She comes to us from the North Summit School District. Christine Huley. currently principal at Wasatch Junior Hich will become the administrator of grants. Christine was the Excel winner from the administra- i tion area this year. Her replacement at Wasatch has not been named yet The Utah State Board of has released their list of priorities that they will focus on for Education the next two years. They are: increased funding for education, quality professional teachers and administrators in every school, improved Applied literacy. Technology and accountability. All items are extremely important. but the Applied Technology area has special meaning for students on the Wasatch Front. Although we have more young people attending schools in comparison to any place in the state, the Salt Lake metropolitan area does not have an Applied Technology Center (ATC). The closest center is in Davis County. Supporters of acquiring an ATC believe that an equity issue has resulted when state funding has been appropriated in the past to build and maintain these other centers, but stu- - dents on the Wasatch Front are not technical training. special task force committee has been set up by the legislators to discuss potential issues of the Applied Technology Centers. Speaker Stephens who chairs the committee has suggested the task force study the following issues: (1) Governance of applied technology education in the state. jl. ETT3 Weeks offered the same opportunity for A i (2) The role of community colleges in the siatc and specifically the relationship between Salt Lake Community College and the Wasatch Front Applied Technology Center (established two legislative sessions ago. but not funded for operation). (3) Costs of providing applied technology services for public and higher education and who should deliver these services. (4) Duplicate funding. (5) How other states govern applied technology education. The next meeting for the Applied Technology Education Task Force is July 13, 2000 at 2:00 p.m. at the Capitol building in room 303. Senator Ron Allen, Representative Ron Bigelow, and Representative Judy Ann Buffmire. serving constituents in the Granite School District area are members of the committee. I encourage parents to become informed on this issue as it has Designed arou strong educational implications for our children. The Granite Board of Education has committed monies and support for this program for the students of our district. Other districts in the Salt Lake area have been heavily involved in securing a place where those students who desire technical training while in secondary school when they can become exit the doors of their local high school. Business and community leaders are demanding individuals with these skills and we want them to hire local trained employees.
