Washington Update

Volume 9, Issue 3
May- June 2007

Dear NAFEPA Members:

Congratulations! You have completed the 2006-2007 school year. I hope your year was a successful one. It seems that the school years just go by so quickly, and now we get ready for 2007-08.

One of the highlights of this month is an article on the reauthorization of the ESEA legislation (NCLB). The article was written for NAFEPA, specifically for NAFEPA, by David De Schryver, the Legislative Director of the Brustein and Manasevit Law Firm. David has done an outstanding job of bringing us the most up to date information from Capitol Hill. Along with the update on the reauthorization, David has provided us with the items he feels will be in the revised legislation as well as those that are likely to be in it. He also tells us about the items that he believes will NOT be in the reauthorization of NCLB. This article is another excellent benefit to NAFEPA from our ongoing partnership with Brustein and Manasevit. You will find the article in your June-July newsletter and on the Members Only page at this web site.

We are also highlighting our recently inducted Honorary and Emeritus Members. Our latest Honorary Member is Jackie Jackson, from the U. S. Department of Education. We previously named Jack Jennings (Center on Education Policy) and Mary Jean LeTendre (formerly from the U. S. Department of Education) as our Honorary Members. Our new Emeritus Members are Mary Scott (Arkansas) and Leo Brown (Alabama). Our previously recognized Emeritus Members are Ambrosio Melendrez (Texas), Iva McCants (Mississippi), and Carley Ochoa (North Carolina and California). Information about all these great contributors to NAFEPA is on the Members Only page. On that page you will also find information about the 2007 recipients of the NAFEPA scholarships.

I have always heard that everything is bigger in Texas, and the recent membership report from there proves it. As a result of our new joint membership for states, we now have 764 members from the Lone Star state. A big thanks goes to Mitzi Doggett, Gloria Williams, Debra Baros, and Ambrosio Melendrez for their hard work in making this happen! The new joint membership allows state affiliates to include NAFEPA membership as part of the membership in their state organization. Many states have already elected to utilize the joint membership bringing our NAFEPA membership past the 2,500 mark for the first time in the history of NAFEPA.

Speaking of state affiliates, three states are taking the necessary steps to establish state affiliates (Mary McGrane (Colorado), Bob Harmon (Washington), and Sandra Pettit (Missouri), represent their home states on the NAFEPA Board of Directors, and they are working hard to develop stronger state associations. If you are reading this and you are from one of those states, contact the state representative as listed at the top of this page under: LEADERSHIP AND ORGANIZATION – BOARD OF DIRECTORS. If your state is not listed or does not have an established affiliate of NAFEPA, and you are interested in helping to establish one, please contact us for additional information.

I hope you and your family will find time this summer to kick back a little and enjoy yourselves. Remember…next school year is just around the corner.

Bobby Burns
President, NAFEPA

The Reauthorization of No Child Left Behind: Politics and Issues
by David De Schryver, Brustein & Manasevit
June 2007
 

The 110th Congress is now working on the eighth reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Act of 1965 (ESEA), most recently reauthorized as the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB). The process will be challenging for, at least, two reasons. First, Congress must reconcile the support for the law's core principles with the extreme frustration over its implementation and mechanics. Second, even if the education committees complete bills by the fall of 2007, the matter will likely fall prey to Washington's partisan election politics.

Indeed, the politics may actually be more challenging than the law's substantive debate (which may be a troubling sign of the times). So this overview considers the political setting that will determine the final reauthorization date. It then highlights the emerging consensus on key reauthorization issues.

The peculiar political background of NCLB is the key to understandings its fate. Congress passed NCLB in late 2001 because conservative Republicans and liberal Democrats rallied behind President Bush to grant the suddenly popular President his top domestic agenda item soon after 9/11. Both parties of the 107th Congress, however, entered the agreement with hesitancy. The conservative Republicans had to overcome their aversion to an expanded federal role in education and the Democrats agreed to let public education dollars flow to for-profit tutoring services, to a results-based accountability program and the infusion of more public school choice. Both parties claimed victory in 2001, but both now suffer from a something akin to buyer's remorse.

