According to the U.S. Department of Education, the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) is designed to improve student achievement and change the culture of America's schools.

With passage of No Child Left Behind, Congress reauthorized the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA)--the principal federal law affecting education from kindergarten through high school.
