More Proof NCLB Does Not Exist
At least in New York State. The latest "Reading First" mess comes in the form of an audit of New York State's handling of millions of dollars in reading grants under the federal law. Auditors pretty much found the state was doing very little to assure and/or document that districts were doing anything at all that they were supposed to with the reading money.
Now the state is supposed to return $118 million in Reading First grants, including $38 million for NYC.
Like that's ever going to happen.
