education. 2. Establish policies and make decisions on the basis of declared educational philosophy and goals. All decisions made by this Board will be made with primary emphasis given to the purposes set forth, most crucial of which is the optimal learning of the children enrolled in our schools. 3. Act as a true representative body for citizens of the District in matters involving public education. The Board recognizes that ultimate responsibility for public education rests with the State of Arkansas, but individual Boards of Education have been assigned specific authority through statute. The Board will relinquish none of this authority since it believes that decision making control over the childrens learning should be in the hands of local citizens as much as possible.

Im pleased that the district has formulated a timetable for this important action. I have a question and some observations about the schedule. I notice that the policy categories arent in the alphabetical order in which they are catalogued in the board policy manual, so obviously the district decided to approach the review other than alphabetically, which makes sense. But what criteria did you use to prioritize the order in which the district would review the policies? This schedule reflects a decidedly top-down view of the district with the critical areas of students, instruction, and school-community relations relegated to the bottom of the list. Operationally, it appears to present some problems. For example, we know that no later than the January 1999 registration period, the district must have underway a massive public relations campaign to explain and sell the new student assignment plan to the community. Yet this schedule doesnt provide for revisiting the policies that should guide school-community relations until June 1999. Also, students and instruction are what schools are all about, and we constantly talk about the importance of putting students first. Yet this schedule, which wont focus on students and their instruction until late next spring, doesnt comport with a student-first focus. You may have very sound reasons for the order of this schedule of which Im unaware, which is why Im interested in knowing the rationale behind it. I would expect the positioning of topics on the schedule to reflect the districts priorities and align the review with the rhetoric. Otherwise, it sounds like ready-fire-aim. 7 Little Rock School District RECEn'eo 1 0 1998 September 9, 1998 OFFICE OF O'5SEGRGATION MONITORING Ms. Ann Brown Office of Desegregation and Monitoring 201 East Markham, Suite 510 Heritage West Building Little Rock, Arkansas 72201 Re: Schedule of School Board Policy Review Dear Ms. Brown: Upon receipt of your letter regarding the scheduled order or rationale behind review of LRSD Board Policies, the following information should be noted: The scheduled review of Policy Index Indicators was carefully established with a broad array of factors that came into play. It was important to take into consideration each section while recognizing the varied timeframes necessary for their completion (i.e. a small amount of time with little refinement necessary for the Bylaws, prior work that had been completed over the summer on the foundation piece and the necessity to allow Mark Millhollen ample time to know our direction for fiscal management. The student and instructional sections are spring reviews for the next school year and do not effect the current academic year. We attempt to limit changes which are mid year. The second issue you raised about school! community relations and timeliness of the consideration given potential policy changes necessary in redistricting is noted. We did not indicate that in areas and t or issues such as this that we will not be promulgating new or modified rules for student assignment nor any other major initiative. Even in those instances we always consider delaying the effect or grandfathering to minimize the negative effects of change wherever possible. We concur quality of instruction is a major component of the revised plan. Work teams in a number of areas are in place and focused to produce quality student results . .. particularly as it relates to the WE SHALLS. The full review of all instructional policies and their coordination with these initiatives is also scheduled to be completed in the spring of the current academic year. We recognize the enormity of this task and are committed not just to introduction but to full implementation. 810 West Markham Street  Little Rock, Arkansas 72201  (501)374-3361I am not versed on the position ready-fire-aim, as you have noted but recognize this significant and most important task of the Policy framework being a process. An area noted first or last does not equate or reflect its degree of importance. We analyzed the schedule and policy framework taking into account the potential impact on people, giving equal weight to timeliness of any change and its communication to get maximum benefits for students, parents, and staff. Dr Gamine has noted in recent conversations, we are not just about becoming unitary but more importantly we are about producing maximum instructional results for our students.

Because a major thrust of the revised plan is centered around the implementation of policies and procedures leading to the equity assurances of the plan, ODM is studying the procedures the district is using to insure compliance with those plan commitments. We are aware that a committee of top-level administrators has compared board policies with the revised plan and that policies have been amended or developed to assure compliance. Please identify, by policy or regulation number, those board policies and regulations which were developed or amended as a result of this committee review including those already adopted as well as those in the pipeline for adoption. 1 am aware that you do not categorize board policies by their relation to the desegregation plan, but it is clear to me that you have made significant efforts to avoid lapses and voids in plan compliance. 1 want to relate, for the record, the actual processes you have used and to describe the resulting board policies and regulations.

Therefore, the policy was written to address those obligations, too. The attached regulations do not require Board approval and are presented for informational purposes. However, if the Board has concerns or suggestions about the regulations, we would be happy to address them.LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT NEPN CODE\nACG COMPLIANCE WITH THE REVISED DESEGREGATION AND EDUCATION PLAN, TITLE VII, TITLE IX, ADA, SECTION 504, OR OTHER SIMILAR REQUIREMENTS The purpose of this policy is to affirm the Board of Educations commitment to compliance with the Districts Desegregation and Education Plan and the Civil Rights Law of 1964 as amended.

