Description

The federal No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) has helped stimulate improvements in some Midwestern schools and districts, while, at the same time, producing controversies similar to those in other parts of the country. Compared to the rest of the nation, a much lower percentage of public schools in four of the five Upper Midwestern states have been designated as needing improvement (South Dakota is the exception). This policy brief describes how five Upper Midwestern states (Iowa, Minnesota, North and South Dakota, and Wisconsin) have responded to the NCLB legislation, contrasting the results to date and describing the diverse approaches of the region’s states.
