This handbook was written for readers aware of and concerned about the sex bias in public schools in the areas of athletic budgets, sex stereotyping in children's books, differential expectations in classroom behavior, counseling attitudes and practices, school personnel assignments, and the impact of defining stereotyped roles to boys and girls in the public schools. The first of seven sections reviews the structure and functions of school personnel, including homework guides for becoming familiar with your schools. Section two explains budget and financial matters in the schools and section three outlines general strategies for effective action. Sections four, five, and six list specific school practices and policies with proposals for change. The last section contains resources with reprints and listings of materials and other sources of help. The materials are based on the experience of a board member in a small suburban school district in Minnesota. (Author/KSM)