For example, the Instruction division will be responsible for integrating the Plans requirements into the curriculum development, staff development, and other similar functions of that division. The associate superintendent who heads the division will be the responsible person for the components of the Plan that are appropriate for his/her division. Through the internalization of the philosophy and the integration of the Plan into the Districts structure, the respective divisions will proactively monitor compliance. The associate superintendents will take appropriate action with respect to incidents of non-compliance and take steps to prevent future similar incidences of non-compliance. Communication and Training All employees will be provided training on the Plan and the Districts commitment to the principles of equity and Plan compliance. Each employee will be provided a copy of the Plan and a Plan compliance handbook.

Definitions  A complaint is an allegation of action or inaction by the District or its representatives in violation of the Revised Desegregation and Education Plan, Title VI, Title IX, ADA or Section 504, or the implementing regulations, or other similar requirements.  The complainant is the student, patron, or employee bringing the complaint.  \"Employee\" means a person who is a full or part-time employee who is on the payroll of the District.  Patron means any students parent or other resident in the LRSD.  The \"responsible official means the employee designated by the District to coordinate its efforts to comply with and carry out its responsibilities under the abovementioned requirements.  \"Student\" means a person enrolled in one of the schools operated by the corporation.  \"Superintendent\" means the Superintendent of Schools or his/her designee.

The complaint should be brought to the administrator/supervisor at the point where the possible violation exists. Within ten days after receipt of the complaint, the administrator will attempt resolution with the complainant in an informal manner. If a satisfactory informal resolution cannot be reached, the complainant and/or the administrator may seek the assistance of the Districts responsible official. Step 2 (Formal Complaint) If the complainant is unable to secure a satisfactory resolution through informal means at step 1, the complainant may file a formal complaint. The complaint should be filed with the LRSDs official who has district level responsibility for that area. The complaint must be filed within ten days of the response of the administration at step 1. The complaint should be in writing and give a concise but thorough overview of the alleged problem or violation and indicate the specific relief requested. All relevant documents also should be included. The responsible official will investigate the complaint and collect whatever information is needed to make an informed decision. The responsible official will issue a written finding within fifteen days of the receipt of the complaint or inform the complainant of the reasons that it is not possible to issue a finding in that time frame. If a finding cannot be issued within fifteen days, it will be issued as soon as practicable. 2LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT NEPN CODE\nACG-R2 (continued) Step 3 (Appeal to the Board of Education) If the complainant is not satisfied with the finding at step 2, he/she may request a hearing with the Board of Education. The request for the hearing must be made within ten days of the written finding issued at step 2. The request for the hearing must include a statement of the complaint, the finding of the responsible official from step 2, and any response to the finding that the complainant wishes to present. It should include the reasons that the complainant believes the finding is in error. The individual members of the Board will review the information presented with the written request for the hearing prior to following months Board agenda meeting. The Board will decide at the agenda meeting whether or not to place the appeal on the agenda for a hearing. If the Board decides not to hear the complaint, the written finding of the Districts responsible official will be the position of the LRSD. Timelines The failure of the complainant to comply with the identified timelines will be considered to be an abandonment of the complaint. Effect of Settlement Any settlement of a complaint will be applicable to that complaint only and will not be binding authority for the disposition of any other complaint. Anonymous Complaints The LRSD is committed to compliance with its legal obligations. As a result anonymous complaints will be thoroughly investigated and handled in a serious manner. However, anonymous complaints are more difficult to substantiate and investigate. Therefore, complainants are encouraged to be open, forthcoming, and identify themselves to assist in a satisfactory resolution to the complaint. The LRSD recognizes that some students, patrons, and employees will not come forward with legitimate complaints because of a fear of retribution. The LRSD will not condone or tolerate reprisals against complainants by any of its employees. Employees who exercise retaliatory behavior against any complainant will be appropriately disciplined. 3LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT NEPN CODE\nACG-R2 (continued) J Reporting Outside the Process In instances where there is a genuine sense of potential reprisal and it is not realistic to report the complaint at the lowest administrative level, the complaint may be made with the Districts responsible official. The responsible official may refer the complaint to another administrator in the departments organizational structure to attempt a resolution. 407/08/1999 15:54 3240567 JQD PAGE 02 Little Rock School District July 8,1999 Mr. John Walker 1723 Broadway Little Rock, AR 72206 Dear Mr. Walker: 1 received your broad request\" for information dated July 7.

