Re-Authorization Of ESEA
Will 2011 Be the Magic Year?
Last year’s conference had wonderful reviews. Those who attended said they went back to their districts well informed about the status of federal education programs.
We had great presentations from members of the U. S. Department of Education, Dr. Jerry Weast, Montgomery County Schools, and Leigh Manasevit, Brustein and Manasevit.
Our hope is that this year’s conference will be even better and more informative with so many changes in federal programs and the U. S. Department of Education. We hope you will be with us at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington DC in March of 2011!

NAFEPA Position Paper
The Elementary and Secondary Education Act Considerations for Reauthorization based on Implementation of ESEA from the Latest Reauthorization
Since the enactment of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA), states and school districts have systematically worked to meet the goals of ESEA and improve instruction and learning for all students. NAFEPA is fully committed to the intent of ESEA, and for that reason, this paper suggests a series of improvements based on the collective experiences of implementation and outcomes with the latest ESEA reauthorization. NAFEPA members support the premise that every child receives a high quality education that is based on standards and that all groups of students receive assistance to be successful learners.

Message from
NAFEPA
President Rick Carder
 As I reflect back on our 2010 NAFEPA annual conference, it once again reaffirms why being part of NAFEPA is so important to me. Having the ability to meet so many outstanding and dedicated professional educators and develop a nationwide system of support has been wonderful. I strongly encourage all NAFEPA members to continue to stay connected with other members throughout the nation.
I must extend my most sincere appreciation to our NAFEPA vice-president, Debra Baros, for the endless hours she spent in providing us with this outstanding conference. In addition to her fulltime position as assistant superintendent of Cuero Independent School District in Cuero, Texas, Debra began organizing our conference six months ago. Unlimited hours were also provided by Ruby Rodriquez of Cuero ISD, Bobby Burns and Dianne Henderson of Calhoun County Schools, Alabama, and our executive consultant Elizabeth Pinkerton. Without these dedicated individuals our conference would not have met our NAFEPA standards of excellence.
Once again I
would like to thank our NAFEPA partners,
Brustein & Manasevit and Thompson
Publishing. Leigh Manasevit provided a very
insightful presentation on Wednesday, and
Thompson Publishing provided the first 300
conference attendees with the recently
revised edition of The New Title I: The
Changing Landscape of Accountability and a
special printing of the EDGAR resource book.
