Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
A practical, hands-on primer on helping schools and families work
better together to improve children's education.
Countless studies demonstrate that students with parents actively
involved in their education at home and school are more likely to
earn higher grades and test scores, enroll in higher-level
programs, graduate from high school, and go on to post-secondary
education. "Beyond the Bake Sale" shows how to form these essential
partnerships and how to make them work.
First published by the National Committee for Citizens in Education
in 1986, "Beyond the Bake Sale" went on to sell more than 50,000
copies in nine editions. Packed with tips from principals and
teachers, checklists, and an invaluable resource section, this
updated and substantially expanded edition reveals how to build
strong collaborative relationships and offers practical advice for
improving interactions between parents and teachers, from insuring
that PTA groups are constructive and inclusive to navigating the
complex issues surrounding diversity in the classroom.
Written with candor, clarity, and humor, "Beyond the Bake Sale" is
essential reading for teachers, parents on the front lines in
public schools, and administrators and policy makers at all levels.
Includes answers to these questions:
- What is a family-school partnership supposed to look like?
- How can schools and families build trust instead of blaming each
other?
- How can involving parents help raise students' test scores?
- How can teachers relate to families who don't share their culture
and values?
The book contains reviews and posters of the 31st Congress of the
EUROTOX (Maastricht 1991). - Forensic Toxicology - Drug Toxicology

Beyond Borders: A History of Mexican Migration to the United States
details the origins and evolution of the movement of people from
Mexico into the United States from the first significant flow
across the border at the turn of the twentieth century up to the
present day. * Considers the issues from the perspectives of both
the United States and Mexico * Offers a reasoned assessment of the
factors that drive Mexican immigration, explains why so many of the
policies enacted in Washington have only worsened the problem, and
suggests what policy options might prove more effective * Argues
that the problem of Mexican immigration can only be solved if
Mexico and the United States work together to reduce the
disequilibrium that propels Mexican immigrants to the United States
This is a new release of the original 1935 edition.
