NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND:
A CLOSER LOOK
Learning Matters produced three special reports for The NewsHour
with Jim Lehrer, focusing on the federal law known as No Child
Left Behind.
THE PROGRAMS
• No Child Left Behind "Race"
How schools take advantage of the little-known and rarely discussed
"loopholes" that are buried in the fine print of the law.
• End of the Line
Two schools in San Diego took advantage of the law to turn their
schools around.
• Teachers Take on NCLB
Some of the best teachers in the country are saying that NCLB makes
their jobs both more difficult and less rewarding.
