Описание: Abstract:

The primary purpose of this study was to develop and validate an instrument designed to determine the extent of secondary school racial integration using the School Climate and Integration Questionnaire for Students as the criterion measure. A secondary purpose was to determine the extent of integration in the schools used for validation.

A review of literature was completed and an instrument, entitled the Instrumentation for the Assessment of a School's Strengths and Weaknesses in Integration, was constructed and validated. The instrument provided a means for practitioners to examine the status of a secondary school on various sensitive indicators of integration. The items which were included in the instrument were selected as a result of what experts, familiar with the desegregation-integration continuum, recommended as indices of integrated schools. Content validity of the instrument was established by ratings made by directors of the federal desegregation center for race on each item of the instrument. Sixteen factors and practices were found to be related to school integration, including:
1. The extent to which a school's curriculum dealt with the history, culture, and contributions of minorities to American society.
2. The ethnic composition of a school's staff and student population.
3. The school's disciplinary practices and procedures.
4. The distribution, by ethnic group, of students enrolled in college preparatory or special education classes.
5. The participation of minority students in school extracurricular activities.
6. The student friendship patterns found in the school.

A comparison was made between the instrument developed in the study and the School Climate and Integration Instrument Questionnaire for Students, a criterion measure that had been previously validated. The purpose of this comparison was to determine if similarities existed between the specific integration characteristics measured by each instrument. Seven comparable school integration characteristics were found to be present. The two instrument were then used to determine the extent of integration found in two Florida high schools. The finding were comparable.

Based on the results of this study, it was concluded that the developed instrument, Instrumentation for the Assessment of a School's Strengths and Weaknesses in Integration, can be used by practicing school leaders to measure a school's integration status.

Описание: The creative force behind Blackberry Farm, Tennessee's award-winning farm-to- table resort, reveals how she found herself only after losing everything in this powerful memoir of resilience.

Born with the gift of hospitality, Kreis Beall helped create one of the nation's most renowned resort destinations, Blackberry Farm, in Tennessee's Smoky Mountain foothills. For decades, she was a fixture in the travel and entertaining world and frequently appeared in the pages of popular home and design magazines. But at the pinnacle of her success, Kreis faced a series of challenges that reframed her life, including a brain injury that permanently impaired her hearing and the conclusion of her thirty-six-year marriage to her best friend and business partner, Sandy Beall.

Alone and uncertain as her world shifts and marriage ends, Kreis begins a new journey to find her faith and find God. After spending years on her beautiful exterior life and work, she begins the hardest undertaking of all: reclaiming and redesigning her interior life and soul.

Kreis retreats to Blackberry Farm, moving into an unassuming, 300-square-foot shed with peeling paint on the exterior walls, "where I met myself for the first time." She examines what it takes to redefine life after deep loss and acknowledges, for the first time, often unbearable truths that existed beneath the beauty she had created.

By turns fiercely honest, heartbreaking, and warm, Kreis Beall's story will resonate with anyone who can benefit from her discovery that "All it takes is all you've got. And it is worth it."
