9. News4Teachers.com - "The Leave No Teacher Behind Act"

"The Leave No Teacher Behind Act" is this week's very interesting featured article. Written by Washington Post columnist Richard Cohen, the article claims that "Countless studies show that it is not the best and the brightest of college graduates who go into teaching. Common sense tells you the same thing. A field where the average salary is around $41,000 a year -- and many are a lot lower -- is not going to recruit the ``best'' people."
