TLS as president, one page, 6.75 x 7.75, White House letterhead, May 15, 2002. Letter to Thomas D. Watkins, Jr., superintendent for public instruction in Michigan, in full: "Thank you for the warm welcome during my visit to Vandenberg Elementary School last week. Establishing accountability in our public school system is essential to ensuring that every child in America receives a good education. I appreciate all you are doing to help achieve this goal." In very fine condition. George W. Bush prioritized public education reform during his presidency, most notably through the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. The law aimed to increase accountability in schools by mandating standardized testing and closing achievement gaps, though it faced criticism for its rigid standards.
