What does the No Child Left Behind Act require from students in grades 3-8?

Annual auditions for extracurricular activities
Yearly assessments in reading and math
Volunteer work in the community
Participation in personal development workshops

The correct answer is: Yearly assessments in reading and math

The No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) mandates that students in grades 3-8 participate in yearly assessments in reading and math. This requirement aims to ensure accountability in education by measuring student performance and progress in these core subjects. The intention is to provide educational stakeholders—including parents, educators, and policymakers—with data that can inform decisions and strategies to improve educational outcomes for all students. Assessments are administered annually to track proficiency levels and ensure that all students are making adequate yearly progress toward academic standards. This focus on standardized testing has been a fundamental aspect of NCLB, as it sought to close achievement gaps among different student demographics and promote educational quality nationwide. The other options do not align with the NCLB requirements and are not focused on the mandates set by the legislation to assess and monitor academic performance in critical subject areas.
