NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND

2005-2006

 

 

“The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 recognizes that all children can achieve the same high standards and must be provided the education they need to reach those standards.  Successful students academic performance depends upon the opportunity to attend schools that:

 

 

The Department of Education performance goals:

·        Performance goal 1:  By 2013-2014, all students will reach high standards, at a minimum attaining proficiency or better in reading/ language arts and mathematics. 

·        Performance goal 2:  All limited English proficient students will become proficient in English and reach high academic standards, at a minimum attaining proficiency or better in reading/language arts and mathematics.

·        Performance goal 3:  By 2005-2006, all students will be taught by highly qualified teachers.

·        Performance goal 4:  All students will be educated in learning environments that are safe, drug free, and conducive to learning.

·        Performance goal 5:  All students will graduate from high school.

 

Boles ISD supports the premise of the No Child Act of 2001 and has incorporated the Department of Education Performance goals into our Campus Improvement Plan.
