The Administrative Procedures Surrounding Computer Scheduling At M.L. King Junior High, Diedrus U'Vonne Brown
Masters Theses
The use of a computer system to schedule students in a junior high school was the subject of this particular field study. This process has only been used for one year at Martin L. King Junior High School, and the administrative procedures surrounding this had not yet been spelled out, especially in specific terms. It was through observations and conferences with the principal, administrative assistant, and TIES (Total Informational Educational Service) personnel, that I felt a need to look more closely into the scheduling process and develop some guidelines for the administrator to follow.
The creation of this study was …

The Preparation Of A Student Handbook, Kenneth L. Miller
The Preparation Of A Student Handbook, Kenneth L. Miller
Masters Theses
The purpose of the field study project was to develop a functional student handbook for use at Crestwood School in Paris, Illinois. Crestwood School is a kindergarten through 8th grade elementary school and the initial intention was to produce a handbook for use at all nine grade levels. As the project took form, however, differences between the needs for grades K-5 and 6-8 became extensive to the point that it became obvious that separate handbooks would be required to fulfill the desired purposes. This project became, then, the production of the handbook for the middle school (6-8) grades.
Handbooks currently …

The purpose of this study was to determine if the political action efforts of a local teacher association resulted in the election of the union's endorsed candidates to the board of education.
In order to make this determination, this study examines five board of education …

Retention In Salem Elementary Schools, Charles M. Raglin
Retention In Salem Elementary Schools, Charles M. Raglin
Masters Theses
Social or chronological promotion has long been a practice of the public schools of the United States. The alternative, nonpromotion or retention, has in the opinion of most psychologists and sociologists led to emotional and sociological trauma for the child. Another and probably the most cogent objection, is many parents oppose nonpromotion and are unwilling to accept the social stigma of "flunking." Children's achievement is a status symbol which profoundly affects families in many communities.
The writer contends that unless parents are directly involved in the decision early in the nonpromotion year, retention will not culminate in satisfactory achievement. Cooperation …

An Outline Of The Procedures To Reduce Budget Expenditures In The Edwards County Community Unit School District No. 1 For The 1978-79 Fiscal Year, Gary J. Schurz
Masters Theses
The purpose of this study was to discover ways to reduce expenditures in the budget of the Edwards County Community Unit School District No. 1 for the 1978-79 fiscal year in the light of a projected loss of revenues complicated by inflationary trends.
The need arose due to three factors:
- A loss of a portion of the district's state aid due to a previous overpayment.
- A rise in the assessed valuation which would mean an additional loss of state aid: It was projected that local monies collected would not offset the loss of state aid.
- Spiraling inflation was creating an …

Black Attitudes Towards Social Affiliation With Whites And Its Influence On Academic Achievement, Alvin Finderson
Black Attitudes Towards Social Affiliation With Whites And Its Influence On Academic Achievement, Alvin Finderson
Masters Theses
If blacks are to compete successfully in white academia, they must be able to communicate and interact with white students and professors. Acceptance of middle-class white students with an academic achievement orientation, as friends and equals, should enable or assist blacks in developing positive attitudes toward academic achievement. This in turn should positively affect scholastic performance. The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between black attitudes toward social affiliation with whites and successful academic performance on integrated campuses.
This hypothesis was tested by measuring the association between black self-reported grade point averages and their responses to an …
