| Title | US Education Department Issues New Policy for Calculating Participation Rates Under No Child Left Behind |
| Body | In an effort to help states implement the No Child Left Behind Act , the U.S. Department of Education recently announced new policies for calculating participation rates -- the percentage of enrolled students who participate in an assessment program. The announcement was made at the National School Boards Associations 64th annual conference in Orlando, Fla. States will be able to average participation rates over a three-year period. In addition, students who are unable to take the test during the testing and make-up windows because of a unique, significant medical emergency will not count against the schools participation rate.
