Moving Every Child Ahead

Acting as a counterbalance to the current unworkable law, this book proposes a more realistic way to achieve NCLB's inspiring vision by ensuring the right to "meaningful educational opportunity" for all students. This timely volume tackles specific provisions in NCLB head-on, such as the popular, but impossible, goal of 100% student proficiency by 2014.

"At last, a book on No Child Left Behind that makes sense to school practitioners. All who care about the future of our public schools should read this book as soon as possible!"
Thomas Sobol, Former Commissioner of Education, New York State

"Moving Every Child Ahead is an important work from two leaders in the fight to guarantee a decent education for every child. Rebell and Wolff have written a must-read for everyone concerned about education reform."
Senator John Edwards

"Rebell and Wolff set forth compelling reasons for their recommendations and suggest specific steps that should be taken by local, state, and federal education officials.  Anyone who cares about improving our public schools would benefit from their thoughtful insights and suggestions for Moving Every Child Ahead."
Richard Riley, Former U.S. Secretary of Education

"Michael Rebell has long been a warrior in the fight for educational equity. I am confident this book will enrich a debate sorely in need of big ideas and a willingness to challenge traditional orthodoxies."
Joel Klein, Chancellor, New York City Department of Education
