[quote=Anonymous]So the state of Maryland was granted a waiver from meeting the requirement of No Child Left Behind. Instead the Maryland state's new initiative is "Maryland's Race to the Top." http://www.marylandpublicschools.org/MSDE/programs/race_to_the_top An excerpt from the link above: "On August 24, 2010, Maryland was awarded one of the federal government’s coveted Race to the Top grants in the amount of $250 million over four years. The RTTT program is aimed at boosting student achievement, [b]reducing gaps in achievement among student subgroups,[/b] turning around struggling schools, and improving the teaching profession." One way to boost student achievement and reducing gaps in achievement among student subgroups is too make the curriculum less challenging, so everyone can achieve the same level. One size fits all is Curriculum 2.0. [/quote]
