Best Answer: It depends on the definition that the state has. In Oklahoma, for example, an Independent school district is one that has at least one high school. That means that they can educate, within their district, students from K-12. By contrast, a dependent school district is one that educates K-8, and is dependent on a neighboring independent school district to send their high school age students to. Of course, another state may have a completely different definition. You'll need to provide more info on where you live for a more specific answer.
Wikijunior:Solar System/Venus. Venera 7, the first space probe to land on Venus, was destroyed by the hostile conditions on Venus after only 23 minutes. Almost all of the surface features on Venus are named after women. A day on Venus is equal to 117 days on Earth.
Firstly its axis of rotation is inclined at 177.36 degrees (compared to 23.5 degrees on Earth). This means that Venus rotates in a retrograde direction from east to west, making the Sun rise in the west and set in the east. Further to this the rotation is very slow: a sidereal day on Venus lasts 243 Earth days.This is even longer than a Venusian year which is only 224.7 Earth days. Despite several missions to Venus there is still much that is unknown about our celestial neighbour.urther to this the rotation is very slow: a sidereal day on Venus lasts 243 Earth days.
