The No Child Left Behind Act was implemented in order to achieve higher academic standards, proficiency in English language, and create education reform.This legislation has put public schools in a position that focuses on core subjects such as math and language arts, and teaching to the standardized tests and nothing else. This legislation pressures teachers to instruct children enough to just pass the test or “ fill in bubbles” rather than problem solve and comprehend the material. Instead of teaching alternative methods of learning, getting the right answer on a bubble sheet has become the main focus because of this legislation .
