The No Child Left Behind Act

Hey guys, good Tuesday afternoon.
In the Chicago Tribune awhile back, they were doing a feature on the NCLB act. From what was said, it's a dismal failure. However, I need help finding other sources on this. Please help if you can. Thanks.

You can also find articles about it in the Houston chronicle. Bush took a scam from Texas and made it national and then had his pet made into Education Secy. Rod Paige, in appreciation, called the NEA a terrorist organization.
