Abstract | President George W. Bush's "No Child Left Behind" plan for educational improvement is based on four principles: accountability for results; local control and flexibility; expanded parental choice; and effective and successful programs. Improving education, however, will require more than just state officials, school boards, and school superintendents--communities will play an important role in providing oversight, ideas, and accountability. This guide explains what people can do to improve instruction and make schools more accountable for student performance. The guide shows community members some of the resources they can use to make sure "no child is left behind." It specifically shows: what high standards mean and do; what to look for in test scores; how communities can hold schools accountable for results; how to improve reading instruction; and where to turn for more information on how to get involved.
