By Staff Reporter of the Sun | December 5, 2007
An architect of the federal No Child Left Behind law who is currently working to get the legislation reauthorized, with changes, said yesterday New York City programs are teaching him a lesson in how to do that. Rep. George Miller, a Democrat from California and the chairman of the House education committee, singled out two programs as particularly "ground breaking": a test program to give bonuses to teachers in schools that show progress on tests, and the city's new report cards for schools.
