Abstract

The article focuses on the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) of the United States. On January 8, 2002, President George W. Bush signed the No Child Left Behind Act into law. NCLB brought sweeping changes to the 37-year-old Elementary and Secondary Education Act and thrust the nation's educators, schools, and school districts into a new world of federal educational leadership. The U.S. Senate supported the new law 87-10, and the House of Representatives endorsed it 381-41, Republicans supported the law 44-3 in the Senate and 183-33 in the House. Democrats were equally enthusiastic, backing the law 43-6 in the Senate and 198-6 in the House. Representative John Boehner, a Republican from Ohio and the chairman of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce, termed the law his proudest achievement in his years on Capitol Hill. During 2004 presidential election, Democratic Presidential nominee John Kerry attacked NCLB as an empty promise. He said that resources-without-reform was a waste of money, and reform-without-resources was a waste of time.
