Emerging Issue
>Is it possible to make budget cuts and still provide a safety net
for students?
Will the stimulus offset the damage?
We have received a range of responses to the policy notes we sent out
last week about:
Balancing Cut-backs at Schools is Essential to Ensuring Equity of Opportunity
http://smhp.psych.ucla.edu/pdfdocs/cut-backs.pdf
Some indicated it was timely and useful to share with those making
decisions about reductions in programs and personnel (e.g., Planning
to share it at a forum for dropout prevention). For others, the
current situation is just so dire that they think there is no
possibility for developing equity of opportunity in many schools.
(e.g., There was not enough money before the economic downturn, and
now resources are reduced while problems for families escalate. Time
for mutiny!! The fiscal crisis schools are facing is well beyond a
balancing act. All things are going to have to be cut and students
are going to suffer. There is no alternative to that conclusion.)
Still others think this is a matter that needs to be reflected in the
multiple documents, coalitions, and conferences focusing on
innovation in education that intend to provide guidance for setting
priorities (i.e. the Broader, Bolder Approach to Education; 21st
century skills). And, still others see the concern for balance as a
matter of great relevance with respect to the eventual
reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act.
What strategies are being used in your locale to at least maintain
enough student and learning supports to continue to reduce truancy
and dropouts, close the achievement gap, reduce inappropriate
referrals for special assistance and special education, and counter
the school to prison pipeline? How will the stimulus package help in
this respect? Let us know so we can share the information with
others. Ltaylor at ucla.edu

**NEWS FROM AROUND THE COUNTRY
ECONOMIC DOWNTURN, NATURE OF BUDGET CUTS, AND USE OF STIMULUS FUNDS
HAVE MAJOR IMPLICATIONS FOR ADDRESSING STUDENT PROBLEMS
>BIG CUTS LOOM FOR EDUCATION: 574,000 JOBS AT RISK
States probably will cut an estimated 18.5% of spending over the next
three years, an $80 billion drop that could eliminate 574,000
publically funded jobs. The projection could actually be worse than
predicted, because it doesnt include dropping local funding, which
was too difficult to track. 2/11/09.
http://www.usatoday.com/news/education/2009-02-10-school-stimulus_N.htm
>STIMULUS INCLUDES $5 BILLION FLEXIBLE FUND FOR EDUCATION INNOVATION
Education Secretary Arne Duncan would have $5 billion under the
stimulus bill to back new approaches to improve schools. The Race to
the Top Fund, as Duncan calls it, is part of about $100 billion the
bill would channel to public schools, universities and early
childhood education programs nationwide, helping stave off teacher
layoffs, keep class sizes in check and jump-start efforts to revamp
aging schools. 2/14/09
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/02/13/AR2009021303346.html
>SCHOOLS TRY TO HELP PARENTS, STUDENTS COPE WITH RECESSION
To support parents trying to help their kids cope, school districts
are stepping in. One sponsored a parent seminar that featured an
expert in student stress. Another hosted an open house for parents to
meet with financial advisers and mental health experts. The idea was
sparked by social workers and counselors who noticed that many
students were grappling with a laid-off parent and having to cut back
on expensive extracurricular activities. 2/11/09
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chi-school-stress_sw_zone_11_feb11,0,5966447.story
>SCHOOLS FACE SHARP RISE IN HOMELESS STUDENTS
The economic plunge has generated a growing wave of children
nationwide who are sleeping in shelters, motels, spare bedrooms or
even the family van as their parents seek to keep them in school.
Educators are scrambling to help, with extra tutoring, clothes, food
and cab fare. The children are often scared, stressed or embarrassed.
School, often the first safety net for struggling families, are
emerging as a key anchor for homeless youth. 2/8/09

OTHER NEWS
>DISCIPLINE CODE UNDER REVIEW AS SUSPENSIONS LOSE IMPACT
Washington DC Schools Chancellor proposed to revise the Districts
student behavior code. The changes would move away from out-of-school
suspensions as the disciplinary method of choice and toward
counseling, peer influence and more options for keeping suspended
students in school. Out of school suspensions put students behind in
their work and increase the likelihood that they will become truant
or drop out. This revision comes against a backdrop of increased
concern about violence and mayhem in schools. 1/25/09.

>MAYORAL CONTROL OF SCHOOLS NOT A CURE-ALL, REPORT SAYS
Mayors have taken control of school systems in recent years in some
of the nations largest cities New York, Chicago, Boston and
Washington among them and in some cases, the results have been
heralded as a shot in the arm, in terms of both finances and
education. But the track record on mayoral takeovers or any form of
running schools other than an elected School Board remains
complicated and mixed according to several research efforts,
including the new one by the Public Policy Forum, a Milwaukee policy
research organization. 2/15/09 Journal Sentinel

>JUDGES PLEAD GUILTY IN SCHEME TO JAIL YOUTHS FOR PROFIT
Two judges appeared in federal court in Scranton, PA, to plead guilty
to wire fraud and income tax fraud for taking more than $2.6 million
in kickbacks to send teenagers to two privately run youth detention
centers. A senior judge appointed by the State Supreme Court will
determine what should be done with the estimated 5,000 juveniles who
have been sentenced by these judges since the scheme started in
2003. Many of them were first-time offenders and some remain in
detention. It raised concerns about whether juveniles should be
required to have counsel either before or during their appearances in
court and whether juvenile courts should be open to the public or
child advocates. 2/13/09.

