As co-chair of the National Governors’ Association (NGA) Education Task Force, Governor Clinton led negotiations at the Charlottesville Summit in 1989. At this summit, both the Bush Administration and the governors reached a historic agreement that established National Education Goals. Shortly after, Governor Clinton led an outreach effort to build consensus around the National Education Goals. President Bush announced these goals and the nation’s governors adopted the goals in February 1990. In July 1990, Governor Clinton led the fight to establish the National Education Goals Panel and also co-chaired the NGA’s Education Task Force. The Panel annually reported on the progress of National Education Goals. The Task Force recommended strategies for states to reach these goals. Governor Clinton’s 1991 education bill incorporated NGA recommendations on National Education Goals for the state of Arkansas. In spring of 1994, President Clinton signed the Goals 2000: Educate America Act. Goals 2000 was based on Governor Clinton’s educational reforms in Arkansas, Secretary of Education Riley’s gubernatorial efforts in South Carolina, and lessons from other state and local educational reforms. The Goals 2000 legislation codified the previously mentioned National Education Goals. Goals 2000 offered grants to states that committed themselves to specific plans for systematic reform of K-12 education. Goals 2000 included testing of reading and mathematics skills to ensure such students met these standards. In parallel with Goals 2000, President Clinton proposed the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). President Clinton signed the Improving America’s Schools Act (IASA) in October 1994. This Act reauthorized the ESEA and also modified Title I of the ESEA. In addition to providing funding for teacher training, IASA also provided for testing on the state level and raised the standards for the schools educating these students. IASA also provided educational opportunities for disadvantaged students. Public opinion in 1996 indicated that educational standards were still too low. In his State of the Union address in 1997, President Clinton stated that “every state should adopt high national standards.” However, Congress blocked the implementation of these national standards. The WHORM Alpha Project file contains correspondence from organizations regarding reauthorization of ESEA. Many of the responsive documents in the WHORM Subject File are correspondence.

Records that are responsive to this FOIA request were found in these collection areas—Clinton Presidential Records: White House Office of Records Management (WHORM) Alpha Project, Clinton Presidential Records: WHORM Subject Files, Clinton Presidential Records: WHORM (OP), and Clinton Presidential Records: White House Staff and Office Files. The White House Office of Records Management (WHORM) contains a variety of series created to organize and track documents and correspondence. The WHORM Alpha file was compiled by the White House Office of Records Management from 1993 – 1996 and is a series of documents arranged by name of persons, organizations, or events. The WHORM Subject file was compiled by the White House Office of Records Management and is a series of categories designated by a letter/number combination. In addition, there are WHORM (OP) and WHORM (Alpha Project) series. Staff and Office files were maintained at the folder level by staff members within their individual offices and document all levels of administration activity. WHORM files are processed at the document level; whereas, Staff and Office files are processed at the folder level, that is, individual documents are not selected and removed from a folder for processing. While this method maintains folder integrity, it frequently results in the incidental processing of documents that are not wholly responsive to the subject area. FOIA 2009-0886-F included WHORM records from these subject codes: ED Education ED003 Teachers – Teaching Methods, Educational Programs FA Federal Aid FG001-06 Appointments –Interviews, Meetings with, Presidential FG001-07 Appointments Granted, Presidential FG001-08 Presidential Telephone Calls FG002-41 Bush, George Herbert Walker – January 20, 1989 – January 20, 1993 FG006-01 White House Office FG026 Department of Education FG065 Independent Agencies, Boards and Commissions FI001-02 Disbursements – Expenditures – Deficit Spending FI004 Budget – Appropriations IV095 Invitations 1995 ME Messages ME002 Messages (Sent to Groups / Organizations) ME002-03 Governmental Groups (Foreign and Domestic) PL005-02 Democratic Party PR010 Motion Pictures – Film Strips – Recordings SO004 Receptions, White House SP293-11 Goals 2000: Educate America Act SP400 Radio Addresses SP661 Signing Goals 2000 Legislation, San Diego, California, 3/31/1994.
