Leave No Child Behind

This act can work and become very meaningful in the lives of all children. Originally, it was titled Leave No Child Behind and was developed by Marion Wright Edelman, founder of Children's Defense Fund. Her mission was to empower every child by teaching them to read at an age appropriate level. She has been extremely successful in her movement. Children who can read, generally perform better in all of their courses. Instead of stealing someone elses ideas and relabeling them, perhaps President Bush should just provide her with the funding to reach more children. Currently, they have only been able to serve approximately 9000 children.
