S. Department of Education, 2004a). The evaluator feels it is imperative that as teacher preparation programs, along with state and local education agencies, address the training, recruitment, and retention of highly qualified teachers and conduct counseling sessions for every American classroom.
Teacher education programs can prepare future teachers to work in true collaborative arrangements with a variety of community stakeholders and families by helping teachers and school administrators understand the mandates, timelines, and overall missions of other public human services agencies. This type of information is critical and could be easily incorporated into the general and special education teacher preparation curricula, including field experiences in schools as well as in community human service agencies (such as mental health centers or juvenile justice).
As more educators are trained and become implementers of this evidence-based practice, schools can take the lead in handling students with EBD. School personnel need to understand how to proactively design, develop, and expand prevention and early intervention strategies that address student behavior through the use of Positive Behavior Support (PBS). Implementation of PBS will promote a school-based leadership team approach that supports school personnel in a problem-solving process to create healthy and supportive school environments for all students and their families, as well as school personnel. PBS has demonstrated its effectiveness in reducing discipline problems in schools across the country. Only as these recommendations become reality throughout state and federal human service systems, including the nation's educational systems, can our country fulfill the promise of a transformed mental health care delivery system that supports healthy children, families, and communities. Working toward these goals in our schools and communities will provide guidelines that can lead to better outcomes for children and adolescents with EBD.
State education agencies, universities, local school districts, and other policymaking entities need to improve existing services for all students, especially those students with the poorest academic outcomes (i.e., students with disabilities, students at risk of school failure, children from diverse backgrounds). In addition to strengthening existing programs and supports, creative policy makers and program developers will need to identify the gaps in community-based services according to variables such as equity across geographic locations, socioeconomic...
Students with EBD or mental health needs require a multidisciplinary team approach to support their success.
It is a true transformation of service delivery systems that promotes better outcomes for children through strengthened partnerships between families, education, mental health personnel, and other human service providers. It is our hope that this paper will encourage more conversations among leadership in higher education, state education agencies, schools, families, and communities to achieve the promise -- the promise to help all children live happy, healthy lives within their communities.

Review and Comment Indications suggest that Obama will endorse a rewritten version of No Child Left Behind once requirements like teacher quality and academic standards are toughened up to focus more attention on failing schools. This will mean more, not less, federal involvement in the program. Overall, reaction to Obama's plans are negative. Most who were opposed to Bush's policy had hoped for a brand new start rather than a rehash
No Child Left Behind When it was first initiated, the No Child Left Behind Act was intended to make schools accountable for the education of their students. This federal Elementary and Secondary Education Act was supposed to improve the quality of education for all children in the United States. This paper will show, however, that in many school districts, the No Child Left Behind Act has had the opposite effect. As
For Bush, the "formation and refining of policy proposals" (Kingdon's second process stream in policymaking) came to fruition when he got elected, and began talking to legislators about making educators and schools accountable. Bush gave a little, and pushed a little, and the Congress make its own changes and revisions, and the policy began to take shape. The third part of Kingdon's process stream for Bush (politics) was getting the
Many states don't want to lower their standards, including Minnesota, New Hampshire and Hawaii, and legislators have seriously debated withdrawing from NCLB, even though it would mean they would lose federal money that is tied to it. However, as the first national suit points out, no funding except the promised NCLB funding is supposed to be tied to it; the Education Department has apparently been making its own interpretation