Please report to work on time every day. If you must be late, you are to call your supervisor so that she/he will know when to expect you. Frequent or chronic tardiness is not acceptable. 2. Please do not leave your work before the end of the work day - again unless your supervisor has given you specific permission to do so. We understand occasional needs to leave for doctor appointments or other emergencies, but the employee needs to be at work the full day except on rare occasions. 3, Please radically limit the frequency and duration of any telephone calls you receive or make to conduct your personal business. If there is no alternative, everyone understands occasional phone calls, but frequent and long conversations are not acceptable. 4. Do not leave your work to run personal errands, to have your hair cut/styled, to purchase personal items, to visit with friends, etc. Our Division is constantly criticized for these practices, whether true or not. Please do not do anything to feed the grapevine. 5. Answer the telephones.

The subject files pertain to economic conditions, labor and anti-black violence, peace groups, peonage, Southern politicians, Mexico, the Spanish Civil War, and Kennedy's own campaign for a U.S. Senate seat from Florida in 1950. Articles, clippings, and pamphlets concern civil rights, international affairs, the Ku Klux Klan, labor (particularly CIO) organizing, and southern politics. The photographs depict WPA work in progress, attacks against Negroes (including lynching), and various organizations. The many periodicals include two issues (1947) of Eugene Talmadge's The Statesman, twenty-one issues (1943-1950) of The Southern Patriot, and eight issues (1939-1943) of Lillian Smith's North Georgia Review. The correspondence covers the period 1935-1979, and includes as correspondents students and peace groups, several committees to aid Spanish loyalists, social reform and civil liberties groups, government agencies, writer's organizations, publishers, literary agents, newspapers and magazines, and the New York Public Library, which obtained some Kennedy manuscripts for its Schomburg Collection in 1952.

To that end, the Little Rock School District will provide: (1) a program of basic education for all students\n(2) programs that address the special needs of students (emotional, physical, and mental)\nand (3) enrichment opportunities such as art, music, and athletics. Through an organized program of studies, each student will experience academic success and will learn and appreciate responsibility and productive citizenship.

Therefore, it must be based upon the results of the 1984-85 school year. For purposes of clarification, the mission statement adopted by the Board of Directors will be the general goal of the District. All activities of the District will be centered around that mission statement. The goals that are stated in the first year of the six-year plan are goals that have been established that will be addressed in the six-year plan. These are the specific plans around which the plan will be written. The annual goals that are adopted by the Board prior to the beginning of the school year will be used as specific measurements by which the District will be able to evaluate its growth. GOALS FOR MEASURING GROWTH 1 GOALS FOR THE SIX-YEAR PLAN MISSION STATEMENT 1. The District administrators will evaluate the degree to which the 1984-85 goals were reached. 2. 3. The Board of Directors will approve the goals for the 1985-86 school year, (see attached) 1 I The District will hold three public meetings for the purpose of receiving input from the citizens concerning the 1986-87 school year. The dates for those meetings are listed below. i Rockefeller Intermediate School - September 19, 1985 Pulaski Heights Junior High School - September 23, 1985 Parkview High School - September 30, 1985 , I 4.

The Superintendent will appoint grade level and/or subject area committees composed of staff members to study their respective areas. Recommendations will be presented to the Superintendent prior to December. 1985. 7. The individual buildings will begin to plan how they will receive community input for developing tneir building plan. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 1 The Superintendent will prepare for the Board a six-year plan. The plan will be presented to the Board prior to January 22, 1986. The District will conduct a series of public meetings for the purpose of sharing the plan with the public and for the purpose of receiving input on the plan. Those meetings are scheduled as listed below. On or about January 28, 1986 On or about February 5, 1986 On or about February 13, 1986 The Board of Directors will conduct a series of public work sessions on the proposed six-year plan. The Board of Directors will discuss the proposed six-year plan at regularly scheduled Board meetings in January, February, and March. The public shall have the opportunity to address the Board about their concerns relating to the planning report. The Board shall adopt the six-year plan on or before May 1, 1986. The Board shall adopt the individual building plans on or before May 15, 1986. The District and the individual building plans will be submitted to the Arkansas Department of Education prior to July 1, 1986. The District will evaluate the degree to which the goals established for 1985-86 school were attained and report those to the Board and the public prior to September 1, 1986. The Board will adopt goals for the 1986-87 school year prior to the beginning of the 1986-87 school year. The Superintendent will announce the dates for the public meetings for the purpose of hearing concerns of the public on items included in the 1987-88 school year prior to October 1, 1986. The Board will adopt or modify the mission statement prior to December 1, 1986. -3- 1 Revised 8-28-85 1 IITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT GOALS/OBJECTIVES 1985-86 1. 2. 3. At least eighty-five (85%) percent of the students in the Little Rock School District will master the skil1s/competencies on the Arkansas Minimum Performance Test (grades 3, 6, and 8) and the Little Rock School District Criterion Referenced Test (Grades 1, 2, 4, 5 ) in the 1985-86 school year. At least seventy-five (75%) percent of the students as determined by performance on a standardized test measure will show individual growth of at least one year and one month or be at least one year above grade 1evel. The school climate at individual buildings will improve as evidenced by: a. b. decrease in behavioral incidents that cause classroom and building disruptions and result in administrative referrals and/or suspensions. increase in parental participation. I I r c. improved attendance. d. reduction in the number of class tardies. e. f. improved building cleanliness. increase in student participation by race and sex in extracurricular activities. (Where the race is in a minority increase must be shown.) (1) more black student participation in academic and service club activities. 4. (2) more white student participation in athletic activities. The difference between the percentage of black students above grade level and the percentage of white students above grade (5) percent as measured by stan- level will decrease by five dardized tests. 5. 6. Teacher absences due to short term illness (1-19 days) will be decreased by ten (10) percent over the 1984-85 school year. Ninety (90) percent of the parents who complete the \"Quality of Education\" survey that will be conducted during the 1985-86 school year will rate the quality of education being provided in the Little Rock School District as satisfactory. (This goal will not be used in principal's evaluation.) -4-I PRIORITIES First Priority A.

