Obama Seeks Broad Changes To ‘No Child Left Behind’

"The Obama administration is proposing a sweeping overhaul of President Bush’s signature education law, No Child Left Behind, and will call for broad changes in how schools are judged to be succeeding or failing, as well as for the elimination of the law’s 2014 deadline for bringing every American child to academic proficiency."

Getting rid of more Bush residue. Just thinking of a lifelong C student effecting our education system gives me chills.

The new proposal has a new accountability system and divides schools into more categories to better address successful programs and improve failing schools.
