Title I: Improving the Academic
Achievement of the Disadvantaged
The
No Child Left Behind Act [NCLB]
of 2001 reauthorized the Elementary
and Secondary Education Act [ESEA]
of 1965, which was the
ground-breaking federal education
legislation as part of the war on
poverty. The NCLB continued the
ESEA provisions but expanded to
include increased accountability for
States, school districts, and
schools; greater choice for parents
and students, particularly those
attending low-performing schools;
more flexibility for States and
local educational agencies (LEAs) in
the use of federal education
dollars; and a stronger emphasis on
reading, especially for our youngest
children.
