The education of juveniles in detention: Policy considerations and infrastructure development

This article presents a discussion of the state of affairs pertaining to educating juvenile justice-involved youth. It summarizes general observations regarding the schooling of juveniles in pre-trial and post-trial incarceration settings, as well as, juveniles on probation or in community settings. The article selectively presents relevant regulations on educating juveniles and various local realizations of these regulations, and comments on the dearth of relevant empirical studies on the population of court-involved youth, their special educational needs, and best practices that are effective with this population. The article ends by telling one state's story, through a policy analysis framework, about the impetus for action, the identification of challenges, and the strategies initiated to develop an infrastructure to meet the needs.

The Art of Bridge Building: Providing for Gifted Children

If your advocacy efforts are in need of revitalization and direction, this case study is required reading. The state organization that is ready to truly make a difference in the way children are educated can take lessons from the initiatives and accomplishments recorded here. Understanding the dedication and detail necessary, reaping the benefits of this state's learning curve, and borrowing the strategies found to be successful will help your own organization's efforts. The analogy of bridge building makes concrete the less-tangible phases of getting a mandate for gifted education. This case study gives the blueprints for preparing those who will construct the mandate. Phase 1 entails educating all about the legislative process, building relationships and affiliate groups, getting technical help, and setting goals and making commitments. Phase 2 encompasses gaining recognition, keeping up the commitment, and learning how to compromise. Phase 3 follows a victory by publicizing the benefits, saying thanks, and developing the regulations. And Phase 4 looks to the future by maintaining relationships and designing a new vision. There are important lessons and a wealth of ideas in this state's story.