Five years later, the political calculations are considerably different because the new Democratic control of Congress has both parties scrambling to re-define themselves in preparation for the 2008 Congressional and Presidential elections. The Republican leadership seeks to avenge its 2006 mid-term election loss by re-establishing some of the party's pre-NCLB orthodoxy including an emerging position on education that appears to favor a return of the responsibility for education reform back to states. In March 2007, for example, House and Senate Republicans introduced the “A-Plus” bills, which would allow states to opt out of the current NCLB accountability regime. It was a clear signal that this Republican class was not likely to support the reauthorization of NCLB, as it now operates, and they are not likely going to back their President as they did in 2001.

The Democrats are also redefining themselves. Twelve years is a long time to be in the wilderness, and the new Democratic leadership is trying to avoid a two-years-and-out scenario. As such, the Democratic leadership is measuring the political consequence of every decision leading up to the 2008 Congressional and Presidential elections and they are focusing on their campaign promises, achievable victories, and a disciplined party voting record (which has not been a Democratic trait in prior Congresses).

NCLB's reauthorization is a priority for the Democrats, but not a “top priority” because it could pose a challenge to the party's unity. Many Democrats, particularly the freshmen, campaigned critically or against the law and would like to see their states take back the reigns of education accountability. Yet, this conflicts with the intent of the law's original architects and chairmen of the House and Senate education committees, Representative George Miller (D-CA) and Senator Edward Kennedy (D-MA). They are working to maintain the law's central accountability tenets while securing broad support for the many changes now under consideration.

Complicating the matter, the intra-party realignment is also generating strange new bedfellows. For example, liberal Democrats and conservative Republicans now find that they agree that NCLB's accountability provisions need watering down or removal, and this only makes the work more difficult for Miller and Kennedy. They are under pressure to produce some bills by fall, but this fluid re-alignment makes 2007 a very unattractive time to champion the law's core accountability provisions and bring it to a vote.

So when will the President sign a reauthorized law? As of spring 2007, the Washington edu-intelligentsia was predicting 2009, after the Presidential election. If Congress, the logic goes, does not pass a reauthorization in 2007, then the political rhetoric of the 2008 Congressional and Presidential elections will likely engulf the process. That, of course, would expose the reauthorization to extensive national political debate and transform the law into a creature of the 2008 election.

But do not be lulled into inactivity by the distant date. As you read this article, the House and Senate education committees are busy drafting the legislation that will become law. They are basing their work, in part, on Congressional hearings, experience with the law and the many recommendations they have received this spring. The legislative office of the Firm has been part of this recommendation process and has reviewed many of the submitted proposals. To get a better sense of what is ahead, we are sorting many of the proposals into one of the following three categories: what is likely to be in the in final law, what is possible for final law and what is unlikely to pass. So below you will find our latest forecast on the reauthorization's emerging trends.

Likely to See in Final Law . . . .

Our analysis of recent proposals and expert opinions suggest that some version of the following will be included in the final rendition of reauthorization:

Overall Structure Remains the Same: NCLB made a number of revolutionary changes to the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), including introducing some concepts that are now fundamental: 1) all students must be proficient by 2013-14; 2) analyzing subgroup accountability; 3) all teachers of core academic subjects must be “highly qualified,” and 4) students in failing schools are entitled to school choice and supplemental educational services (SES) from organizations chosen by the parents. A reauthorized ESEA will likely retain much of these revolutionary requirements that were first introduced in NCLB. It is an outstanding question whether a new law will still mandate 100% student proficiency by 2013-14 as a legal requirement, as opposed to an aspirational goal.

