About 'the university of the arts tuition'|Equality Part Five of a Manifesto for the Arts and Humanities








To               me,               like               thousands               of               other               parents,               the               No               Child               Left               Behind               Law               meant               improvements               to               our               educational               system               so               every               child,               whether               struggling               or               advanced,               would               have               the               opportunity               to               open               their               minds               and               thrive.

But               how               many               of               us               have               taken               the               time               to               read               about               this               law?

If               we               did               perhaps               we               would               challenge               the               wording...

The               General               Idea
               The               "No               Child               Left               Behind"               Act               (NCLB)               was               signed               into               law               on               January               8,               2002.

It's               sole               purpose               is               to               increase               math               and               reading               skills               in               schools               across               America               ranging               from               kindergarten               to               the               high               school               years.

The               law               created               an               accountability               system               where               schools               have               to               meet               adequate               yearly               progress               goals               to               allow               every               student               to               reach               proficiency               levels               in               both               math               and               reading.

Assessments               of               progress               may               vary               from               state               to               state               yet               are               a               necessity               to               ensure               the               receipt               of               federal               money               to               aid               in               the               school's               enrichment.
               The               law               states               also               every               teacher               must               obtain               at               least               a               bachelor's               degree,               fulfill               state               certification               and               licensing,               and               demonstrate               expertise               in               the               subject               matter               in               which               they               instruct               if               that               school               is               to               receive               federal               funding.
               Another               requirement               to               receive               these               monies               is               to               use               scientifically-based               research               strategies               for               classroom               instruction               and               professional               development               of               the               staff.

But               if               a               particular               school               is               not               interested               in               receiving               federal               funds               they               need               not               adhere               to               these               guidelines.
               The               NCLB               act               is,               in               a               sense,               attempting               to               minimize               educational               gaps               by               creating               common               expectations               for               all               students.

It               requires               schools               to               give               focus               to               those               traditionally               "under-served"               groups               such               as               low-income               students,               African               Americans,               Latinos               and               those               students               with               a               disability,               etc.

And               according               to               the               Department               of               Education,               since               the               law's               inception,               achievement               gaps               in               reading               and               math               skills               between               racial               groups               are               at               an               all-time               low.
               The               Parental               Issues
               Fundamentally,               the               NCLB               act               is               a               monumental               step               in               the               right               direction.

I               mean               consider               the               idea               that               every               child               will               obtain               the               necessary               skills               to               become               a               productive               adult!

For               far               too               long               too               many               children               have               "slipped               through               the               cracks"               or               "skated               by"               in               school               only               to               leave               educational               institutions               unable               to               read               beyond               a               sixth               grade               level               -               sometimes               even               lower.

And               simple               math               skills,               such               as               adding               up               purchases               or               making               change               require               the               use               of               a               calculator.
               The               reality               is               in               today's               fast-paced               world               it               is               nearly               impossible               to               get               a               decent               job               that               will               support               a               family               with               such               poor               remedial               skills,and               obtaining               that               college               degree,               another               necessity               in               today's               world,               remains               for               many,               is               just               a               pipe               dream.

But               if               every               child               were               to               acquire               the               necessary               fundamental               skills               perhaps               the               vicious               cycle               of               poverty               and               illiteracy               would               be               stopped               in               its               tracks.
               But               is               the               NCLB               law               truly               doing               what               its               name               suggests               -               leaving               no               child               left               behind?
               Are               our               children               benefitting               from               these               standardized               testings,               or               is               the               focus               in               the               classroom               solely               based               on               a               limited               number               of               skills               just               to               increase               the               number               of               successful               test               results?
               Is               it               fair               that,               in               all               likelihood,               yearly               progress               goals               are               set               at               a               minimal               level               so               these               goals               are               met,               therefore               ensuring               "bonus"               funding               for               success               -               or               that               perhaps               schools               are               failing               to               meet               adequate               progress               to               ensure               additional               resources               and               funds?
               Recent               surveys               have               found               that               more               than               70%               of               schools               have               increased               instructional               time               for               reading               writing               and               math               (the               primary               focus               of               the               law)               but               have               been               forced               to               decrease               such               subjects               as               social               studies,               arts,               foreign               languages               and               even               physical               education.

