State school boards associations jump into hurricane reliefState school boards associations in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama have established hurricane relief efforts in their states. Read all about them here. NSBA's NewsStand continues to collect articles on hurricane issues related to schools. A couple of examples: A school in Alabama is aiding the effort to re-establish schools in Pass Christian, Miss. Three of that city's four schools, educating 2,000 students, were obliterated by Hurricane Katrina. And affects of the 2004 hurricanes together with a hot housing market in Florida are combining to increase the costs of building new schools there.
Also: Students are writing about their hurricane experiences and reactions. They need blogs! We recommend contacting her, him, or him. A very smart bunch who teach and use blogging in the classroom and out. "Out" meaning in such astonishing places as the principal's office. (And this book sounds like a must read when it comes out next year.)
