Will current proposed revisions to the No Child Left Behind Act benefit public education?

A little over a year ago, when we asked, "Can the No Child Left Behind Act be revised and improved? [2]" votes were split fifty-fifty. Today, even closer to the reauthorization of NCLB, national sentiment appears to be no less contentious. Though current proposed revisions include easing penalties for schools that barely miss academic targets, broadening the kinds of assessments used to measure student progress, and making testing allowances for special education students and English-language learners, the law's detractors are still fiercely opposed to it. Many people find these changes to be cosmetic in nature, doing little to solve the problems NCLB has caused. Tell us what you think.
