In the past week I have talked to a number of teachers and administrators about different issues pertaining to next semester. I have been told three times so far that the school cannot manage A or B anymore becasue Individual Student Goals(or whatever the technical name is) cannot be honored because of the NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND ACT.
I am a Texas public school teacher. From your post, I'm certain that you do not live in Texas. My first question is this: What are "Individual Student Goals"?

We homeschooled. I am SURE there is a lot of C-rap dished out in the Public Schools. You can bet they don't sing God Bless America. My sister is a (conservative) teacher -- she says that No Child Left Behind is terrible, so many tedious rules. Even worse, I think, are the teachers' unions; they are liberal all the way, and then some. imho.

I think the correct term is ILP INDIVIDUAL LEARNING PLANS

If your child has an IEP then they have individual student goals.
