Of special interest are records regarding the Boston Education Alliance, which provide documentation of the meetings and activities of the group of citizens concerned with education reform prior to the formation of Citywide Educational Coalition (Box 3); and Citywide Coalition's meeting minutes prior to incorporation, which document its early planning strategies, and the ways in which to involve the community in the process of selecting a new Superintendent (Box 4). Also of special interest Citywide Parents Council, the Racial / Ethnic Parents Council, the Community District Council, and the Citywide Coordinating Council records, which document their relationship with the Coalition (Boxes 3-6, FF6/D9); and Education Renewal, Inc., which provided the start up funds for the Coalition (Box 6). Records documenting the training all staff received for desegregation intervention work, including harassment reports, telephone logs from the Rumor Control Center, and busing incident reports are also present (Box 5).
Of interest is the Coordinator's Handbook, which explains Chapters 636 and 766 and Title 1, and provides information about the court appointed parents councils, including their by-laws (Box 7); the Education and Training Cooperative records, which describe the role of the Racial / Ethnic Councils (Box 4); and the anti-busing literature, which was collected by Coalition staff members who attended the meetings held by the group Restore Our Alienated Rights (Box 3 and 26). Also of interest are the reports entitled Desegregating the Boston Public Schools: A Crisis in Civic Responsibility, The Impact of Three Community Organizations on School Desegregation in Boston, 1975-1976, and Reflections on School Desegregation: Boston's Community Leader's Speak Out (Boxes 6 and 7), which analyze desegregation from different perspectives. The VHS recording of the Coalition's 25th anniversary fundraising event entitled "CWEC Forum" includes a panel discussion of the history of desegregation in the Boston Public Schools. Panelists include Mayor Thomas Menino, Superintendent of Schools Thomas Payzant, and Ellen Guiney. Parents United, the newsletter from the Citywide Parents' Advisory Council and the Intouch newsletter published by the Citywide Parents Council provide background on the work of the court appointed councils (FF6/ D9 and Box 25). |
