No Child Left Behind

I would like to take this opportunity to talk about our future children. On February, 9th, 2012, USA Today published an article that President Obama will be giving 10 states a education wavier. That is a wonderful idea. The reason I say this is because it will give educators lead way and room to educate everyone. Most people will like to think that all children will have to learn the same but realistically they do not. So, when the children didn't meet the requirements in being proficient in reading and math they were considered as "Failure".  This idea will help those who are struggling, not only just the minority or the low-income. I feel this will give the teachers more hope, and flexibility it help those in need of extra educational assistance in school. This wavier may seem like we are spending federal dollars on the wrong thing, but it will benefit in the future for our children and our government. The schools that are scoring low will have to step it up, but then the children may actually see that we care about their future, and may feel the need to do better. I am happy to see this, and hope we all can see the difference it will make for all of us.
