#NO WAY ESEA #NO WAY ESEA #NO WAY ESEA
KEEP CALLING (202-224-3121) AND EMAILING YOUR SENATORS AND REPRESENTATIVES!!!
S1177 (the Reauthorization of ESEA...the old No Child Left Behind Act) is a combination of Republican Congressman John Kline's HR5 Student Success Act and Republican Senator Lamar Alexander's Every Child Achieves Act 2015 (S1177)
You, members of Grassroots America, killed HR5 last February. You can kill its companion bill S1177, which is coming up for a full vote in the Senate any day now.

More bean-spilling in 1990:
Lamar Alexander, former U.S. Secretary of Education, excerpted from article in Southern Living, 1990:
"The conclusion I've come to," he explains, "is that rather than tinkering with the same old vehicle, it would be better to start from scratch. I suggest we create a brand-new American school, as different from today's schoolhouse as the telegraph was from the Pony Express."
"Such a school," he continues, "would probably start with babies and go through the eighth grade. It would be all year long. It would be open 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Every child would have his or her own computer and workstation. Every child would have a team of teachers that would stay with that child until graduation."
