National School Board Association primarily advocates for increases to two federal programs that are the largest sources of federal funding to school districts and also operate as mandates:
- Title I grants: The main source of federal funding for the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act
- IDEA grants: Special education funding under the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)
NCLB - NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND
Under President George W. Bush, the Department primarily focused on elementary and secondary education, expanding its reach through the "No Child Left Behind" law.
NCLB supports standards-based education reform, which is based on the belief that setting high standards and establishing measurable goals can improve individual outcomes in education. The Act requires states to develop assessments in basic skills to be given to all students in certain grades, if those states are to receive federal funding for schools. The Act does not assert a national achievement standard; standards are set by each individual state.
I wish best luck to the Indian students to get the benefit of online tutoring soon.