These are. as the rafpnnri-zation of second priority suggests, not as important as the areas in the first priority. These are areas in which the educational system should assist but for which it should not assume primary responsibility.

Nationally, it is likely the administration will continue to follow policies that will \"boil the fat out\" of the economy, and the Arkansas economy will continue to do worse than the national picture. It is unlikely that federal funds for education will increase significantly even if the voucher system gets the treatment it should. Since Congress seems to have no better handle on the national economy than the administration, it is questionable that the 1988 election will have any positive effect on the economy. 1' 11 ! P I f id I 2. LOCAL REVENUES  Amendment 59 will prevent growth in local income i' from personal property until the millage rate equals that of real property (that may take ten years). Utility property income will be frozen for the first five years and will begin a reduction process in the sixth year. The growth in real property will depend on the state of the I* I economy. Ue have projected annual growth for the period at the average annual rate experienced for the past nine years. 3. STATE AID  Besides the general impact of the national economy, the agricultural outlook specifically will restrict state income in the near In addition, our form^a aid nay be reduced the first two years of the period for \"repayment\"/excess formula payments in the past two future. years. In light of these constraints, we have projected small Increases In state aid for the period. Ue have projected operational funding for the gifted and talented program for the entire period. 4. FEDERAL AID  We have not projected the Magnet School Assistance Grant in 1986-87 because, although two-year funding is the normal life of the grant, there are no guarantees. Ue should have more specific information about the grant before the 1986-87 budget Is adopted. The projection of federal aid Is baaed on Indirect costs and Impact aid. 5. BAL ANGES  The district should maintain a minimum of *1 million in the contingency throughout the period.

I  I I1 I X. -64- I ' *1 I I  I T n 'I: PROBLEM NUMBER ONE J 1 The current school bus fleet consists of ninety-one (91) route buses and sixteen (16) special education vehicles, the majority of which must be replaced within the next three (3) years to ensure current service levels. A. Proposed Solution I i I I I 1. Accelerate the procurement cycle of buses by entering into lease-purchase agreements. 2. Offer for sale all vehicles considered to be unrepairable. B. Analysis I i i The current bus fleet has forty-eight (48) 1977 Ford buses, most of which have in excess of 100,000 miles. The District is averaging five (5) breakdowns a day with a high (worst case) estimate of eleven (11) on any one day. Replacement parts, particularly engines and transmissions, are becoming increasingly difficult to obtain. Recognizing replacement requirements, the District has obtained ten (10) new buses each year for the past four (4) years. Continuation of this replacement cycle is required to maintain current service. A five year lease-purchase plan will allow the procurement of buses at approximately $6,400 per bus per year with a purchase option of $1 at the end of five years. The total cost of a bus 1 would be approximately $32,000 as opposed to $25,000. This would appear to be the best method of updating and increasing the fleet within yearly budgetary constraints. C.

Participation in the federal child nutrition program provides free and reduced price benefits for approximately 9,500 students. Because of the federal legislative process, there is no stability in funding from year to year. A. B. Proposed Solution j I Operation of the lunch and breakfast programs will continue under the federal and state guidelines, based on available funding for 1986-87. Analysis Program income from federal reimbursement is not expected to increase by any significant amount. Child nutrition programs are up for reauthorization by Congress in 1985. Federal section 4 reimbursement is currently received for all reimbursable meals served in the program. Reimbursement for free meals.

The funds for this program are from continuing federal grants which provide for payment of educational food experiences only. The program is an integral part of the basic skills curriculum for all students in K-3, emphasizing language arts, reading, and math skills to teach nutrition concepts. Skills are cross-referenced with the Early Prevention of School Failure Program, the Cumulative Reading Record Folder, and Mastery Skills Record for Mathematics currently used by the District. A. B. C. Proposed Solution Funding application will be made to the State Department of Education to continue the Little Rock School District nutrition education program for all students in grades K-3 for 1986-87.

