• Growth Models: Ensuring Grade-Level Proficiency for All Students by 2014
  LEAD & MANAGE MY SCHOOL In April 2005, Secretary Spellings announced a New Path for the No Child Left Behind Act—a set of common-sense principles and approaches to guide states as they measure their progress in meeting the law's important "bright line" goals. (Note: All students still need to meet grade level standards by 2014 but perhaps the NCLB law by then could be revised to reflect growth for students who are making significant progress but still not meeting grade level standards.)

• Is It Good for the Kids? Too Much on the Numbers...Not Enough on the Children
  Article by Gene Carter, Executive Director ASCD. Concern is rising in the ASCD community that the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) law is overemphasizing testing, leading schools to focus too much on the numbers and not enough on the needs of the children. Several recent reports raise concerns about flaws in the NCLB data collection requirements that could not only penalize diverse schools but also cause inaccurate measures of student and school progress.
