Post: Is Reading First and NCLB Dead in the water??
Posted by: Just Wondering on 7/24/09
I heard an interview with Arne Duncan, the new Sec. of Ed.,
saying that he will soon drop NCLB the way it is and start
a new initiative where education is more controlled by
National standards across all 50 states and that there will
be less micromanaging of teachers in the classroom. He
says that as long as teachers are showing good progress
with their students, and testing results are good, they
will have much more creative freedom in their classrooms.
Yay for Arne Duncan!! I hope this pans out in favor of
GOOD teachers for a change. Your thoughts on this, anyone?