Proposed Solution The computer system should be able to capture and manipulate student test scores for both standardized tests and District-wide tests for all District students. Analysis The addition of standardized and District test scores would make it possible to produce statistics and studies of student perform-ance without the current investment in staff time. Also, the addition of these scores to the student record would become a part of the student's historical record, which could be used for longitudinal studies. The District is currently considering an in-depth evaluation of each child for placement in the gifted program. Specific computer assistance will be required in order to effectively utilize standardized test scores as a component of this evaluation and to be complete the evaluation in a timely manner for student placement. C. Operational Plan 1. 2. 3. Objective To add the ability to capture and manipulate student test scores to the District's computer system by June, 1987. Implementation Strategy During the 1985-86 school year, an analysis of the requirements for effective use of such test scores and the best method for collecting the scores will be performed. Appropriate procedures and computer programs will be developed and tested using the results of standardized tests given to students during the 1984-85 and the 1985-86 school years.

A recent cover story in Time states that \"...each year more than a million American II II teenagers will become pregnant... some 30,000 of them under age 15. Arkansas leads the nation in the number of teenage pregnancies, and many of these occur in Pulaski County. Clearly the problem of alcohol and drug abuse and the problem of teenage pregnancy must be addressed more effectively than we have been able to do thus far. A. Proposed Solution The Little Rock School District will provide instruction on drug, alcohol, and sex education in grades 4-9. B.

Presently, teachers have a heavy burden grading tests. There is a need to give some type of district-wide standardized tests that assures uniformity in teaching and learning without placing an additional burden on the teachers. A. Proposed Solution B. C.  I It is recommended that the District develop a bank of test questions for each of the subject areas taught. These test questions will be stored in the District's mainframe computer. When it is necessary to give quarterly, semester, and year-end tests, such tests could be generated by requesting from the computer a certain number of test questions which are selected from the storage bank. This procedure would allow uniform expectations of teaching and learning. Analysis Although the curriculum that is used in the District is uniform, it is necessary to develop a uniform level of expectation for subject material that is mastered by students. By developing a computerized testing program where tests can be generated from the computer from a \"bank\" of questions, testing for uniform knowledge is possible. It is also possible to develop an answer sheet that can be graded by using scanning procedures. By developing such a procedure, the District can make its expectation level more uniform and aid the teachers in their areas of responsibility. replace essay tests. Operational Plan 1. 2. Objective This system cannot and should not, however. It will be used only for objective tests. To develop a system where the computer can store, select, and print computer tests for all subject areas taught in the District. The objective is to develop a system that will grade the tests. The purpose of developing this system is to make uniform our expectations of students in all subject areas. Implementation Strategy The District will begin this process in the 1986-87 school year by making sure the instructional objectives for each subject area are updated, and the plan for developing the computerization will begin in 1986-87. In 1987-88, it is planned that the areas of English, mathematic, science, and 1 -82- 1 1 iS  social studies at the junior high level will be completed. In the 1988-89 school year, all other courses at the junior high level will be included. During the 1986-87 and 1988-89 school year, the process of writing test questions and including them in the computer will take place for all subjects at the senior high level. It is planned that by the 1989-90 school year, this process can be used for all subjects in grades 7-12. I A 3.

Cost Staff Time  1 I -83- I rI PROBLEM NUMBER SIX For several years, the junior high school has suffered from an identity crisis that remains somewhat unresolved. Some educators believe the junior highs should be abolished and replaced with middle 4 schools. Others believe the existing junior high structure, with a different program, would best meet the needs of early adolescents. There are some indications that young adolescents of today are maturing faster than they used to and that the typical six-three-three grade pattern no longer works well for today's students. Other concerns are that junior high schools too often are simply miniature versions of high school (complete with emphasis on subject matter mastery) with little regard for growth characteristics and special needs of early adolescents. All of these concerns point to the need for reviewing the total junior high program. In addition to these concerns, the Arkansas standards will require that several courses be offered at the seventh and eighth grade levels which are not now required by the Little Rock School District. The present six-period day will make it difficult if not impossible to provide all the required courses, to students. Many electives will be unavailable I A. B. Proposed Solution Appoint a task force to review the total junior high program and make recommendations to the Superintendent regarding curriculum, scheduling, staffing, and extracurricular activities. Analysis J Besides apparent differences that exist between District offerings and state requirements, there are some obvious concerns with the overall effectiveness of the junior high program. Attention needs to be given to such issues as cognitive development of early adolescents, learning styles, physical and social maturation. 11 teacher qualities\" most needed by those who instruct junior high youngsters, appropriate extracurricular I activities, and guidance and counseling needs. The scheduling of classes should be reviewed to determine if a different system of instructional delivery might be more appropriate for the junior highy school. Other issues include the opportunity to develop I learning and study skills under the direction of trained personnel, the opportunity to explore career interests, and the need to establish programs in drug, alcohol, and sex education for junior high youngsters. -84- I I C.