Funding               allocations               are               provided               only               for               teaching               "core"               subjects               (reading               and               math),               therefore               forcing               any               programs               not               necessary               to               providing               the               "essential               skills"               to               be               limited               or               cut               altogether               from               the               curriculum.

So               are               we               losing               the               benefits               of               a               broad               education?
               And               this               law               says               "no               child               left               behind."..so               are               we               sacrificing               our               gifted               children               for               the               sake               of               those               who               may               need               a               little               extra               work               with               remedial               skills?
               Sure,               there               are               alternatives               to               a               public               school               education,               but               many               parents               of               gifted               children               cannot               afford               the               lofty               tuition               payments               of               a               private               school.

Why               should               they               be               expected               to               fork               out               thousands               of               dollars               every               year               just               because               their               child               is               beyond               the               remedial               focus               of               the               public               school?
               Is               There               an               Answer?


               There               is               no               "one-size-fits-all"               solution.

Some               children               will               continue               to               struggle               no               matter               how               proficient               the               instructional               materials,               just               as               some               will               thrive               no               matter               how               poor               the               quality               of               teaching.

And               just               performing               "test               drills"               in               order               to               rank               a               school               as               proficient               does               not               broaden               the               mind.
               As               a               parent               the               best               thing               you               can               do               is               get               involved.

No               one               knows               your               child               better               than               you.

Of               course               considering               the               advice               from               a               qualified               educator               is               always               recommended,               but               you,               the               parent               ultimately               have               the               last               say               when               it               comes               to               your               child's               education.
               If               your               current               public               school               is               failing               to               address               your               child's               needs               seek               alternatives.

Many               parents               do               not               know               that               if               a               school               fails               to               meet               their               adequate               yearly               progress               goals               for               two               years               or               more               that               school               must               offer               children               to               transfer               to               a               higher-performing               local               school,               or               receive               things               like               free               tutoring               or               attendance               in               after-school               programs.

Some               colleges               even               offer               programs,               free               or               for               a               nominal               fee,               for               your               child               to               attend               college-level               courses               for               college               credits               which               can               replace               that               particular               subject               in               middle               school               or               high               school.

There               are               also               free               or               low-cost               educational               camps,               such               as               the               University               of               Minnesota's               free               high-tech               camp               for               disadvantaged               kids.

But               keep               in               mind               although               most               summer               camps               can               be               costly,               many               of               these               extracurricular               educational               camps               provide               need-based               scholarships               so               a               family's               financial               situation               will               not               prohibit               any               student               from               accessing               the               opportunity               to               challenge               one's               mind.
               Our               educational               system               is               not               without               flaws               but               the               No               Child               Left               Behind               law               is               a               good               step               forward.

But               keep               in               mind               its               purpose               is               to               lower               illiteracy               rates               and               to               assure               every               child               has               the               opportunity               to               step               out               into               the               real               world               with               the               remedial               skills               expected.

It               is               foolish               of               us               as               parents               to               assume               that               any               one               school               can               provide               the               individual               needs               of               every               student               as               its               title               suggests.

If               you               feel               your               child               is               not               receiving               the               skills               he               or               she               needs,               step               up               and               take               action.

And               the               first               step               is               to               know               the               contents               of               the               NCLB               law.

The               law               forces               schools               to               be               held               accountable               but               whether               or               not               it               stands               up               to               expected               levels               is               something               schools               do               not               typically               make               public               knowledge.

So               ask               questions               and               arm               yourself               with               the               most               powerful               tool               we               as               parents               have               to               assure               our               children               are               getting               the               education               they               need               -               knowledge!
