STOP COMMON CORE IN OREGON BY TIM MCMENAMIN STATE REPRESENTATIVE

Oregon schools chief Rob Saxton said he won't consider delaying the Smarter Balanced tests because that would lower expectations, deny parents and schools accurate information about how prepared students are for college and career and leave Oregon lagging behind other states.

Former Representative Jane Lokan originally secured funding to create Sabin-Schellenberg Tech. Center

Talked with Former Rep. Jane Lokan (R-HD41) she originally secured funding to create the Sabin-Schellenberg Tech. Education Center in North Clackamas School District. Sabin is a great example of an efficient delivery model for career and technical education. College isn't the right path for every kid, it wasn't in my family, that is why Rep. Lokan sponsored Bills for millions in new grants specifically targeted at career and technical ed. programs all across the state. That is why I am proud to have the Endorsement of former Representative Jane Lokan.

The Future of School Choice in Oregon Education Savings Accounts

Nobel Prize winning economist Milton Friedman first popularized the school choice voucher concept in his 1962 book, Capitalism and Freedom. Now, a new concept is capturing the imaginations of a new generation of parents and policy makers: Education Savings Accounts (ESAs). Going beyond the voucher or tax credit idea for school choice, ESAs introduce market concepts that help parents become active shoppers for educational services, thus improving their quality while reducing costs.

More Money, Same Problems for Oregon Schools

Instead of investing too little, Oregon schools have failed to invest their scarce resources in the right places, namely students and teachers. A major part of the problem lies in the hiring of an ever-increasing number of administrators and non-teaching support staff who are soaking up highly valuable but limited funding. A report released by the Friedman Foundation for Educational Choice shows that Oregon had a 47.3 percent increase in the number of administrators and non-teaching support staff from 1992 to 2009. This astounding growth more than triples that of students and teachers, which only grew by 15.4 percent and 12.7 percent respectively. Oregon schools now employ more administrators and non-teaching support staff than they do teachers.
