Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 87 / Monday, May 7, 2007 / Notices
pwalker on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES
(NCLB) Act of January 8, 2001, requires
all schools, including BIE-funded
boarding/residential schools, to ensure
that all children have a fair, equal, and
significant opportunity to obtain a highquality education and reach, at a
minimum, proficiency on challenging
academic achievement standards and
assessments. In addition, the BIE is
required by NCLB to implement
national standards for home-living
situations in all BIE-funded residential
schools. The BIE is required to assess
each residential school and submit a
plan to the Congress, Tribes and schools
which will bring all BIE-funded
residential schools up to the national
standards. Information from all BIEfunded residential schools must be
collected in order to assess each
school’s progress in meeting the
national standards. Finally, the BIE is
required to monitor programs, gather
data, and complete reports for the U.S.
Department of Education. To achieve
these results, residential schools must
prepare reports, develop curriculum,
prepare financial planning documents,
and establish standards to measure
student progress. The BIE uses the
Annual Report to the Department of
Education and three other information
collections for the BIE to collect data,
measuring each school’s performance.
When there is a lack of progress, the
residential schools must show that they
have developed school improvement,
corrective action, or restructuring plans
to address the problems of all students.
Additional information collection
requirements have been developed to
implement the No Child Left Behind
Act.
