 one of ten public hearings that will be held throughout the country between 
 now and early 2006 to hear from concerned citizens about how the law is 
 impacting their schools and communities. The results of these hearings will 
 be published and distributed to key decision makers at the federal, state, 
 and local levels, and will include suggested changes and improvements to 
 this far-reaching law.  It is critical that policymakers and education 
 leaders hear from the public about the impact of No Child Left Behind. 
 Particularly as schools across the state are labeled as needing 
 improvement, now is the time to make your voice heard. We need to hear your 
 views on issues ranging from teacher quality and standards and 
 accountability to parent and community involvement.  For more information, 
 visit < http://www.sfedfund.org/nclb>, or contact the San Francisco 
 Education Fund at NCLB@sfedfund.org  or (415) 912-2233. Light refreshments, 
 translation services, and childcare will be provided during the event for 
 those in attendance.\n
