ECS Reauthorization Database

Stumbled across this a couple of days ago and I just wanted to pass along the link. I am getting a lot of questions from school personnel lately regarding the reauthorization and what different groups are saying ... and, the Education Commission of the States and their top notch policy analyst Mary Fulton have put together a database on just that issue. So here are the links:

No Child Left Behind Reauthorization Database


And from the ECS Press Release:
According to the ECS synthesis and analysis of 15 key education policy stakeholders across 16 issues, the greatest collective agreement emerged in the following areas:

  • Allow growth models for calculating Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)
  • Provide more flexibility for students with disabilities and English Language Learners (ELL)
  • Provide adequate funding to support NCLB requirements
  • Build state and local capacity to assist low-performing schools
  • Offer high-quality professional development
  • Target assistance and interventions to the highest-need schools and students

And, finally, ECS has a Reauthorization Survey that you can take or direct your friends to take.
