youtu.be The No Child Left Behind Act was meant to compel states to adopt high standards and rapidly improve K-12 education in public schools. It is now clear that NCLB has been a failure and has set the stage for even greater federal control over curriculum. The solution, contrary to what many advocates claim, is to get the federal government out of America's classrooms. Neal McCluskey, associate director of the Cato Institute's Center for Educational Freedom, comments on NCLB's decade of failure. Video produced by Caleb O. Brown and Austin Bragg.

BY ALYSSA CARTEE ANCHOR LAUREN GORES "No Child Left Behind" gets left behind. President Obama announced he's granting 10 states waivers to escape the education reform requirements. The plan was one of President Bush's largest reforms and was widely criticized for being unrealistic and too rigid. When The Today show reported the announcement, the show suggested the states involved had been trying to make this happen for a very long time. "By dropping the Bush era policy, the ten states including Colorado, Florida and New Jersey will get the leeway on student preparation they have been requesting for years." But as CNN reports, the states had to give a little to get a little. "In return, those states have agreed to raise standards for providing student achievement, provide more accountability, and provide essential reforms to teacher effectiveness." A blogger for Fox News writes although Congress couldn't find a better resolution to the problems in the bill, some lawmakers are still not happy. "The executive action will circumvent Congress, which has been stuck on how to rewrite the law. ... Republicans have charged that by granting waivers, Obama was overreaching his authority." While some are criticizing the waivers saying it's a loss of focus on education, Mom-blog 'The Stir' says the flexibility is a good thing. "NCLB was too rigid. I think it's important that we have high standards and continue reaching higher to prepare our students for their future — but we have to <b>...</b>
