Tool of the devil or evil incarnate?

YOU DECIDE!

NCLB doesn't come with funding attached. Nice of Congress to do that, no? Federal funds are allocated to the individual schools through the local system, not the state, so WI state funds have no bearing on Federal funds.

NCLB is SUPPOSED to be funding this crap, it just has been renegging on the promise. It's been pissing Ted Kennedy off something fierce, but hey, that's what you get for sleeping with the enemy.

And -- you're being a little disingenuous here. The federal government does offer some assistance to state education funding. It's not a lot, but it's there.

In the case of special ed, the federal gov. is supposed to fund 100%. In our state, they fund 20% but still expect us to hold up to 100% of the law with only 20% of the funds.

Yeah -- and then they CLAIM with fanfare and ticker tape parades that they've been funding special ed at 100%. So annoying.
