Idaho Fails to Qualify for No Child Left Behind Waiver

(BOISE) – Idaho’s education administrators have been among the toughest critics of the federal “No Child Left Behind” laws, but the state still doesn’t qualify for a waiver. Idaho is still bound to the law’s toughest requirements after failing to make a list of exempt states released Tuesday. State Superintendent Tom Luna says the law sets unrealistic benchmarks and wants Idaho to adopt its own school accountability system.
