The Passing of Remoteness: A Commentary.
Stephens, E. Robert
Perspectives: A Journal of Research and Opinion about Educational Service Agencies, v9 p39-44 Sep 2003
Five articles about education service agencies (ESAs) serving rural schools yield five insights. Many rural systems owe their existence to ESA support. ESAs provide critical technology support. States should encourage school district collaboration. Inclusion of postsecondary institutional representatives in ESAs is an important step towards a seamless pre-K-16 educational system. Access to comprehensive data facilitates ESAs' mission. (TD)
