The CCD issued its response to the Department of Education's request for advice and recommendations concerning the implementation of programs under Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, recently reauthorized as the Every Student Succeeds Act. The CCD urges the Department to strengthen state accountability systems, establish a stronger definition for the "Students with Disabilities" subgroup, and provide new regulations and guidance concerning Alternate Academic Achievement Standards (AAAS).
