What do you think about NCLB?


Recommended Posts

NCLB tests are NOT nationalized.
I have a lot of issues with NCLB, but this is one of my bigger issues. :glare:

I live in Texas, where a large percent of our students are non-English speaking and some of our urban schools have a drop-out rate around 50%.

So Texas sets its own standards. And knows that federal funds are based on whether or not they meet their standards. Yeah, if you were in a contest to see if you could meet your goal, would you set your goal high? or low?

Sorry. But Texas set their goals embarrassingly low. I think the tests are a complete sham.
