Parent University is Thursday October 13, 1993 THE NEWS-JOURNAL Raeford, N.C. School Briefs By Kristi Posey Hoke County Schools Starting in 1992, we established a parent involvement initiative in our schools known as “Parents as Partners: Effective Families Equal Effective Schools.” Our belief is that if we better involve and inform parents, all of our children will benefit. A major part of this effort is our annual Parent Univer sity. We have held three successful “Uni versity” events since we initiated this program, and on Thursday evening, we will host our fourth series of workshops and activities for parents. Parent University 1993 will take place at West Hoke Middle School on Thurs day, October 14 and is open to all par ents of students in grades Kindergarten through 12. Registration begins at 6:30 p.m. and parents are encouraged to sign in at the registration desks at the front entrance of the school. The school with the highest percentage of parental par ticipation will receive special recogni tion. There will be nine sessions offered and parents may attend two of their choosing. The first session will begin promptly at 7 p.m. At its conclusion, refreshments will be served in the caf eteria. Schools and programs will have displays for the enjoyment of parents during the break. The session will begin at 8 p.m. The program should be over at 8:40 p.m. We will al.so provide child care ac tivities for Kindergarten through fifth grade students. The children will be well supervised and will be engaged in many fun games and other activities. The se.ssions which will be offered this year will expose parents to a variety ofimporiant information which will help them to help their children do their very best. The topics to be presented and di.scussed for this year are: the computer curriculum; the new- ACi model, End-ot- Grade and End-of-Coiirse testing; the new PSAT and SAT; conllicted resolu tion (at home and at school): F.R.O.G. Reading Program; 1st and 2nd grade assessment; student support services; and financial aid for college. Each of the nine sessions will be presented by I hike County Schools’ fac ulty,.staff, or administrative team. These individuals have worked hard to put a quality program together lor our par ents. We hope to see anol her large crowd at this year's Parent University. Alter all, effective families really do make for effective schools.

The departments received vehicles as part of a federal program to make surplus military equipment avail able to state and local law enforcement agencies for use in drug interdiction efforts. The police department received two and the sheriffs' department one vehicle. Dical law enforcement agencies may request a variety of items ranging from boats, generators and radio equipment, to field gear and motor homes that can be converted tocommand centers. Agen cies must complete an application ex plaining how the items will be used to fight drug activities in their area. Equip ment obtained under this program is transferred to the state and local law enforcement agencies in an “as is, where is” condition. The state recently received 177 four- wheel drive vehicles that were then dis tributed to 52 police departments and 29 sheriff’s departments, as well as several state law enforcement agencies. The Department of Crime Control and Public Safety was designated by Governor Hunt as the sponsoring state agency for North Carolina. North Caro lina is one of the 11 southeastern states taking part in the program operated by the U.S. Department of Defense and the U.S. Department of Justice.
