No Child Left Behind Overhaul: AAE Responds |
posted by: Cindy Omlin | January 15, 2015, 07:47 PM |
Teachers agree that a one-size-fits-all system isn’t working. We must find a common ground that addresses the unique needs of the states. It's critical to strike an appropriate balance between demanding change and respecting the discretion of states and school districts to tailor policies to their unique needs. While the law has been far from perfect, its focus on accountability and demanding results for students is vital. We must balance the realities of overtesting with a system that properly allocates resources to schools and students in need. As the debate continues, AAE will continue to poll our dedicated member educators on what’s working in their respective states. We’re committed to a member-driven advocacy voice and look forward to sharing findings with federal lawmakers in the weeks ahead.”
