A lot of Work

While I’m no fan of the NEA lawsuit claiming that NCLB is an unfunded mandate, it seems like this recent ED announcement bolsters the NEA’s case.
It basically says that ED expects states, districts, and schools to spend collectively 6.5 million hours on NCLB-related data collection and reporting, an increase of 3.9 million hours over pre-NCLB days.
Irony of the day: this is all part of the "Paperwork Reduction Act."
