Time To End No Child Left Behind

Clearly this federal education legislation is flawed and failed. It places full blame on educational inequities on schools and absolves parents and employers of parents of any responsibility or part in the success of education of children. It lays forth a program that is an unlevel playing field and fails to take into account demographics, poverty, infrastructure, and information technology availability. A new improved law needs to be enacted to supercede No Child Left Behind that would involve tax incentives and penalties, but given my choice, I would prefer education be managed and legislated on the state and local level with only limited federal oversight and involvement.
