Anyone who has had any experience at all with big city public schools knows that NCLB is a charade. Money is the equalizer. You put your money where your mouth is, put libraries in the schools. Staff them. Acquire books. Bring computers in. Hire science teachers. Art teachers. Provide money for special assistance. Etc. Etc.
The withdrawal of federal funds over the last couple of decades has led to an outsized increase in local taxes and a rapid decline in quality, particularly in cities that rely on property taxes for district funding.
All else is just rhetoric.
