Forum on Educational Accountability

March 2007

The current version of the federal Elementary and Secondary
Education Act (ESEA), called "No Child Left Behind"

(FEA) has submitted legislative language based on the Joint Organizational
Statement on NCLB to the U.S. House and Senate Education Committees
that would remake the law into an effective tool for school improvement.
