Unfunded Mandates

I am still wondering where the changes for No Child Left Behind is at. The NCLB is sort of like a wannabe acne treatment. I am looking forward to some real changes within the NCLB law or better yet . . . the whole thing just dropped.

This NCLB is like a total unfunded mandate. People wonder how does this affect me?

Teachers (and student teachers) have to pay for tests that are mandated by the federal government. There is no rebate for teachers who take this test. this is the defination of an unfunded mandate. The government requires something and there is no method on how to pay for it.

Have a most happy day.
