Regulatory
The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) was passed by Congress in 2015. It largely replaced the No Child Left Behind Acti of 2001 (NCLB) as the nation’s preeminent federal education law.
ESSA requires extensive federal and state policymaking to implement. This page is your resource for information on the latest federal and state regulations.
