Make Your Voice Heard on the Implementation of the New Every Student Succeeds Act! Take Action Now!
Currently the Department of Education is accepting comments on the implementation of Title I under the newly reauthorized Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). PTA is committed to making sure this law keeps meaningful family engagement a focus, and states receive both greater clarity over terminology included in the language and regulations on aspects such as assessments, under performing subgroups, and technical requirements that define school quality or student success.
Re-authorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA – ESSA) was just the first step. We now need to make sure our Department of Education produces the much needed regulations and procedures that are the best for all our kids.
