California's Public Education Case Study
The initiative measure I chose was prop 51, which entails investing the the state of California's public education by investing “$9 billion dollars on general obligation bonds”. This investment would benefit K-12 by putting forth $3 billion towards modernizing and improving current school facilities which some are in dire need of upgrading and expanding due to the vast amount of growing population we have in California. Also $3 billion will be invested in new construction that is needed for new housing areas to avoid over crowding in current California schools. $2 billion will go towards our community college which will aid in improving the education and provide a more efficient education to these students.

    Proposition 51 Pros And Cons

    Prop 51,gives more money to charter schools but Californians already pay $2 billion each year on state school bonds therefore, If this proposition is passed this could cost an additional $500 million each year, money the state can’t afford. What truly matters is the attendance rate, if more students are present then schools get more money without having to increase taxes. People should vote no on Proposition 51 for one reason and that is taxes because California is already in debt and paying back taxes is a major issue.The annual budget is more than the schools combined, these schools are required to pay back or they may lose the education for students such as books,desks, chairs, and most of all, facilities, and schools have to do funds and…

    Blue Canyon Day School Case Study

    As a result of these practices some schools became synonymous with death and disease. When a smallpox epidemic struck Blue Canyon Day School located in the Navajo Nation, agency officials feared the death of children, knowing that if a child died at the school, the Navahos would immediately declare the building shinkie, or devil haunted, and remove their children. A shortsighted and expedient policy of filling schools beyond their intended capacity or overworking the children in manual work programs cost hundreds of students their lives as epidemics swept through dozens of schools (DeJong, 2007).…

    Brown Vs. Education Case Study

    Moreover, as the case was addressed in many different areas within this essay the information that was gathered later introduced the procedural posture in the event of this case. The procedural posture of this case was clarifying the rights people, or minorities other than Caucasian in the South have, and how this case was decided. For instance, all African American children can finally go to a school in which they are treated equally, and receive the best education necessary in developing their futures. Before the Brown vs Education was decided many schools were segregated, and one race did not receive the best education as the other. Furthermore, if you would look at this case today it formally expresses strategies that can be used on other issues which many minorities face in today’s society. Lastly, as the essay evolved the ruling was described showing that the courts correctly decided the case, and even with the appeal of the plaintiff the courts were constitutional in their final decision. The Constitutional ruling in the final decision was a revolving case that made history even in today.…

    Public Education In Texas

    The origins of public education in Texas can be traced to the pre-Republic times when Texas was a part of Mexico. During this time, Texans wanted the Mexican government to establish a system of public education in Texas, but the government did not meet their requests. As a result, the writers of Texas’ Declaration of Independence listed the Mexican government’s refusal to set up a system of public education as one of the grievances against Mexico. Because of this, the Constitution of the Republic of Texas included a provision that called for a system of public education in Texas; however, no system was established during the years when Texas was an independent nation, as Texas passed a bill in 1854, after it joined the Union in 1845, that…
