 Minnesota
Evaluation Report: No Child Left Behind
In January 2002,
President Bush signed into law the No Child Left Behind (NCLB)
Act. There was considerable discussion during the 2003 legislative
session about the laws potential cost implications, and the
resulting evaluation addressed questions such as: What costs will
NCLB impose on the state and school districts, and what factors
are likely to affect the magnitude of those costs? Will the
increase in federal revenues that Minnesota receives under NCLB
cover the new costs imposed by the act? What would be the fiscal
implications if Minnesota "opted out" of NCLB? To what
extent do Minnesota education officials support the goals and
approaches of NCLB?
