About the Book

Interviewer:If you had an opportunity to have a voice in the upcoming reenactment of No Child Left Behind, what would be the one thing that you would like to see implemented to reach or close that gap in the No Child Left Behind Act? Mrs. Handy:The one thing that I would like to see implemented that is not in the act at all, I would like for there to be some aspect of the law, which address the involvement of parents. There is absolutely nothing in the law in terms of the accountability of parents in terms of what role parents play in the education of their children. Interviewer: What can individual teachers do to help minimize achievement gap concerns? Ms. Carroll: So individual teachers, I believe, can make the most difference by accepting, as I said, the people who come in your classroom. Finding out who they are, where they come from, what they are functioning in everyday in the classroom and outside of the classroom and try to make it all relevant and make it worthwhile to a student. You know, if I have no reason to come here and you are not giving me a reason to show me that what you have is better than what I've got, I'm not going to pay attention to you. Interviewer: What in your opinion is needed to close the achievement gaps for all students? Mr. Garnes: I think you need several things to take place. I think you need to be able to analyze student's strengths and weaknesses. I think being able to identify root causes is key and being able to develop a plan within the school to meet the needs. Whether it be through remediation, teacher training in terms of using strategies in the classroom that work. Interviewer: Describe your thoughts on the standards imposed by the "No Child Left Behind" in helping all students achieve equally. Dean Dumpson: Well, I think that the "No Child Left Behind" Act is a wonderful Act. But we all have to be realistic and understand that every child does not learn at the same rate. Every adult does not learn at the same rate. Interviewer: What can the parents do to help to minimize and or close this achievement gap concern with their children? Or with students in general? Interviewee: So, what I'm trying to say is that some of the things that parents are doing, they are not really parenting their kids. The kids themselves, parent themselves. The kids, you know, they are focused as well, "What I can do right now." You know, as far as trying to take care of the car or phone and just try to enjoy myself as oppose to, "Well what kind of career choices are you going to make?" You know, what you might do when you get out of school. How are you going to get there? Where do you see yourself maybe five... 10 years down the road?
