NCLB Adminstration Spokesman = C-Span I NOW 7:00 AM Mountain
First thing he said was: Oh, there are a lot of wonderf;ul things in NCLB and most school districts love it. :puke:

You watch and report. I've had my fill of adminstration lies.

1. I can guarantee you that
most administrations don't love it.

I've yet to meet a teacher that doesn't react like a rabid dog to the mention of NCLB. And I meet a lot of them.

I did know an administrator once who thought that we "needed testing" until he was faced with the reality under NCLB; that perception changed almost instantly.

I do know more than one superintendent who has publicly criticized NCLB.

And I do know one school board member, mine, :grr:

who wrote a letter to the editor of my local paper gushing over how our heroic president wanted to "leave no child behind," and how she was here to support him in that effort.

I won't watch. Why start the day with a stomach ache, or in a rage?
