What is this "NO Child Left Behind Crap?"?

South Texas Schools are terrible, passing children up grade levels, when they cant and dont pass the TAKS tests, reading the reading tests to the students who cant read, how is this teaching them? We have 5th graders who can't read on a kinder level. What are we doing to our children?

    "In America, no child should be left behind. Every child should be educated to his or her full potential. This proposal sets forth the Presidents proposed framework to accomplish that goal. This Administration will work with Congress to ensure that this happens quickly, and in a bipartisan manner"

    Yet still- this issue remains unsolved. I completely agree with you- why can't we Americans deal with this- as these are our future generations- we need them, educated and aware of the world around them!

    i have considered some dumb non secular nonsense earlier yet this conception is a ideas previous stupid and top alongside with baby abuse. someone won't be able to be "educated" to do what's unnatural for them. in spite of the truth that in the adventure that your beliefs say Left fingers are incorrect. Get into the twenty first century and get rid of the 3000 365 days old superstitions and nonsense. John Lester of the red Sox is a acceptable social gathering of a left handed human being doing nicely and excelling in his pastime. did not your God provide him which skill?

    Perhaps you should volunteer to help in your local school with reading. The local school board sets the pace for the local schools - show up at a meeting and speak your mind. You can actually remove the board members and replace them if enough people agree with you, and thus change the direction of the local schools.

    Don't just complain - do something!

    you are ex actually harming them not helping them. they later will learn nothing because of the school. no child left behind thing is that no children is suppose to be mean or being lonely and no one is talking to them. but if you Texas is doing that than that is illegal. when they grow up they cant do anything thamseleves. so you better tell the schools before they get shut down.

    yeah thats horrible.

    but its not all the schools fault.

    i think the parents and children are at fault too.

    The school sytsem can't help it if the parents don't help at home or if the children simply don't want to learn. However, i do agree with you on passing students up to the next grade level when they're not ready. they should just hold them back.

    It's just a way to push the children through school so the teachers don't have to work too hard.

    I suggest going to the school board (even though it probably won't help) or to the local media....maybe they can answer it better.

    This horse poop started years ago in California schools. Advancing kids who couldn't pass tests so as not to hurt their "self-esteem". (Funny, I thought that was something you got once you had accomplished something worthy of esteem.) I went head-to-head with my daughter's teacher when she tried to tell me that there was "no wrong spelling, just different spelling". I had my daughter enrolled in a private school before the week was out. I feel for anyone with kids stuck in public schools. They are turning out idiots on purpose - our future slave class, regardless of race or family background.

    It's possible to pay a lot of time and money trying to find ways to teach your children how to learn and enhance their studying skills. Is hard to instruct a small kid how to see, and also alluring them to read is challenging in itself. But it does not have to be like that since you got the help of the program https://tr.im/9v8Oy , Children Learning Reading program.

    With Children Learning Reading you may teach your son or daughter how to split up appears and separate phrases in to phonemes, a vital thing as soon as your kid is just understanding how to spell.

    The reading process from Children Learning Reading program makes it easy for kids to read easily and effectively, from simple words to phrases until they learn to see stories.

    In public schools children are suffereing from grade retention and lack knowledge to move on from elementary to junior high from junior high to high school, kids are failing curriculum that is getting harder and harder, this program enables us to care for one child at a time, help them with their academic needs, we believe this will help them to become successful and that is our goal.
