>
>As predicted in last Thursday's update, the education
>appropriations bill was passed---in the House on
>Friday (352-65) and in the Senate on Saturday (91-4).
>The vote preserves the Eisenhower Professional
>Development program along with many other Department
>of Education activities as the targeted programs they
>were designed to be.
>
>The Eisenhower program in FY 1998 will receive $335
>million, up from $310 million last year. (The first
>$250 million is earmarked for science and math
>teachers.)
>
>Title I was funded at $8 billion (up from $7.8 billion
>last year); Educational Technology at $584 million (up
>from $305 million); IDEA at $4.8 billion (up from $4
>billion); Charter Schools at $80 million (up from $51
>million); and Goals 2000 at $465 million (down from
>$476 million). Voluntary national tests in reading and
>math (for now at least) were not funded.
>
>So... CONGRATULATIONS!! to EVERYONE who spoke out to
>their senators and representatives by letter, phone,
>FAX, and e-mail. YOU were definitely heard!
>
>And CONGRATULATIONS to everyone who forwarded these
>updates to others, so that they, in turn, could speak
>out and be heard.
>
>Without the outcry from teachers across the country
>against the block grant proposal and for professional
>development and other targeted programs, the outcome
>might have been different.
>
>We salute you! Thank you VERY MUCH for all your
>efforts!
>
