Two of the goals were:
- Students were to be tested annually in math and reading.
No Child Left Behind Act requires that school demonstrate that each student is on grade level, in key areas such as math and reading. States must set goals which will demonstrate schools are making "adequate yearly progress" in math and reading.
- Facilities were to be upgraded to meet Federal standards.
School that can not demonstrate this proficiency stand to lose Federal funding.
I hope this helped you. :)
Edict of Nantes
It was issued in 1598, by king Henry IV Bourbon of France. It was the second document (after The January Edict of 1561) issued by a French sovereign to provide religious freedom in the country. It was a consequence of the long-lasting religious conflicts in France between Catholics and Huguenots (other name for Calvinists), situated mainly in Southern France. King Henry IV succeeded Henry III Valois and his infamous mother Catherine de Medici. Henry IV was one of the most prominent leaders of the Protestant opposition in France, but had to convert to Catholicism (for the second time in his life) in order to inherit the throne. The Edict of Nantes was one of the first things that he did as a king, and, basically, it allowed for the Protestants across the land to hold on to the cities that they had turned into their strongholds, while Catholics did the same, too. This was a compromise and angered many, Catholics because they could not get rid of the "heresy" among their lands, and Protestants because they could not succeed in reforming France once and for all.
Loyalists were American colonists who stayed loyal to the Crown during the American Revolutionary War, often called Tories, Royalists, or King's Men at the time. They were opposed by the "Patriots", who supported the revolution, and called them "persons inimical to the liberties of America".

Highways made getting to suburbs a lot easier and a lot safer. Suburbs were also a lot safer in general than larger cites
