No Child Left Behind

The federal government's No Child Left Behind Act was signed into law on January 8, 2002. As North Carolina school board members and administrators work to meet the requirements of this sweeping legislation, NCSBA will post relevant links to resources, articles and websites about NCLB.

Useful websites:

• North Carolina Department of Public Instruction
• U.S. Department of Education NCLB site for parents
• U.S. Department of Education NCLB site for policy makers and educators
• National School Boards Association

Useful resources:

• NCLB statute
• Title I Final Regulations and Impact Aid Programs Final Regulations (see updated regulations)
• Answers to Local Board Members’ Questions (from NCDPI)
• NCLB Legal Requirements (presented by Bill McGrady, DPI Compensatory Education Section Chief, at the 2003 NCCOSA Summer Law Conference) 
• The Rural School and Community Trust is a national nonprofit advocacy group that provides information on the impact of No Child Left Behind on rural schools.
• ELNC has a chapter full of NCLB links, including regulations, guidance, and other official documents; ELNC Chapter B.15, "No Child Left Behind Act:  Web Resources," contains many useful links to regulations, guidance and other official documents.
