Under
No Child Left Behind (NCLB), the latest
reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act that first
started under President Johnson in 1965, schools are being held accountable
to meeting Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) for all students. The links on
this page, Parent Choice, Supplemental
Services (free tutoring), and Accountability
contain links to sites that explain in further detail the specifics of this
legislation and parents' options and rights to know about the quality of
education at your school. A new site www.schoolresults.org,
jointly sponsored by the US Department of Education and the School Information
Partnership, is a good on-line resource for parents where you can learn
more about how NCLB impacts your children's schools. Just click on Kansas
and enter the name of your child's school -- a window will come up that
gives the status of your school concerning the requirements of NCLB.
