One of the Legal & Ethical discussion among NEA focus on Education funding. Education funding has increased for CTE, PSLF, SRF, & Title I, IDEA. Title II was trying to be removed by legislative secretary but was denied by Congress. Solutions are still being sought for DACA recipients. ]]> 2018-08-23 23:18:24 UTC https://padlet.com/fsannicolas/ya49yztxqn7e/wish/275021756 AMERICAN SCHOOL COUNSELOR ASSOCIATION fsannicolas https://padlet.com/fsannicolas/ya49yztxqn7e/wish/275022609 www.schoolcounselor.org
ASCA seeks Congress to enact a policy that provides safety in schools to protect students. A framework for Safe and Successful Schools is developed to ensure just that. 

These are effective school safety efforts:
"Begin with proactive principal leadership.
 • Allow school leaders to deploy human and financial 
resources in a manner that best meets the needs of their 
school and community.
 • Provide a team-based framework to facilitate effective 
coordination of services and interventions.
 • Balance the needs for physical and psychological safety. • Employ the necessary and appropriately trained school- 
employed mental health and safety personnel.
 • Provide relevant and ongoing professional development for 
all staff.
 • Integrate a continuum of mental health supports within a 
multitiered system of supports.
 • Engage families and community providers as meaningful 
partners.
 • Remain grounded in the mission and purpose of schools: 
teaching and learning. "

In order to get teachers paid federally on Guam get specific resources to use in the classroom, and continue with all school operations, funding is needed for all. ]]> 2018-08-23 23:29:18 UTC https://padlet.com/fsannicolas/ya49yztxqn7e/wish/275022971 EDUCATIONAL FUNDING fsannicolas https://padlet.com/fsannicolas/ya49yztxqn7e/wish/275023972 WEB SEARCH SOURCE #2:

(2018, February 12). Education funding targeting vulnerable students rather than whole districts deserves discussion. Grand Rapids Business Journal. p. 12.]]> 2018-08-23 23:40:22 UTC https://padlet.com/fsannicolas/ya49yztxqn7e/wish/275023999 Overview of 2 Sources fsannicolas https://padlet.com/fsannicolas/ya49yztxqn7e/wish/275024253 The US Department of Education discusses 10 facts of funding Education for K-12 schools (US Dept, 2014.) States are solely responsible for the education funding of schools, United states tax paying investment estimates at 536 billion dollars, States and localities are the primary funding source for their schools, Educational funding has increased, especially since higher enrollment started, IDEA and ESEA received a bigger budget for these special programs since 2001, most federal funds are sent directly to schools for use, and Schools are federally funded through laws ("10 Facts about", 2014)

It is important to know how the US funds their schools in order to see how funding can impact the learning and environment of all students. Without funding, school operations lessen and achievement can decrease. In an editorial article found online, some states are given the one budget fits all rather than money dispersed where it is needed ("Education funding", 2018). Since funding is important for schools to succeed, the state of Michigan reports low achievement in their schools. Educational stakeholders have stressed the need to fund schools or students in need ("Educational funding", 2018)

Overall, federal funds seem to be legitimized in funding schools since there are laws on how the money is distributed. However, since schools are mostly funded by their local government. It is up to the governor of that state to decide how much money is appropriated for schools and whether or not it is a priority. Elected leaders and their platform play a big role in educational funding which affects the performance and well-being of students, faculty and staff in all schools. ]]> 2018-08-23 23:43:11 UTC https://padlet.com/fsannicolas/ya49yztxqn7e/wish/275024253