>IS TECHNOLOGY PRODUCING A DECLINE IN CRITICAL THINKING AND ANALYSIS?
As technology has played a bigger role in our lives, our skills in
critical thinking and analysis have declined, while our visual skills
have improved, according to a UCLA researcher. Reading for pleasure,
which has declined among young people in recent decades, enhances
thinking and engages the imagination in a way that visual media such
as video games and television do not.

Some kids are living in communities that have such a pre-determinant
affect on their health and well-being that it sets them on a negative
trajectory for the rest of their lives. It cant be stressed enough
that the current economic downturn is only going to widen the gaps in
health disparities. Things are going to get much worse.

**THIS MONTHS FOCUS FOR SCHOOLS TO ADDRESS BARRIERS TO LEARNING
> March - Reducing Stress: Preventing Burnout
In the course of a regular school year, this is a time of mounting
stress. With the economic downturn stress is exacerbated.
Draconian school budget cuts, real and rumored, effect everyone. Some
districts are initiating mid-year reductions in force; many are
sending warning notes (pink slips) to a wide range of staff to let
them know that their employment for the next year is uncertain. Add
to that annual accountability achievement testing. (One district
website homepage features a countdown of days until the annual
achievement tests and provides strategies on how students can
prepare.) Moreover, for some students, lack of success in the first
semester has discouraged them from starting the new semester with the
motivation to succeed. So, along with all the other stressors, staff
must worry about what can be done for students who arent ready to
move on, but who shouldnt be held back. And there is so much more
with which to cope.
The following resources are meant as aids as school leaders address
stress of staff, students, and familes.
>Start with the online clearinghouse Quick Find topic Burnout Prevention
http://smhp.psych.ucla.edu/qf/burnout.htm
>Visit the American Psychological Associations The Road to
Resilience - http://www.apahelpcenter.org/
Included in their 10 ways to build resilience are:
>>Avoid seeing crises as insurmountable problems...you can change
how you interpret and respond to these events
>>Accept that change is a part of living...accepting circumstances
that cannot be changed can help you focus on circumstances that you can alter
>>Take decisive actions. Act on adverse situations as much as you can.
>>Look for opportunities for self-discovery...Many people who have
experienced tragedies and hardship have reported better
relationships, greater sense of strength even while feeling
vulnerable, greater sense of self worth...
>>Nurture a positive view of yourself. Developing confidence in your
ability to solve problems and trusting your instincts helps build resilience.
>>Keep things in perspective. Even when facing very painful events,
try to consider the stressful situation in a broader context and keep
a long-term perspective.
>>Make connections. ... Accepting help and support from those who
care about you and will listen to you strengthens
resilience...Assisting others in their time of need also can benefit the helper
>Also, see our online clearinghouse Quick Find topic: Resilience
http://smhp.psych.ucla.edu/qf/resilience.html
Clearly, it is essential to do as much as possible to minimize the
impact of stress on students, staff, and families. If you have ideas
about what to do, let us know so we can share them widely. Ltaylor at ucla.edu
Note: It is important to anticipate major concerns that arise with
regularity over the course of the school year. These provide natural
opportunities to strengthen support for learning. For a calendar of

**COMMENTS, REQUESTS, INFO, QUESTIONS FROM THE FIELD
>I wanted to let you know of a project that I am currently involved
with that I think can be of great help to school aged children in
helping them to understand and express emotional. Emotes are a series
of characters designed to help kids increase their emotional
vocabulary through interactive play. The colorful characters, from
Abash (the embarrassed) to Boom (the angry), each represent a
different emotion. Written by a licensed psychotherapist, the Emotes
picture books explore a range of emotional and developmental
challenges including temper tantrums, bullying, fears, and healthy
habits. Vinyl figurines and plush play therapy toys also allow
children to externalize and interact with their feelings. In
addition, an Emotions Display Case allows children to select and
highlight the emotion with which they currently identify--fostering
emotional expression and dialogue. Interactive games, short videos
and lesson plans for educators can also be found online at

THIS IS THE END OF THIS ISSUE OF E-NEWS
See below for source identifying information
Who Are We? Under the auspices of the School Mental Health Project in
the Department of Psychology at UCLA, the national Center for Mental
Health in Schools was established in 1995. The Project and Center are
co-directed by Howard Adelman and Linda Taylor. The UCLA Center is
one of two national centers first funded in October,1995, by the
Office of Adolescent Health, Maternal and Child Health Bureau(Title
V, Social Security Act), Health Resources and Services
Administration, U.S. Dept. of Health & Human Services (Project
#U45MC00175). In open competition, both Centers were refunded in 2000
for a second 5 year cycle with the Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration's Center for Mental Health Services joining
HRSA as a co-funder. In 2005 after open competition, both Centers
were funded for a third five year cycle. (In this cycle, SAMHSA
joined HRSA as a co-funder only for the first year.) As sister
Centers, the Center at UCLA and the one at the University of Maryland
focus on advancing efforts to enhance how schools address mental
health and psychosocial concerns. A description and evaluation of the
Center's work and impact is available at http://smhp.psych.ucla.edu
