RE: ] Fw; AWAKe;Schools on military bases are exempt from the No Child Left Behind law

[Guest guest]

I admit right up front I

actually know little about the “no child left behind” law, but two

close friends are teachers and they both say it is an impossible dream because

children do not learn in the same way at the same time in the same amount….we

can’t “create identical IQ’s for each kid” they say. They

said it wouldn’t be long before all of the schools in the nation would be

not meeting the requirement, and thus, taken over by the federal government

(which is the threat supposedly).

] Fw; AWAKe;Schools on military bases are exempt from the

No Child Left Behind law

Interesting. So

because we are military and many of our kids go to school on military

installations then it's ok for our kids to be " left behind " , because

the schools get the federal funding? Hmmmm well now, that raises yet another

question.....what about the schools our(military) kids attend off post and

because they do the schools qualify for extra funding thru the federal

government?

Does that mean

those schools are also exempt for the NCLB law?

Your'e right Maralee. I have a friend I have knownfor 12yrs and she has been teaching all but 3 of those years. We have had many discussions about NCLB and your'e right--it is basically in unattainable goal. No 2 kids learn at the same rate or the same way.

IMO, it is a Republican answer to “dealing

with education” and their solution to the fight over vouchers for private

schools. If the schools are found incompetent, the district will have to

provide vouchers for students to go to private schools, tutoring (Sylvan, etc.)

and more. I’m a Dem, can’t you tell?

LOLOL Nothing wrong with being a Dem, lolol.

I have yet to see the voucher system at work here. The kids that were in failing schools last year had the option of being moved to a thriving school. Other than that I haven't talked to anyone who was able to attain a coucher of help with out of school tutoring.

Not yet, but if you read the whole law,

you’ll see it is coming. Schools are given a period of time to correct

their actions and districts can certainly allow students to attend other

schools (if there is space) if their school is failing. After a few years of

failing, though, the vouchers will come.
