Alabama Department of education's ``failing schools'' list released
Despite the public's heated debate with the Legislature over the Alabama Accountability Act and it's focus on bussing children away from an inferior education, no Marshall or DeKalb County institution was featured on the Alabama Department of Education's ``failing schools'' list released early this morning.
Education Secretary Arne Duncan says an estimated 82 percent of US schools could be labeled as ``failing'' under the nation's No Child Left Behind Act this year.
