The deadline for this special section is August 1, 2006. Please e-mail your submission to el@ascd.org with the subject heading "Educators' Voices on NCLB." Be sure to include complete contact information (name, address, phone number, school, position, and e-mail address) in your e-mail.

This space explores issues in public education policy, and it advocates for a commitment to and a re-examination of the democratic purposes of schools. If there is some urgency in the message, it is due to the current reform efforts that are based on a radical re-invention of education, now spearheaded by a psychometric blitzkrieg of "metastasizing testing" aimed at dismantling a public education system that took almost 200 years to build.
