My view on the No Child Left Behind Act

Image result for no child left behindNo Child Left Behind Act is not as effective as it is portrayed to be.  What makes it so ineffective to some and who believes it is ineffective?  There is a reason why the Act was passed and why it has been in place for so long.  Ever since Betsy DeVos was appointed to be the Secretary of Education, she has made it quite clear that she does not believe the Act is effective.   Her mission is to prove to the others that this Act isn’t in place to help each child individually but in place to help the children as a group. DeVos is trying to prove that charter schools have better programs to offer without actually considering what public schools have to offer. The No Child Left Behind Act has grants that are for these programs in the public education system that Betsy DeVos seems to be ignoring. Here, I am going to go into great detail and explain why the No Child Left Behind Act is effective for the public education system. I’m going to write about the Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos and the American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten.
