Flea, No Child Left behind is the single worst policy ever implemented for schools. I don't think I have ever talked to a teacher that thinks it is good. It talks about flexibility but infact it rapes the schools. My old middle school was considered failing because of the fact that it couldn't get the growth that was required each year. Why was that? Because it was already at over 96% It also bases all the learning on standardized tests.
No Child Left Behind = worthless