The costs for redesigning the junior high program will be developed in the report of the Task Force to the Superintendent. -85-PROBLEM NUMBER SEVEN Many students in our District would like to have the opportunity to take additional courses beyond what is available to them within a six-period day. Additionally, the new standards will require that new courses be added to the curriculum. Some of these courses will be required. This is a special problem for the junior high program. : 1 A. Proposed Solution Provide an extended school day for junior and senior high school students so that they will be able to take additional courses and thus receive a more comprehensive education than would otherwise be possible. B. Analysis i1 It will be difficult, if not impossible, to offer all the required courses necessary to meet the standards within the current six-period day. While consideration has been given to a seven-period day, such a decision would mean shortening class periods and thus reducing individual teacher-student interaction within a given class. At the same time, many students would like the opportunity to take additional courses beyond those required for graduation. From a cost perspective, it would be difficult if not impossible to employ teachers to teach an additional hour. A method for extension of the school day that is cost effective is needed. 1 C.

I I I I E -89- I 9 I I PROBLEM NUMBER NINE The District has provided a comprehensive staff development program for its staff members for several years, but it has been unevenly utilized. Some administrators and teachers avail themselves of every possible opportunity to upgrade their skills and learn more about effective educational practices. Others are either reluctant participants or choose not to participate at all. One of the concerns regarding staff development is how to get employees oriented to the philosophy and program of the District while at the same time not adversely impacting on instruction time for 4 students. There are disadvantages to programs which operate only after hours, on the weekends, and during the summer, but clearly, the impact of removing teachers from their duties in the classroom in order to receive inservice instruction training must be carefully assessed. At the same time, if a mediocre teacher's performance can 4 improve as a result of participation in a program during the school day, that too must be considered. During the 1984-85 school year, at least two schools whose teachers were out for seven half-days to participate in PET showed gains in achievement on the SRA test. 4 Another concern has to do with providing training opportunities for administrators and support personnel and for providing school-based staff development programs. Without appropriate leadership from principals, it is unlikely that any lasting change will occur in the instructional practices of teachers. At the same time, unless principals receive the training they need, they can hardly be expected to emerge as instructional leaders of their schools. Further, specially trained teachers have unique needs that are not always appropriately addressed by the District's staff development model. A. B. Proposed Solution Establish a staff development program for all District employees and Board members which will provide systematic training in issues and concerns vital to the District and which will enhance the ability of the identified groups to carry out their responsibilities more effectively. Analysis 1. Effective June 1, 1987, the State Department of Education will require that each district develop and implement a plan for professional staff development and inservice training for school board members, school and district administrators, teachers, and support staff on a continuing and regular basis throughout the year. -90- -I.  1: C. 2.

I 11 ii J I J 9 'I * PROBLEM NUMBER TEN In order to avoid the emphasis that is being placed on minimum competencies as being an acceptable level of work for all students, it is necessary to try to develop an attitude or atmosphere for learning that accepts the best a student can do as the minimum level of performance. A. B. Proposed Solution In order to try to create an atmosphere for learning and achievement, the District will develop a series of steps to promote learning for the sake of learning without any differentiation through the use of grades. Those steps will be listed below. The District will expand the opportunities for students to learn by developing an academic summer school program. This will be a \"set\" program that will become an automatic part of the summer school offerings each summer. Admission to the classes that are offered will be open to any student who wishes to pursue the subjects that are taught. The District will develop a lecture series. The lecture series will be developed for the purpose of exposing students in the Little Rock School District to some of the nation's politicians, academicians, and newsmakers. The District will consider developing the use of a voluntary scholar's test. The purpose of the test, which will be voluntary, would be to give students the opportunity to know to what degree they have mastered academic material. No differentiation will be made on any diploma. Analysis For the past several years the Little Rock School District has worked hard to improve the basic skills of its students. While the basic skills have improved, the District has not developed an attitude that indicates that learning for the sake of learning is important. The above steps are proposed in order to try and create the idea that not only can all students learn but that developing ones own talent and interests can be done in various ways. The academic summer school is proposed in order to try to expand the opportunities for students to take interesting and challenging classes. The lecture program is proposed in order to give students the opportunity to be exposed to national figures in various areas. The scholars test is proposed in order to try to give students an opportunity to self-evaluate their academic development. -93- 1 i ____3-t C. Operational Plan 1. 2. Objective The objective is to develop and instill an idea of academic performance in the students in each of the buildings in the Little Rock School District. By using these activities, the importance of academics can be emphasized without additional emphasis on grading and acceptance into programs based on prior performance. Implementation Strategy .JH 1! 3. 4. 5. 1 It is proposed that implementation of the proposed plan be completed by the fall of 1986, with the exception of the scholars test. It is anticipated that the scholars test will be available for all students at the end of the 1987-88 school year. Responsibility Responsibility for the program will be shared by the associates superintendents. Evaluation I Evaluation of this program will be measured by the participation in the academic summer school program, attendance at the lecture series, and by the number of students who take the scholar's test.

