but i'm also the child development representative. so i've been in this district for 27 years and so i know a lot about the ins and outs but tonight i'm here to talk about what's happening in our department right now. our early education department philosophy states that we believe that all children have a right to be treated with dignity and respect. and to play and learn in a safe and healthy environment. we strongly believe that families and school staff are partners in building this -- in building the children's social and emotional well being to ensure a successful school experience for them. but right now, this philosophy has been shattered. if you remember the board approved layoffs back in march, and so now, k-12 has been called back, they got a letter, in fact, some of our people got letters too, saying congratulations all the layoffs have been called off, but that's not the reail -- reality for us. our teachers and parents are not being treated with dignity and respect. how can we believe that our children who we say we shou

was the goal of title i to see to it that every child every child is making improvements in reading comprehension and math matter ibs. we knew when we wrote it that if the bill worked it would become harder and harder and harder to reach a.y.p. because the base line was being built every single year. and the reason senator alexander talked about so many schools falling into needs improvement is because we've pushed the achievement level so high that meeting a.y.p. on a continually improving basis is difficult. it is time to terminate a.y.p. as a requirement of the bill but it's not time to throw out the system that made it work. disaggregation of students first of all was critically important. in public education in the united states prior to the no child left behind law, school systems and schools basically hid behind mean average scores or an itbs mean average store. a compareson to other states in the nation which was an aggregation of all students' performance and an averaging of that performance. it took the eye off the ball, took the eye off the individual student. what no child left behind

it has to be the right of every child in this country. it should not be a question as to whether some kids get it and some kids don't. i do think what the obama administration is trying to do was the right idea, meaning instead of continuing to funnel out federal dollars without a lot of accountability, which obviously has proven not to be particularly effective, to say we are going to use the carrot approach. we are going to put dollars up there to say if states can change their regulations, their laws, their policies, to ensure we can have more competition, to ensure we are rewarding high- performing teachers and closing down low-performing schools -- we are going to in sent -- incent you to do that. i do not think anybody can quarrel with the fact that we saw more legislative movement on education reform because of race to the top than we had for the two decades before then. tavis: i raised this issue because it concerns me. the government can mandate through this program that kids have to be tested. all across the country, 50 states,
