NY Receives Waiver for No Child Left Behind Act
(ALBANY, N.Y.) -- New York was among seven other states who were granted a waiver Tuesday for the No Child Left Behind act that requires proficiency in state math and English exams by 2014, the New York Times reports.
The waiver allows the state freedom from requirements that were “unproductive or unrealistic,” New York state education commissioner, John B. King, said.
The federal government has waived 19 states from the law in 2012.