With the increased cost of utilities, it is necessary for the District to use as many as possible of the \"low energy consumption days\" for student attendance. Recently, the Arkansas General Assembly passed legislation, which was later modified, that emphasized the importance of schools scheduling student attendance days to begin after Labor Day of each year. Temperatures increase significantly after Memorial Day\ntherefore, it is necessary for the Little Rock School District to use as many of the days available between Labor Day and Memorial Day as possible since these are usually lower energy consumption days. A. B. C. Proposed Solution It is recommended that the Board direct the administration to negotiate a change in the manner in which the District has dismissed school for the Arkansas Education Association Convention and to study the alternatives for changing the use of spring vacation during the 1987-88 school year. Analysis ihe District has tried various energy management plans in the past. Some have been more successful than others. The District will again have to become more energy-conscious as a result of the Grand Gulf settlement and anticipated increases in the price of natural gas. This matter is further complicated by the requirement of the new state standards to increase the number of student days from 175 to 179. between Labor Day and Memorial Day. There are a given number of days Unless more days between those two dates are used for student attendance, school days will have to be used either prior to Labor Day or after Memorial Day to a greater degree than they are now used. This not only reduces the effectiveness of teaching because of the heat but also increases utility costs. Operational Plan 1. 2. Objective To better utilize the dates that are available between Labor Day and Memorial Day for student instruction by reducing the days when students are dismissed for other activities. Implementation Strategy To ask the Board of Directors to direct the administration to change the practice of dismissing school two days for the AEA convention. To examine the possibility in future years I' I I i I I E -96- 19 fl of better utilizing the days now used for spring vacation and/or Christmas vacation. 1 3. Responsibility Responsibility for this project will be that of the Superintendent of Schools and those to whom he delegates certain areas of responsibility. 4. Evaluation Successful completion of this proposed solution will be the reduction of utility consumption and by expanding the number of days of student attendance. I. b bl 5. Cost None I 1 -97-9 Bl PROBLEM NUMBER TWO Despite the District's efforts to remediate students who are placed in remedial or \"low\" sections of a subject, too many students are still allowed to remain in a \"lower track.\" A. Proposed Solution I i Beginning in the 1986-87 school year, no student will be promoted beyond the sixth grade who has not been evaluated in a manner that indicates that he/she has the ability to be successful in the seventh grade. I Beginning with the 1987-88 school year, the Little Rock School District will have only two levels of required classes: regular and honors. The classes that are separated because of content level such as Algebra I, Algebra II, or Geometry, will remain. In the 1988-89 school year this requirement will be moved to the eighth grade. I In the 1989-90 school year, it will be moved to the ninth grade and on through the succeeding years until it includes the twelfth grade. p d B. Analysis There is a need to educate all students to a level of competence that enables them to be successful once they get out of high school. Presently, too many students are not required to master a minimal level of knowledge that will enable them to be successful in ensuing years. By phasing out the present levels that place students in different groups, we will ensure that all students have at least a minimal level of knowledge. Remedial programs will need to be developed other than summer school. These remedial programs can only be developed, however, with additional funds. Nonetheless, it is best to set the requirement and the expectations of all students rather than allow the number of students who presently go through school performing at such a low level. C. Operational Plan 1. Objective 1 To ensure that all students achieve a minimum amount of knowledge in a subject. 2. Implementation Strategy 1'! It is recommended that this procedure be phased in in order to prevent any additional hardships to those students who have already reached the junior high level or grades above junior high without having mastered the minimum requirements. Again, remedial programs should be established to help teach students and will be done if money is available. -98-a 1 1 II 3. Responsibility The responsibility for this effort will be that of the two Associate Superintendents. 4. Evaluation I, i I? 5. The success of this proposal will be measured by the elimination of the present grouping patterns and the increase in the number of students who master the minimum skills. Cost None 1 11 1 I 1 I -99-9 PROBLEM NUMBER THREE At the high school level, students are assigned by the computer to certain classes. The computer is not able to anticipate the fact that students have had teachers in previous years and failed the class or identify situations where learning and teaching styles don't match. The computer also is not able to know of personality conflicts between specific students and specific teachers. As a result, there are a i! large number of transfer requests early in each semester. In addition, there are a large number of students who have difficult semesters or difficult years because of the teacher to whom the student was assigned. ' I I I A. Proposed Solution I i ' B. 1 C. It is recommended that at least one of the high schools voluntarily accept on a trial basis the responsibility for developing a system where students are allowed to select their teachers and the period they want to take the particular class. Analysis It is necessary to try to adopt a plan that accommodates students in not only selecting a class, but also selecting the hour in which it is taught and the teacher they would like to have as an instructor. Student-teacher conflicts can be reduced and schedule changes can be substantially reduced. The most common concern that has been expressed about this idea is that students are not able to select teachers for themselves that are in their best interests because they will select the teachers who are the II easiest.\" Principals who have been involved in this type of scheduling, however, indicate that this is not so and are in favor of this process. By trying this on an experimental basis in one of our high schools, we can determine the degree to which it is successful and whether or not it should be continued and expanded to include the other high schools. Operational Plan 1. Objective To develop a scheduling system which allows the students to select not only their subjects but the hours in which the subjects are taught and the teacher that will be teaching the particular classes. I I 2. Implementation Strategy During the 1986-87 school year, high school principals will be questioned about their willingness to volunteer in such a project. After a high school has been selected, the scheduling process will be started for the spring of 1987 and will take effect in the fall of 1988. -100-9 I 3 3 2 3.

