From Impact to Action, YEO Network Tele-Conference presenters analyzed the current status of No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) and answered questions about its reauthorization.

Presenters included:

Roberto Rodriguez, Senior Education Advisor to US Senator Edward Kennedy

Below are resources from the conference, including handouts from the NEA and sample policy shared by YEO State Rep. David Schapira (AZ). Anyone that has questions for Mr. Rodriguez about the act, or wants to share ideas with the YEO Education Task Force, should contact Alisha Morgan.

Board Member Carmelo Garcia (Hoboken, NJ)

"Growing up, I witnessed many injustices to minorities and to those of the underprivileged class. I vowed that someday, I would be a voice for the voiceless and promised to make a difference in how our government works for its people."
