Many Children Left Behind

I've been researching the authors of each chapter of the book. All of them are proponents of education, but know that NCLB is not working. It's underfunded, and has way too many standards that can't be reached. A well performing school can be deemed below standard because it can't make unachievable goals.

Our Gem Girls team discussed all of our responsibilities as we finish the book after class last Thursday. Vicki our illustrator and summarizer extraordinaire has wonderful information already available here on the blog. Sheri is already making the connections between MCLB and Brophy. Thank you ladies! I've printed the rubric so we'll be on track.

Thank you as well Sheri for the request of being able to finish up our Teacher Work Sample during Spring Break. Thank you Dr. Zimmerman for allowing us this extra time!
