The signature education plan is pledged to improve the performance of students, teachers and schools with yearly tests and serious penalties for failure. Although many Republicans and Democrats are confident the system will work in the long run, Bush is being criticized in swing states such as West Virginia for not adequately funding programs to help administrators and teachers meet the new, and critics say unreasonable, standards.

This one has the potential to be a large deal in Jersey. But it's genuinely hard to say how it will break. My little community is going through a fairly public debate about it right now because of the schools hit the list and there's widespread sense it's a problem of the measures for the standards. But it's very early here.
