Is No Child Left Behind?

According to our President and the number of "failing" schools in America, children are being left behind.  In light of my recent blog post about NCLB, I thought an article in today's New York Times education section was appropriate.  The article talks about President Obama's hopes for a NCLB overhaul, which I believe is much needed.  I hope this plan would include reevaluating the way in which we evaluate public schools as failing, and changing the policies regarding budgets/federal money for failing schools. Hopefully our Congressmen and women feel the same way, and can put into place a more effective plan, so that we can educate the workers of tomorrow.
