In this April 11, 2017 file photo, Education Secretary Betsy DeVos is seen in the State Department
Library of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building on the White House complex in Washington. How to
spot a troubled school and how to help it? What does it mean to be a good student? What should report
cards look like? These are some of the questions states are grappling with as they are working to submit
blueprints of how they will implement the Every Student Succeeds Act, or ESSA, a landmark education law
meant to help struggling schools. The law allows states greater flexibility in dealing with low
performing schools, but the flexibility also comes with the risk or doing too little, too much or too
differently.
