Is there some reason our state canand our local district not do something FIRST? And do it the BEST? Ill bet no other state has a higher percentage of parents willing to help educators implement new programs and provide feedback. We may make mistakes and new programs may not be 100 but percent the first few years these are times to try new things. I do not like career ladders, but its at least forward movement! I and hooray to those love OBE few who try it locally. Hooray for d schools and uncrowded classrooms. We do not need to content ourselves with status quo for 10 more years. What is your district doing? What is your school doing? Use next fall for a learning and a time to see what time you want to try. going on Dear Readers, Before I leave the subject of outcome-base- d education, let me add just a few more notes for parental awareness. Perhaps some thoughts here can help you plan meetings next fall. There are some districts in this state that are highly progressive and innovative; Granite is great. Granite and Provo are already d schools and trying many rural Utah schools are having tremendous success with OBE. Some would say its because they have more money but on a basis, thats not necessarily true; the funds are prioritized differently. There are other districts in this state that, unless! suggestions come from the state', are basically This is a major concern to all parents because if j year-roun- where. In chatting with an individual in one district about an innovative, new program, I chuckled when one of the first questions was, Is there a model of this somewhere? I said, No, and the next comment was that in that case, the program must not be workable. This maintain sta- - per-stude- nt ts 1 tus quo attitude is very domi- the educators, who watch whats around the nation, do not bring new programs to our schools, parents never know what might have been. I am constantly amazed as I watch schools nationwide (and even in other Utah districts) experimenting with new programs to see if they can improve education for their kids. In contrast, some Utah districts wait until the programs are working somewhere else for years then they study it. By the time they do it, its old stuff and even better programs are being tried else- BONNIE SMITH Special to the Lakeside Review from area schools. school Eva The students were chosen from Bill Spangenthal, 15, named all the students of the month se- - Gutierrez, 5, were lected by the Elks during the dents of the year. r Park year-roun- Annual Scholarship Awarded CLEARFIELD -j- David Cramer has been named the winner of the annual Bausch and Lomb Jensen, who presented the award to Cramer, because it recognizes the senior student at CHS who has attained the highest scholastic standing in science subjects.

She said, all the children were excited, and that each one made the collection of cans a family and neighborhood project. The children were learning to count money. Mrs. Barber said each time the cans were sold, the students counted the amount, kept in a special container for the birds. The students presented the money to Richard Hunt, director DARLENE MIX Special to the Lakeside Review LAYTON Second grade students at E.G. King, and Whites- ides Elementary schools, had a specific goal in mind for choosing Laytons city park as the destination for their field trip. stuE.G. King second-grad- e dents had been saving aluminum cans since early winter. Their plan was to earn money from recycling the cans to buy feed for the birds, ducks, and swans residing at the park. ,;r : 'W 'A'. . .:'VsS i y T y 4. && VWw )x of parks and recreation, and to James Woodward, in charge of grounds. Woodward explained the history and feeding of the birds to the children. He told them approximately 60 birds live at the park, some of which were purchased by employees. It costs $1,200 a year to feed them, he said. Second-grad- e students at Whitesides Elementary School studied trees and plants. The class planted seeds and made terrariums. The students also learned to recycle items usually thrown away. Encouraged by second-grad- e teacher Lorna Prusse, the children began to collect money by having a bake sale and collecting aluminium cans to be recycled. Through the sale of the aluminium cans and with the help of Woodward, Mrs. Prusse said she was able to purchase five trees. The children recently took their field trip to the park. Woodward explained the differ- ent types of trees, sizes and which trees are climbing trees. He told them there are 80,000 trees and shrubs in the park.
