Message from the Chief Administrator: Update on the Status of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act Reauthorization

Many of you are aware that that Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA-sometimes referred to as No Child Left Behind) is finally moving through Congress and appears to be on a path for reauthorization by the end of the year.

I encourage you to read this update from Noelle Ellerson (AASA/AESA) and to contact members of the Iowa delegation to urge passage of the bill yet this year. While the final bill language is still unknown and there will likely be elements that are less favorable than we would like, it is a significant improvement over the current federal law.

Paula Vincent
Heartland AEA Chief Administrator
