A Little Bit Of Backup

Policy Guy has some problems with NCLB (who doesn't?) but seems to agree with the basic point in my National Review article that taking the edges off of NCLB hasn't necessarily helped improve things for schoolchildren: About the SES pilot program that lets districts provide their own tutoring, he says: "If this pilot program is expanded, much of the value of NCLB will have been wiped out. It will have turned into just another story in the story of putting more money into the sane old system."
