Summary
"Education Reform in the American States is an evaluation of the accountability movement in American public education, culminating in the No Child Left Behind Act federal legislation of 2002. The authors treat the current accountability movement, placing it in historical context and addressing the evolution in public-education policymaking from the overwhelming emphasis on state and local discretion to increasing federal oversight and mandates related to federal funding."--Jacket
