You know that I'm coming from the left, KMA, but there's not too much inherently wrong about NCLB. I mean, I disagree with much of it, but I disagree with most Democrats about education policy as well. NCLB is mostly pretty standard stuff, and a lot of it has been tried in various states over the years on their own. NCLB's biggest problem has been that Bush passed it so that he can say he cares about education, and then severely underfunded it: the high requirements were then left for schools not receiving the money they needed.
This practice of listing all kids' results together is clearly wrong, and I wish you the best of luck in getting it changed.
