Text (slide 2):

Fulfilling Education Reform's Promise to Our Children

"This is education's moment. For the first time in years, our two major parties are in agreement on education. For these critical tasks, America's children depend on us. We must not thrust that burden onto our posterity. It is ours to bear."

• The academic achievement gap must be closed.
• All children in America must have the chance to learn and succeed.
• No child should be left behind.
