    POPS    No Child Left Behind Law Examined

     NCLB needs to be completely re-tooled/scrapped. This law is taking resources away from accelerated programs. It's the top 20% that will be doing 80% of the innovating. Sometimes, there are neglected kids that need an extra hand. This should be on a case by case basis, not country wide. There is something to be said for motivation. If a child is driven to do well in school, to improve their situation, they will perform at a higher level anyway. Anyway, I am rambling. The law had 'good' intention, but it had horrible implementation from the first day of drafting.

     a dull boy. Yet another example of government thinking they know best by instituting requirements. Any good parent knows that kids need time to unwind...just like the 'big' kids.

     This law needs major reform. Children are now being taught how to pass the standardized test rather than learn the joys of learning. Additionally, money is being funneled away from accelerated programs to fund the students on the other end of the spectrum. How is this law going to keep the US as the 'world leader'?
