High Schools Accountability ModelsExpand NCLB accountability provisions to grades 9, 10 and 11; Accountability for graduation rates.
Democrats, Republicans and Business Leaders agree that:
“The biggest education issue confronting the United States over the next 10 years is the goal of getting all high school graduates ready for college and the changing workplace.”
U.S. Department of Education Proposals for Reauthorization of NCLB (2008 modified sections)
a. Improve Graduation Ratesb. Ensure That Students Graduate Ready to Succeedc. Promote Rigor in High School Courseworkd. Increase Funding for High Schools That Serve
Low-Income Studentse. Provide Additional Staffing Freedom at the Most
Troubled Schoolsf. Augment Charter School Optionsg. Enhanced Supplemental Educational Services
(SES)h. Provide Equitable Services to Private School
Students and Teachers
Title I, Part A – Disadvantaged Children Meet High Academic Standards:
Graduation Promise Fund
• Establishes, identifies and provides services to middle school students who are most at risk of dropping out
• Provides counseling services to students at risk of dropping out
Title I, Part A – Disadvantaged Children Meet High Academic Standards:
College and Work-Ready Standards and Assessments
• Provides incentives to states to review, revise standards aligned with skills and knowledge necessary for success in college and the workforce
• States would align assessments to standards, ensure that they measure problem-solving and application of knowledge, and meet high technical quality standards

U.S.A. 72.6 73.9 74.1 74.4* The rate is the number of graduates divided by the count of freshman 4 years earlier. The averaged freshman enrollment count is the sum of the number of 8th graders 5 years earlier, 9th graders 4 years earlier, and the number of 10th graders 3 years earlier divided by three.

1. Improve the English language skills (reading and writing) of students in the fourth grade.
“Children learn how to read by the fourth grade and read to learn beyond that level.” The Baltimore Sun, 2001
2. Improve the mathematical skills of middle school students
“Presently, fewer than two in ten eighth graders are on target to be ready for college-level work by the time they graduate from high school.” ACT, The Forgotten Middle, 2008
3. Improve the mathematics and science course-taking pattern at the high school level for all students.
“The biggest education issue confronting the United States over the next 10 years is the goal of getting all high school graduates ready for college and the changing workplace.” U.S. Congressional Report on Education, 2007
