Maryland Application for the NCLB Differentiated
Accountability Pilot
As part of the United States' No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Legislation,
six states were chosen to join the Differentiated Accountability Pilot
Program, a program designed for states to bring all schools up to NCLB
standards by 2014. Maryland was one of those states. The program began
July 1, 2008, as all states were required to begin their program
immediately after being chosen.
In Maryland's plan, all Title I schools that need improvement are
required to introduce public school choice to all students in the
district. In addition, all children in all Title I schools that need
improvement in year 2 must have access to supplemental education
services.
