Taking up a number of policy areas affected by the lawincluding accountability and assessment, curriculum and instruction, teacher quality, parental involvement, school choice and urban educationthis book examines the effects of NCLB on different groups of students and schools and the ways in which school organization and structure affect achievement. No Child Left Behind concludes with a discussion of the important contributions of sociological research and sociological analysis integral to understanding the limits and possibilities of the law to reduce the achievement gap.
