WATTING FOR MOM; We may put in approximately recommendations highlight of conference have shown that Studies achievement by 1020 percent in middle level schools that implemented eight recommendations issued in 1989 by the Carnegie Council on Adolescent Development Middle level educators and administrators have the opportunity to learn more about these eight recommendations, and how they can implement them in their schools, at the Rocky Mountain Middle Level Education Symposium at Utah State University, June 30 through July 3, said Cami McClure, USU Conference Program Specialist The symposium, now in its fourth year, will focus on helping middle level schools better meet the needs of young adolescents by implementing the Carnegie recommendations, McClure said. More than 500 middle level teachers and 100 schools have participated in the symposium during the past three years. Since the Carnegie Council issued its report, research sponsored by a variety of state and private agencies indicates a significant transformation is The symposium, now in itsfourth year, willfocus on helping middle fact schools better meet the needs of young adolescents by implementing the Carnegie recommendations -- Caml USU conference program occurring in middle level schools where those recommendations have been taken to heart, said Martin Tadlock, a USU professor who is acting as chairman of the symposium. Where all eight recommendations are in place, several things seem to happen, Tadlock said. Large schools create a school within a school where students dont get lost as easily in the system. A teaming structure is provided where a closer working relationship can exist between teachers. In addition, teachers are provided common planning time where they assemble to formulate ways to better meet the needs of students they share, Tadlock said. Also teachers are available to meet with parents in team conferences. Teachers correlate curriculum and share teaching ideas to improve their instruction, and as a result, student achievement climbs. The eight recommendations McClure, specialist made by Carnegie Council are: 1. Divide large schools into smaller communities. 2. Provide aU students access to a common core of high-levknowledge and skills. 3. Organize instruction to ensure success for all students. 4. Empower teachers and administrators to make key decisions at the school level. 5. Prepare teachers specifically to teach young adolescents. 6. Improve academic achievement through better fitness and health. 7. families in the education of young adolescents. 8. Connect schools with communities.

Each group contained schools with similar demographics so that student populations were comparable. Results of the research showed that students attending schools where the Carnegie Council recommendations were implemented at a high level outscored their counterparts in low level implementation schools by more than 10 percent in reading, 20 percent in language, and almost 20 percent in mathematics on state standardized core tests, Tadlock said. Students in high implementation schools also reported significantly less worry, and less fear, higher exhibited less behavior problems than their counterparts. This longitudinal study will continue to follow those schools over the next several years and will also track students as they enter high school and college to see if differences continue to occur, he said.
