Principal Asks Teachers To Reconsider Grades to Comply with No Child Left Behind

While I agree with NCLB in theory, it has been shown to have significant bugs, especially as related to special education stuedents. It is wrong for the principla to ask his teachers to do this, but this is the position you place educators in when you tie funding to academic performance. I don't know what the answer is as I am not an educator, but there must be some compromise that would not put students in danger of this type of process, and get a true indicator of their progress.
