More of Dumbya's wishful thinking:
(my favorite of these is "schools must close the gaps between rich and poor by 2014"...)

Provisions of No Child Left Behind Act

The Associated Press
April 17 —

Some of the highlights of the No Child Left Behind Act:

Annual state tests in reading and mathematics for every child in grades three through eight, beginning in the 2005-06 school year. Schools must also test students in science in three grades.

A public school in which scores fail to improve over six years can be restaffed.

All students must be proficient in reading and math by 2014.

Schools must close gaps in test scores between wealthy and poor students and white and minority students.

School districts must allow and even help students at struggling schools transfer within the district. If a school fails state standards in three out of four years, districts must pay for supplemental tutoring.