Growth Models: All major proposals to date have endorsed the use of a “growth” model or “improvement” model, as either a complement to or replacement for the existing “status” model. The technical details, however, remain the subject of disagreement. The resolution is not yet clear, but staffers are discussing the many options.

Focus on High Schools and College/ Workplace Readiness: There is an emerging consensus that the law will have a section to ensure that high schools prepare students for college and the workplace. This will likely include programs for the development of high school content standards and assessments that measures college and workplace readiness.

Increased Funding Authorization Levels: The perpetual debate over appropriate funding is …perpetual. The Democratic leadership has identified funding as a priority issue, so it is likely that the authorization levels for Title I will likely increase as part of reauthorization. Yet, these increases only become a reality through the annual appropriations process and that subjects the matter to a broader spectrum of competing interest, such as the costs of the war in Iraq, expanding Medicare and Medicaid commitments, and the increasing size of the deficit and national debt.

Possibilities for Final Law. . .

A number of key issues are certain to be the subject of intense debate, with the ultimate outcome less easy to predict, including:

National Standards: In response to concerns about widely varying definitions of proficiency, a consensus is emerging in support of some form of national standards, but how they are drafted and implemented remains an abstract discussion at this time.

Students with Disabilities (SWDs): Assessment and Accountability: All major proposals recognize the challenges to properly testing SWDs and many proposals would give the individual education program teams more authority to determine proper standards and assessments. This will be critical throughout the reauthorization, but the emerging consensus is not yet clear.

Limited English Proficient Students (LEP): Assessment and Accountability: The issues surrounding the testing of LEP students have challenged administrators nearly as much as testing SWDs. The current law frames the issues around how long an LEP student has attended US schools, giving a reading test exemption for an LEP student's first year in the country. Numerous proposals have recommended expanding the current testing exemption beyond one year. There is also support for extending the period for using “residual inclusion,” which currently allows the test scores of former LEP students to be included in the LEP subgroup for adequate yearly progress (AYP) purposes for two AYP determination cycles. Like SWD issues, this will be a critical to the reauthorization.

Targeted Interventions for School Improvement Determinations: There is an emerging census to target school interventions based on the nature and scope of the school's failure to make AYP and to target that intervention to subgroups that triggered the status. There is also substantial support for districts being able to provide SES in the first year of school improvement, although proposals differ as to whether SES would be offered in addition to or in lieu of school choice.

Highly Qualified Teachers (HQT): The emerging consensus is for the reauthorized law to retain the current HQT structure but grant more exceptions to its credentialing requirements, to grant more flexibility for multiple subject teachers and teachers who instruct SWDs, to design incentives that would attract teachers into high need subjects and schools, and to provide better professional development.

Unlikely to Pass . . . .

In this political climate, it is clear that certain proposals will not advance, notably:

Private School Vouchers: If vouchers were not politically viable when Republicans controlled the White House and both chambers of Congress back in 2001, it is a forgone conclusion that not much political capital will be spent trying to push vouchers through the 110th Congress.

To be sure, the substantive revisions of the reauthorization will keep Congress busy this summer and the politics of it all will make it entertaining for those of us who monitor Congress. Please feel free to contact us to stay informed on the latest developments.

The Elementary and Secondary Act of 1965 has been reauthorized in 1974, 1978, 1981 (Consolidation Act), 1984, 1988 (Hawkins Stafford Act), 1994 (Improving America's Schools Act) and in 2001 (No Child Left Behind Act). There have also been numerous amendments that effect ESEA since 1965.

The list of our new NAFEPA members is so large that we are unable to show all the names this month. If you are a new member from California or Texas, we apologize for not having your name listed, but you will be at the top of the page in the next newsletter.

NAFEPA membership reached 2,514 on June 12, the day this newsletter went to the printers. Considering that our organization was under 1,000 for years, and then slowly started growing four years ago, we were shocked to see that 2,500 number emerging!. Our two largest states are Texas and California, but we have many states that have reached the 100 mark. We will have a full report for you on our web page.
