No Child Left Behind? critiques several federal and local laws aimed at improving education, arguing they are counterproductive for low-income schools. The document notes that while laws like No Child Left Behind and Race to the Top aim to help all students, Florida ranks poorly in per-pupil funding and student achievement. The system seems designed for continued failure of low-income schools rather than meaningful progress, as no schools have met adequate yearly progress targets and studies show students are not actually learning more. The conclusion questions if Common Core is the solution and what will occur now that No Child Left Behind is ending.
Integrating Technology-Enhanced Instruction to Narrow the Academic Achievemen...jamathompson
There is not a universal approach in meeting the learning needs of all students. Students have different learning styles that promote higher success in the classroom compared to other learning styles. Literature has demonstrated African American students’ diverse learning needs and preferred learning styles were not consistently being addressed in the classroom. Hence, some African American students were not learning and began to perform at a lower grade level. The presenter will provide suggestions of various technology-enhanced instructional strategies and its potential impact on African American student achievement. Additionally, the presenter will provide educators with several implications that can be applied to their current classroom setting.

DELINQUENCY
THE CORE 5E
Chapter 9:
Schools and Delinquency
Modern American Schools
School plays a significant role in shaping values of youth
Today, more than 90% of school-age children attend school
School has become the primary instrument of socialization
Because young people spend a longer time in school, their
adolescence is prolonged
Young people rely increasing on school friends and become less
interested in adult role models
Modern American Schools
• Primary determinant of social/economic status
• School itself is an engine of social change and
improvement
• African American youth
educated in states where
a higher proportion of
their classmates are
European American
experience lower
incarceration rates
Education Trends and Issues
There has been some improvement in reading, math, and
science achievement during the past decade, but
improvements have been minimal
Many secondary math and science teachers did not major in the
subjects they teach
US devotes less of its resources to education than do many other
nations
Economic Disadvantage and Educational
Achievement
Economically disadvantaged children usually enter school
lagging behind their more advantaged peers
They face substantial gaps in reading and math proficiency, in
prosocial behaviors and behavior problems, and in readiness to
learn
Many disadvantaged children fail to meet grade-level expectations on
core subjects
They face higher rates of special education placement and grade
repetition
Dropping Out
Nearly 1/3 of all high school students leave the public school system
before graduating, especially minority students and students with
disabilities
Effects of dropping out mixed
Some say significantly increases delinquency
Some find no link
Reasons for dropping out:
Educational factors:
Kids who show disinterest in school are more likely to drop out - failed courses, low
grade point average, absences, falling behind and getting pushed out
Social factors:
Left because they did not like school, they wanted to get a job, could not get along with
teachers, had been expelled or were suspended
Poverty and family dysfunction increase chances of dropping out
Race and Dropping Out
Minority students drop out at a higher rate than European
American students
According to Dorn, the relatively high dropout rate among minorities
is the legacy of disciplinary policies enacted when educational
administrators opposed school desegregation
Dorn believes that the dropout problem is a function of inequality of
educational opportunities, rather than the failure of individual students
Payne and Welch found that administrators and teachers in urban
scho ...

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. Introduction
•“Education is the most powerful weapon” Nelson
Mandela
•Students in low income schools though are not equipped
with the right ammunition or weapon
•Local and Federal laws are counterproductive to the
enhancement of the education of low income schools.
3. Federal Laws and Local Laws
•No Child Left Behind (TheAct)
•Race to the top (The Race)
•Title I
•Chapter 1011 ofTitle XLVIII
4. Ranking
•Florida ranks 42nd in per pupil funding and 48th for state
funding
•Florida ranked 44th overall in student achievement
5. The issue
•The system is set for continual failure not for the upward
progression of schools, especially those in low income
areas.
•No school has met AYP (AdequateYearly Progress)
•If students are learning then this is not a bad thing but
studies have shown that they are not.
