NCLB help!!!!

[Jedoyon@AOL.COM]

Does anyone have a good enough handle on NCLB to confirm, refute, or expound 
on these statements?  I have a teacher on my list who is trying to write a 
column including the idea that we could scrap WASL and use better means to 
fulfill NCLB.

from the Spokesman-Review:
"Current state testing forms the baseline by 
which improvement must be measured." 

from the teacher:
"I was under the impression that we were not required by the federal mandate 
to 
continue using the WASL; i.e., other tests could be used to show the required 

improvement."  


Thanks,
Juanita
