Leave No Child ...


     On Friday , February 10,2012, The Time Magazine published an article entitled The Beginning of the End for No Child Left Behind .Teachers, educators and even some parents involved with the public school education system, will painfully admit, that the strict requirements of No Child Left Behind had given them nightmares, taken away their jobs, and left more children behind, than ever before. No Child Left Behind enacted by Pres. George W. Bush in 2002, was a strong effort to get accountability by measuring student performance in the public school system
    According to the Time Magazine ,educators can now breathe easier with the Beginning of the end for No Child Left Behind. The Time magazine states that president Obama has granted a deal to every state to "set higher, more honest standards than the ones set by No Child Left Behind."
This an important article because for the ten years since its existence No Child Left Behind have impacted, the education system and the people involved with it. It had some good points because it tried to provide standards and accountability. Unfortunately some of the standards were unrealistic and impractical especially when it came to financial funding.
