    Follett Can Help You Gear Up for “No Child Left Behind”

    Earlier this year, President Bush signed the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act into law, as he vowed to turn the American education system around following many years of declining achievement. NCLB is an extensive bipartisan plan aimed at improving overall student performance and closing the achievement gap in America's public schools by focusing on four basic education reform principles:

  • Stronger accountability for results
  • Increased flexibility and local control
  • Expanded options for parents
  • Emphasis on proven teaching methods

    The new law grants additional funding to educators, and places heavy focus on the use of technology rather than simply providing access to technology.

    Thousands of Web Sites Help You Teach to State Standards
    In support of No Child Left Behind, we’ve enhanced our Find-It-All Collection’s Knowledge Links™ solution by aligning it to state standards. Knowledge Links helps students find the most relevant, safe information on the web by providing access to more than 170,000 high-quality web sites.

    You can feel confident that the content is reliable because educators have reviewed the sites for academic integrity and age appropriateness. And because the web site content is aligned to state standards, Knowledge Links makes it easy for you to meet the new NCLB reforms by helping you integrate standards-based resources into the classroom.
