Re: [LM_NET] NY Times article on NCLB

[Susan Ferkin <ferkinss@K12TN.NET>]

This article appeared in today's NY Times:
Report Faults Bush Initiative on Education at 
http://www.nytimes.com/2005/02/24/education/24child.html?th.

The article discusses a report completed by a bipartisan group that found the 
legislation "flawed, convoluted and unconstitutional education reform initiative 
that had usurped state and local control of public schools." (NYT 2/24/05).
Are any of you aware of challenges in your state in regards to the federal 
legislation?
