Reformation of the federal No Child Left Behind Act of 2001

Published by Joseph Semmel on Nov 01, 2009

PROPOSED RESOLUTION

While the problems which face our educational system are complex and multifaceted, we propose that NCLB be reviewed, discussed and reformed to reflect a greater concern for nurturing the well being of the student, more realistic goals be set for AYP compliance (since no human system can sustain 100% conformity) and that the issue of accountability through funding be redressed to reflect a more balanced approach of fiduciary responsibility.

Accountability for the student, the teacher and the school should not be solely based on state academic assessment scores given on one day of the year and should take into account the greater achievements of the child, the objective evaluation of qualified teachers in the classroom and give consideration to the greater school environment as a whole.
