McCain, Obama, And Leaving No Child Behind
One thing both presidential candidates agree on is that the education system — particularly No Child Left Behind — is broken. Andrea Seabrook looks to Florida to learn about the law's realities. She talks with parent Michael Accardi of Boynton Beach and with Richard Ellenburg, an elementary science teacher and Florida's 2008 Teacher of the Year. Their stories highlight the benefits and the problems of No Child Left Behind.
Seabrook then asks the education adviser to Sen. Barack Obama, Linda Darling-Hammond, and the adviser to Sen. John McCain, Lisa Graham Keegan, to explain the candidates' plans for U.S. education.
