NCLB "works" because students are being taught the tests, and due to the extortion that is federal funding the schools are shifting and fuzzing the various criteria that says what meets the federal criteria.

Escambia county Florida has had thousands of students fail their esit LEAPS, funny phrase that, and they are simply shit out of luck. The didn't pass the structured test they were being taught, and they'll suffer in life because they weren't being taught the necessary skills instead.
