The rhetoric of the reading wars has become more than just an armchair academic debate, but is encoded now in the very laws, house and senate bills, and legislative policies of the majority of the states. In turn, these policies are powered by staggering sums of money such as the 90-million-dollar investment of Fulton County, Georgia in a revamp…

The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) is the most significant and controversial change in federal education policy since the federal government assumed a major role in American education almost four decades ago.

McIntyre, Ellen; Powell, Rebecca; Coots, Kelly Bright; Jones, Deneese; Powers, Sherry; Deeters, Faye; Petrosko, Joe – Journal of Educational Research & Policy Studies, 2005
In the past few years many states in the U.S. have moved toward full implementation of the federal No Child Left Behind (NCLB) act.
