School officials to compare school methods
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (AP) - The
nation's chief state school officials gave the go-
ahead yesterday for the creation of new ways to
compare how states are educating their children.
Their plan will create a system built around a
common test or joint bank of test questions that all
states could give to pupils in several grades.
THE PLAN was approved overwhelmingly by a
voice vote. Among the handful of "nays" were the
superintendents from Alabama, Arkansas, and
Wyoming.
Vermont's school chief, Stephen Kaagan, who
chaired a panel that drew up the blueprint for
future state comparisons, said, "We are closer
together on this issue this year.''
The plan drafted by Kaagan's committee would
create by 1989 a series of "educational indicators"
to provide comparative information in three
general areas:
" School outcomes, such as how many pupils
graduate from high school or get equivalency
diplomas, state test scores, and percentage of
graduates going to college, joining the military or
getting jobs;
" "Contextual factors" such as size, percentage
of students who are poor, limited in speaking
English or handicapped, how many attended pre-
school, parents' educational levels, and per-pupil
assessed valuation.
* Policies and practices, such as teacher
salaries, per-pupil expenditures, length of school
day and year, extent of advanced placement cour-
ses, rate of vandalism, and proportion of schools
with parents' organizations.
The federal government publishes statistics on
state graduation rates, teachers' pay, per-pupil
spending, and other measures. Most of the infor-
mation is drawn from the chiefs' own state depar-
tments of education.
But Kaplan said states vary widely on how they
gather data and they do not always agree on
definitions.
STATES ALSO differ on attendance data.
Kaagan noted that California claims its average
daily attendance rate is 98 percent, but California
counts as present anyone with a valid excused
absence.
The chiefs' program would rank the states on a
scale of 1 to 99, with a mean score of 50. Each state
would be scored on its educational outcomes,
policies and practices, and contextual factors.
The report suggested that states use questions
from a common test bank, possibly as part of the
existing, federally financed National Assessment
of Educational Progress which Florida, Ten-
nessee, Virginia, Wyoming and New York already
take part in.

Hurricane nears Fla., gov. declares emergency
MIAMI (AP) - People flocked out
of the vulnerable Florida Keys
yesterday and Gov. Bob Graham
declared a state of emergency in
South Florida as Hurricane Kate
churned across tiny Bahamian islan-
ds.
Boaters gathering to escape winter
in the North were told to head for safe
inland harbors, and residents of
mobile homes and beachfront con-
dominiums were urged to find more-
secure shelter.
"CERTAINLY we ought to be
worried," said Neil Frank, director of
the National Hurricane Center. "This
isn't the big awesome kind of storm
we see in September, but it's a very
respectable hurricane."
At 5 p.m. EST, Kate's highest
sustained winds of 100 mph were cen-
tered near latitude 22.0 north and
longitude 76.0 west, in the
southeastern Bahamas and about 375
miles southeast of Miami, in what
local weather veterans call
."Hurricane Alley." The eye was
being carried west at 15 to 20 mph.
Five to 10 inches of rain was expec-
ted along its path, and tides 4 to 7 feet
above normal were predicted for the
area where it makes landfall, the ad-
visory said.
BY LATE afternoon, Kate appeared
to be edging northward and hurricane
warnings were posted for all of
southern Florida, from Jupiter Inlet,
north of Palm Beach, southward
through the Keys to the Dry Tortugas
and northward along the Gulf Coast to
Fort Myers, Frank said.
The Bahamas also issued hurricane
warnings.
Graham declared the state of
emergency for Palm Beach,
Broward, Dade, Lee, Collier, and
Monroe counties.
THE FIRST mandatory
Peace petition Associated Press
The Rev. Jesse Jackson and Jane Gruenebaum, left, hold a box with a
million U.S. signatures at the Soviet mission in Geneva yesterday. The
signatures, calling for a ban on nuclear testing, will be given to leaders of
both superpowers.
evacuations were in Dade County,
where Miami-area disaster officials
ordered residents of mobile homes
and trailers to move into motels or
friends' homes.
Graham earlier closed all state
parks in the Keys, sent state em-4
ployees home early at 3 p.m., and
urged residents to "evacuate im-
mediately."
The lone causeway connecting Key
Biscayne with Miami was jammed by
early evening.
The hurricane forced postponement
of today's Key West mayoral election,
with the voting to be rescheduled.
