POL 201: American National Government

Every Student Succeeds Act


Many people felt that students in certain areas were not being provided equal treatment



and were being overlooked by the No Child Left Behind Act. The Every Student Succeeds Act



was signed by President Obama on December 10, 2015 (Lee, 2018), to address this issue. As the



nation's leading education law, Every Students Succeeds Act (ESSA) holds schools accountable



for their students' learning and achievement and aims to provide an equal education experience



for students with disabilities (Lee, 2018). States are more involved in the implementation of



education plans by deciding on a deadline given by the government based on the performance of



the school, including disadvantaged students. Acts like this are needed because they ensure



accountability by making sure that when a student falls behind, resources will be available for



them to assist them. Our children are the future, and every child, regardless of their

, circumstances, should be given equal opportunity while in school. Race, wealth, or



impairments




should not be barriers to their achievement. Every student should be given the tools they need to



achieve their goals in the future.



Historical and Constitution Background



Long before the Every Student Succeeds Act, schools had a historical and constitutional

foundation. The Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), which was reauthorized in

December 2015, foreshadows significant changes in accountability and evaluation in the future.

The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) is the name of the updated version (Wardlow, 2016).

The ESEA was established in 1965 by Lyndon B. Johnson's administration. In the 1930s,

President Johnson worked as a teacher and witnessed directly how the government failed these

youngsters in American schools especially those who were poverty stricken. The original ESEA

legislation was enacted as a civil rights measure in response to poverty and educational

imbalance across the country. ESEA provided federal grants to districts that served low-income

kids, as well as grants for books, education centers, and low-income college scholarships. "Full

educational opportunity" should be "our first national goal," according to President Johnson

(Wardlow, 2016). Because students were not learning and thriving as they should in schools,

President George W. Bush opted to reauthorize ESSA as the No Child Left Behind Act in 2002.
