Abstract	The No Child Left Behind Act is slated to be reauthorized in 2007, and both President Bush and the leaders of the incoming Democratic-controlled Congress have signaled their interest in keeping renewal of the law on schedule. Many observers expect the debate over renewing the law--which itself was a reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, first passed in 1965--to touch on at least a half-dozen other big ideas for changes. Those themes include proposals for national academic standards; accountability models that measure students' learning growth; testing and achievement targets for special populations, such as students with disabilities and English-language learners; revisions in the sanctions for schools that miss their performance targets; greater accountability for high schools; and more attention to teacher quality. These ideas are discussed in this article. (ERIC).
