"In 2001 Pres. Bush signed into law the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLBA), parts of which were aimed at improving educational services and outcomes for low-income students. It has been said that NCLBA might soon replace Head Start, a program created by the Johnson administration in the 1960s that was also designed to improve educational provision and outcomes for impoverished youth."
