National Teleconference to Discuss NCLB Regulationsby Mary Ann Romans | More from this Blogger 11 Nov 2008 01:18 PM
ED officials will discuss the new regulations and answer any questions that have either been e-mailed in advance or asked during the conference. Questions will be subject to a protocol that will be explained at the beginning of the teleconference. The discussion will also have the aid of a powerpoint presentation that will be made available on the ED.gov website. What will be discussed? Well, there are a few topics of focus concerning these final regulations. One will be about the regulations concerning high school graduation rates. You can see my earlier blog post about this topic by clicking here: Schools Required to Improve Drop Out Rates. Other topics of discussion regarding the regulations include "supplemental education services and public school choice," according to the ED.gov website. Let me leave you with some places where you can more information about the Title 1 regulations. Both links will take you to the ED website.