A. Proposed Solution To develop an interview handbook for the selection of certified personnel. B. Analysis The development of an interview handbook for the selection of certified personnel will provide assistance in the interviewing, evaluating, and selection of certified personnel. The handbook will also provide for some standardization in the selection of teaching personnel when a number of people are involved in the interviewing and selection process. I i I C.

Cost Printing and binding $ 1.000 -102-p.-iT PROBLEM NUMBER FIVE A problem exists in finding an adequate method of preparing first-year teachers to teach in the Little Rock School District.  I' i  S-l Each year the Little Rock School District spends a substantial amount of funds to pay for substitute teachers. During the 1984-85 school year, the District spent in excess of $700,000 for substitute teachers. In addition to the amount of money spent on substitute teachers, the quality of instruction provided by substitutes is substantially below the level of instruction provided by the regular classroom teacher. It is becoming increasingly difficult to attract competent young professionals to the teaching staff and keep classroom teachers in the classroom. A. Proposed Solution To address the problems stated above, it is recommended tht the District institute a \"differentiated staffing\" plan. B. Analysis There is a need to provide training for first year teachers in the Little Rock School District, to provide an available source of competent substitute teachers, and to develop a means of providing a career ladder or some way of keeping professional teachers in the classroom. The differentiated staffing plan would incorporate three basic ingredients, include an entry level group of teachers. The first would These individuals would be employed in the \"training\" part of the program. Although all individuals would be college graduates, they will be assigned to work and be supervised by a \"master teacher.\" They will receive additional training in the areas designated by the District such as the Program for Effective Teaching, etc. and will serve as substitute teachers. II It is hoped that this pool of training\" staff will provide the source from which we will employ regular classroom teachers for the following year. The second level is the level of regular classroom teacher, is the same level that the District presently employs and the responsibilities will be the same. This ihe third level would be called the \"career\" category. After a given number of years of satisfactory performance, a regular classroom teacher would be eligible to be placed at the II level. career\" 1 i! The \"career\" level teachers would not only be placed on a different salary schedule, but they would form the nucleus from which department chairmen, master teachers, and course instructors would be chosen. The individuals at the II career\" level would be eligible for extra work during the summer to work on curriculum and instruction, performance based. All promotions would be -103- 7 C. Operational Plan 1. Objective The objective is to provide the District with a source from which it can draw first-year teachers who are well-prepared to go into the classroom, a reliable source of substitute teachers who are more competent than those from which we draw at the present time, and an incentive plan that will recognize, encourage, and reward career teachers in the Little Rock School District. 2. Implementation Strategy It will not Implementation will begin in the fall of 1986. be possible for us to employ all of the first-year teachers that will be needed in the fall of 1986 and create a pool of \"training\" teachers. We will attempt to begin hiring the \"extra\" staff members and developing a pool. The District will seek grants and other means of trying to establish the training pool. t I During the 1986-87 school year, the District will attempt to develop the complete career ladder process with the appropriate levels and appropriate evaluation instrument being developed. Full implementation is planned for the fall of 1987. I 3. Responsibility r The ultimate responsibility will be under the direction of the Superintendent of Schools with specific parts of the program being assigned to the Associate Superintendents, the Manager of Support Services, and the Director of Personnel. 4. Evaluation I I i The success of this plan will be dependent upon its implementation and the degree to which the quality of instruction from first-year teachers and substitute teachers I is improved. Evaluation of the career ladder element of the plan will be through staff surveys. I 5. Cost I 1 The cost is dependent upon the number of teachers that can be hired at an approximate cost of $15,700 per new teacher, including fringe benefits. I I I 1 I -104-7 PROBLEM NUMBER SIX The need exists within the Little Rock School District to eliminate pre-school registration for students who are attending the same schools as the previous year. It would be the goal of this system to reduce the number of days of registration and the manpower used in filling out registration forms. It will, however, be necessary for students new to the District and new to the school to pre-register. A. Proposed Solution Have only two days of registration. The pupil data forms will be entered into a computer and these students placed on a printout. The school would need to send any changes to the Pupil Accounting Office on a change form. B. Analysis Through computerization of our registration process, the office personnel will be able to plan more efficiently and effectively for the upcoming school year. Also, fewer days will be necessary for registration. i I' C. Operational Plan 1. Objective 2. 3. All children attending the same school in the LRSD will be able to attend school without pre-registering. Implementation Strategy a. b.
