Education Week Gregory M. Chronister Journalism Fellowship

Editorial Projects in Education Inc. (EPE) is pleased to present the Education Week Gregory M. Chronister Journalism Fellowship , to be awarded annually to an enterprising journalist in support of a reporting project that illuminates a significant issue in pre-K-12 education.

The fellowship is meant to honor and reflect the now-retired Gregory M. Chronister, who helped lead Education Week as executive editor for 11 years, and as managing editor, associate editor, and Commentary editor for 21 years before that. Greg was known for his commitment to producing balanced, thorough, high-quality reporting that could improve American education, and for his keen eye on journalistic detail and big-picture context.

The kindness and humanity that Greg showed his colleagues in the workplace have deeply informed Education Week’s journalism, which combines independent, incisive coverage with a belief in the critical importance of a civil discourse around highly contested issues of pre-K-12 policy and practice.

Thank you for your interest in the Education Week Gregory M. Chronister Journalism Fellowship program. Please check back later for more information .

WATERFORD – The Wolf Creek Local Board of Education approved a proposed Waterford High School bathroom renovation project valued at $852,796 during Monday’s meeting.

Doug Saxton, business development representative for construction firm Veregy, said the proposed renovations had three main objectives.

“It’s about student privacy, student safety and appearance,” he said.

Saxton showed digital simulations of the new bathroom and conference room spaces on a monitor. He also compared the building’s current floor plan to the new design.

The proposal was approved later in the meeting on a 3-2 vote, without further discussion. Board members Greg Adams and Scott Lang were opposed.

The board voted to proceed with a bus compound renovation with engineering firm Energy Optimizers valued at $148,910. According to the agenda, $59,807 will be covered by a safety grant and the district’s Permanent Improvement Fund will pay for the remaining $89,103.

The board voted to go into executive session at 7:45 p.m. “for the purpose of an investigation of a substitute teacher,” according to the agenda. Board President Hugh Arnold said no action would be taken. Additional information was not provided.

Safe Routes to School program nixing 7 pilot crossing guard locations due to low usage

photo by: Austin Hornbostel/Journal-World

A crossing guard helps students and their families safely cross the street at the intersection of 19th and Vermont streets outside Cordley Elementary School following the first day of the new school year Thursday, Aug. 17, 2023.

Starting Dec. 2, students making their way to school shouldn’t expect to see a crossing guard stationed at seven crossings added as pilot locations for the first half of the school year.

The City of Lawrence announced late last week that the seven pilot crossing guard locations the city implemented this fall did not meet the criteria warranting a permanent guard on duty. Those routes include:

• Iowa Street and Clinton Parkway

• Iowa and 27th streets

• Sixth Street and Folks Road

• Sixth Street and Stoneridge Drive

• 23rd and Louisiana streets

• Ninth Street and Emery Road

• Sixth and Michigan streets

According to the city, the criteria for placing a permanent crossing guard at an intersection controlled by a traffic signal is a minimum of 30 children per day using the crossing. The highest number of children crossing daily at any location was four, and that was at just one crossing. At three other locations, one child crossed daily, and the other three pilot locations didn’t have any children crossing daily.

“As part of our commitment to safety, the city piloted adult crossing guards at key locations aligned with the 2023-2024 USD 497 adopted elementary school boundaries,” the city’s release reads. “These temporary placements were strategically selected, considering the potential for increased street crossings for K-5 students due to boundary changes.”

Four of the seven pilot locations were part of a group of eight crossing guard jobs that were still vacant when the school year began in mid-August, as the Journal-World reported . By about two weeks later, nearly all of the vacancies had been filled.

The Safe Routes to School initiative is a collaboration between the city, the Lawrence-Douglas County Metropolitan Planning Organization, Lawrence-Douglas County Public Health and the Lawrence school district.
