DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis framework describes a developmental, sequential, age-appropriate physical education program designed to provide students of all ages with the knowledge and ability needed to maintain an active, healthy life-style. Three major goals of the curriculum are that students should: (1) develop effective motor skills and understand the fundamentals of movement by practicing and analyzing purposeful movement; (2) develop and maintain a positive self-image and strive to achieve personal excellence in planned physical activities; and (3) develop appropriate social behaviors by working independently and with others during planned physical activity. The guide, divided into six chapters, provides concepts and strategies that form the foundation of a comprehensive physical education system for kindergarten through grade 12. The chapter titles are: (1) "A Vision for Physical Education"; (2) "Goals and Disciplines for the Physical Education Curriculum"; (3) "Physical Education Guidelines for Kindergarten through Grade 12"; (4) "Environment Needed for a Quality Physical Education Program"; (5) "Quality Instruction in Physical Education"; and (6) "Criteria for Evaluating Instructional Resources." A definition and outcomes of the physically educated person, a program advisory clarifying adapted physical education program services, and a list of publications available from the California Department of Education are appended.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKParents know how important good schools are when they are deciding where to buy a new house. That's why they are willing to stretch their budget for a home near a "good" school. But they should not be fooled by the tree-lined streets and expensive real estate - the neighborhood schools may not be as good as they think, according to the findings in Not as Good as You Think: Why the Middle Class Needs School Choice. The book takes readers on a driving tour of some of California's best neighborhoods and supposedly some of its best schools. Many parents have found out the hard way that despite what they have been told about their neighborhood schools, many of these students are not performing at grade level, let alone ready for college.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKNow in its third edition, California School Law is the only comprehensive source discussing how federal and state law affects the day-to-day operation of the state's traditional public, charter, and private schools. While the book is comprehensive, the authors have written it for a broad audience. California School Law has become a coveted desk-top reference for administrators, governing board members, school attorneys, union leaders, and policymakers. It also has been widely adopted as a classroom textbook in educational administration and education law classes. The first chapter provides an explanation of the legal framework within which California schooling takes place and key players at the state, district, and school level. Ensuing chapters examine student attendance and truancy, curriculum law, employment law, teacher and student rights of expression, the school and religion, students with disabilities, student discipline, privacy and search and seizure, and legal liability in both state and federal court. Also included are chapters on unions and collective bargaining, educational finance issues, and racial and gender discrimination. Appendices provide a glossary of legal terminology, an explanation of how to find and read legislative enactments and judicial decisions, and a list of sources for accessing law. The book's table of contents is included on this website. Law never stands still. To keep current with changing legal precedent, the authors maintain a cumulative update for the third edition at www.californiaschoollaw.org.
