I don't have any children so I am not quite sure what the no child left behind is where can find info on that.

"While we rape your coffers of their funds, we demand you work harder using less to cover more children"

Yeah, the "No Child Left Behind" act is really heading toward success.

Stupid.

Bumper sticker says it best:
"No Child Left Behind is more like No School Left Standing."

no child should be left behind is a great program and manys ways to get more ways started for more help for the helpless.

Hard to believe in this man's education platform when he spent his university years on cocaine.

Ron Paul '08 – The only candidate determined to eliminate NCLB!!

Even my boyfriend's 12 year understands that No Child Left Behind is a joke! Just yesterday he complained about not being taught, only trained to answer test questions.

If a 12 year can get it, then why can't the President?

Some kind of joke? Yup shrub is a real tragedy to America, can't wait to leave him behind!
Let him limp away to whimpville where is is destined to be painted the colors of the WORST president EVER!

Too little too late, Bush!

(Canadian) NAFTA-gate: Olbermann slams Hillary for lying
It was the Clintons campaign that contacted the Canadian government, but Obama's camp.

Actually...its not the standards that are so much the problem as the Bush administration's failure to fund it. Schools are more than happy to comply with the new standards if they actually had the resources to do so.

Looks like our congress...as usual...is focusing it's attention on minutia while defering key legislation until November.

They may go down in history as the least productive congress in our history. Glad to see the President isn't allowing them to make him a "lame duck" (even if he is a little lame).

Hey Mr. Bush if you're not gonna increase the wages of teachers or increase the federal funding already allotted to Title I schools then save the paper that you are writing this flawed legislation down on. Because some poor kid surely needs it. Especially, since it is the poor that your legislation leaves behind just like your economic/energy policy. One has to be a republican to prosper under republican leadership and this is not "American" at all.

WE DON'T KNOW OF ANYONE THAT THOUGHT THIS WOULD WORK.

THIS IS A SCAM PROGRAM. IT LEAVES ALL CHILDREN BEHIND

JUST A PROGRAM FOR SOME FAT CATS TO GET FATTER.

No Child Left Behind Act was and is the biggest mistake in education. I am a Teacher and I have first hand knowledge of this flaw.

ANOTHER BUSH SHAM. HOW MUCH $ DID HIS MAKE ON IT?

Here's a suggestion:

Rid us of the Department of Education.

Nice idea, poorly run. Too many politicians involved.

Go away Bushy too late what's about oil price? Americans don't need it.

A revision of a failed program that will continue to fail much like the war effort

The best way to change No Child Left Behind is to completely abolish it and start over witht he new administration!

Get the bloody federal governement out of education – leave it to the people at the state & local levels. Everytime the fed butts in they make things worse.

Tye change that should be made in " No Child Left Beehind" is to do away with the program altogether. It is just another one of the Bush fiasco's that didn't work...

Our education system stinks in our country... we are teaching kids how to take tests now instead of teaching them how to learn and keep the information.

For all the money we put in our system, we rank in the middle worldwide in education....

How about we do what other countries do and teach kids young multiple languages and structure, instead of teaching them that they can sue school districts for the most stupid things imaginable...

As a high school educator who has lived through the nightmare of NCLB I can confidently say that the only way to fix it is to get rid of it. For those who are not in education, trust when I say that NCLB is one of the worst educational policies ever implemented. All we have done is train kids how to fill in little bubbles. If you don't believe me, check out our high drop out rates, lack of qualified teachers, or just talk to our college professors who state that kids today are not ready for college.

Regardless of what he is trying to do, there is no way that any action will be taken on NCLB in an election year. The President's attempts to "strengthen" NCLB are a joke- we now you are only doing it to save face and help McCain. President Bush, just stop trying to save your legacy, it is unsavable. You blew it, get over it and move on.

i hope it's something really for eduacting the kids in america... b/c his plan def. leaves kids behind!!!!

George Bush, never misses an Angle...

Will this help Bush's intelligence level?

Good try Bush !!!!!!!!!!!!!

What is trying to do – change his approval rating? Won't happen. Definitely too little to late.

The education department's budget has grown faster under Bush than any other president in history.

And yet, we still hear nothing but complaints and excuses from the very people supposedly educating our children, while they fall further and further behind..

I hope the announcement is to abolish this backwards idea. The truth is ALOT of children have been left behind.

Florida for Obama!

The kids in my neighborhood, the worst school district in the county, are now going to the great schools over on the white side of town.

They really need a hand up from society, not a hand out..., THANKS BUSH!!

I have yet to meet a teacher that thought this program worked.

The only consensus on NCLB of which I am aware is to do away with it. NCLB inititives do not work. The focus is flawed.

TO ALL HILLARY'S SUPPORTERS

MEET US IN N.C AND INDIANA

IT'S OVER BABAE

OBAMA 08

Spellings is another puppet from Texas.She is a loser and a liar.

I wouldn't answer CNN's calls either, as this liberal group wants to kill off anything that begins in the Bush administration without regard to its impact on our children. All nasty politics, not American.

Mr. President, you're too late. The public school system has been sorely damaged due to your pathetic attempt to better educate our children.

My daughter is a teacher and is totally disgusted with this program. Hillary Clinton will fix it permanently by throwing it out with the other trash you have created for America.

Go Hillary

Sorry we are all out formimg a national SEARCH PARTY to try and find the MILLIONS of Children who were left behind by the last so – called program!

A good program isn't as easy as just finding a cool name that will help you politically.

Bush, too little too late.
