Wha What is Ev is Every Student ery Student Succeeds Act (ESSA)? Succeeds Act (ESSA)?

Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), a law that funds elementary and secondary education.

Administration in 1965 as part of the “War on Poverty” agenda.

  • ESEA was reauthorized in 2001 and renamed the No

Child Left Behind Act (NCLB). Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) was enacted on December 10,
