States are lining up to drop out of No Child Left Behind

HOORAY! I hope California leaves it behind right away!  In my opinion, this was a bad program from the start.  Everything is geared toward the testing, which has dulled the educational system.  It has taken the fun out of teaching for the teachers, and out of learning for the kids..and given them test anxiety, to boot.  To tell you the truth, I can't think of anything good to have come out of the Cheney/Bush years.  Those evil men propelled us toward economical and ecological disaster in the fastest way possible, and we are paying for it today.
