What should I do if my child's school fails to meet the No Child Left Behind standards?

When a parent realises that a school does not meet No Child Left Behind the standards, the question is to communicate with the school itself; with the school principal, to find out what the school is doing to meet those No Child Left Behind standards. It could have been, for example, that there's been an influx of new students coming in and now they have to reorganise some things. Well, that takes time to do; that's nothing serious. It could be that the school doesn't have qualified teachers in there; that there are emergency teachers or all the teachers are new and they don't have a lot of experience. That's something that can be done and it needs to be addressed. So, the No Child Left Behind legislation provides a format to allow that conversation to happen by publishing these scores. It's really up to the parent to go to the principal or to attend a meeting to find out how the school is going to remediate; what steps they are taking to correct the problem so that they start making progress.
