of students who have been left behind. the education bill should provide the support to those students and teachers so they can catch up. the waiver doesn't do that. there is no intention to redistrict the responsibility. from a state per view we welcome that and our waiver will be collusive of making sure we are responsible for all subgroups many. >> reporter: he says maryland schools will be prepared to lead students to academic success. >> we are about the task of working with every one of their superintendents to make sure that the focus is on raising the floor, making more courses available and then challenging our students, all of our students to be the very best they can be with the end goal
