Education Secretary Margaret Spellings says the so-called National
Dashboards
<http://www.ed.gov/nclb/accountability/results/progress/index.html>—one
for each state and the District of Columbia—will help parents and
policymakers better understand how states stack up against each
other in terms of academic performance. That way, trouble or
progress toward meeting the federal goals outlined under No Child
Left Behind (NCLB) can be identified earlier.
