The No Child Left behind Act (NCLB)
of 2001 was signed into law on January 8, 2002 by President Bush. The law states that schools with economically disadvantaged students (Title I schools)
that do not make sufficient progress toward state-set progress goals for two consecutive years are identified for improvement, and
students attending such schools may obtain supplemental educational services, such as tutoring
and other academic assistance, from state approved providers, with costs paid by the school district.
