No Child Left Behind

Thanks for the post, Ponine. Our school's situation is very strange and NCLB rules make it even stranger. We're a Charter High School operating inside the SF County jail system - what's unique about our situation is that since all of our students are 18 or over, we're at least partially exempt from many of the rules. However, since all of our students are "special needs" (they are all in jail, after all), there's a whole other set of rules we have to follow.

It's no wonder that half of our board members are attorneys.

I look forward to more of your take on this subject (and thanks Claire for starting the thread).
