Every Student Succeeds Acts Family Resources

The Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) was first passed in 1965 by President Lyndon Baines Johnson. In December 2015, the U.S. Congress passed the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), a new law to replace the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB). President Obama subsequently signed ESSA into law on December 10, 2015.

National PTA, our constituent associations, and advocates across the country will seek to support and empower all families to be active participants in the state and local implementation of ESSA to ensure equity and opportunity for all students.

Delaware PTA sits on the State’s ESSA committee.  The following members serve on this committee:

New Castle County: Sarah Bucic 
Kent County: Johnathan Parker 
Sussex County: Jennifer Scott
