No Child Left Behind

June 14, 2001

 

Dear Members:

Thank you for your strong support of my initiatives to ensure that no child in America is left behind. Your work has been significant in helping parents, teachers, and the public understand what it takes to make sure that all children will receive a quality education and that all students are given the opportunity to succeed. You also have helped us effectively communicate our message that administrators, teachers, schools, and students must be held to high standards and must be required to demonstrate strong results.

I am encouraged by our progress, but work remains to be done. Bipartisan solutions are within our reach. The National Federation of Republican Women will play a crucial role in securing support for high standards and strong accountability measures in our Nation's schools. I wish you the best of luck as you plan state summits all across the country to gain grassroots support for our common goal of ensuring that every child in America receives a high quality education.

Sincerely,

George W. Bush
