Week 11: Reading 3

Interesting article -- I find it incredibly short-sighted to punish schools for the intellectual performance of the children, especially when the punishment is to decrease funding. Unless all schools were at the same baseline at the onset of this educational initiative, it appears that this logic bolsters the success of previously well-established and well-performing schools.

As well, if no child is left behind -- why should children academically ready to move forward be held back (educational opportunities) because of another child? All hail the status quo. How can we expect children trained to jump through educational hoops to become full-fledged, collaborative members of our society?
