Accountability Under ESSA

The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) is the latest reauthorization of the 1965 Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) and was approved by the U.S. Congress and signed into law in December 2015. ESSA, which replaces the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, reauthorizes the nation’s national education law and longstanding commitment to equal opportunity for all students.
