Describe the Every Student Succeeds Act and the flexibility states have when implementing the law.

What will be an ideal response?


The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) is the most recent initiative in U.S. education. It was passed into law in December 2015 and is scheduled for implementation during the 2018-2019 school year. ESSA retains annual testing for reading and writing success in grades 3 to 8, then once more in high school. States can also scale back the role that test scores play in holding schools accountable for student achievement. In addition, schools must use at least one nonacademic factor-such as student engagement-when tracking schools' success.
