Wrightslaw: No Child Left Behind [With CD-ROM]

The No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) is more than just standardized testing. In this book, the Wrightslaw team leads a clear path through NCLB, explaining important aspects such as requirements for qualified staff, the ability for children to transfer from dangerous schools, and more. Although I started out skeptical of NCLB (and still have issues with standardized testing), reading this book showed me the positive sides of the act and how it can be a powerful tool for parents.

If you have to wonder if a book written by Peter and Pamela Wright is of value then you have never read one of their books or been to one of their conferences. This is a must have along with their other two books for any parent, teacher or administrator interested in the role of special education.
