Maryland is getting a waiver from the federal No Child Left Behind law.
The waiver, one of eight announced by the U.S. Department of
Education on Tuesday and one of 19 total, was granted in exchange for
promises to improve how students are prepared and evaluated.
Maryland's interim schools Superintendent Bernard Sadusky says the
state is not turning its back on accountability, but concentrating on
schools with the greatest needs.
Officials say the flexibility plan parallels the state's Race to the Top project.
