NCLB and Charter Schools

This presentation was really cool! All three of you made it not only informative but fun. I loved that you used video, volunteers to demonstrate the funding problems within our schools, and group activity. Plus candy doesn't hurt either! I really enjoyed learning about NCLB (No Child Left Behind) since I have not had much experience learning about this legal issue. I especially loved that you let the groups create their own schools, this was one way in which not only everyone was participating but everyone was enjoying it! Plus it really got me thinking about what I would want to include in a school, the wishes the I have for the future of our school systems. I also loved that we discussed the pros and cons with NCLB because all too often only one side of the story is told. It was also really interesting to learn about charter schools considering I did not know a lot about them, what they do, who can start them, and what types of laws or state restrictions they have to adhere to. I want to let you guys know that you did an awesome job!
