Perhaps what we really need is to revamp our entire educational system. 'No child left behind' and other initiatives are aimed at helping one group of children. WHy not revamp the system for all children?
Well... I guess that the primary reasons might be teacher unions, parents who don't want any child labelled as more special than their child, burocrats who have entrenched themselves in a system that doesn't work very well for many many kids, etc.
Does seem a shame though - wouldn't an educational system built on meeting the educational needs of the kids be cool?
