WASHINGTON, DCPresident Bush announced Monday that he'll encourage Congress to back his new education initiative, the Timmy Blanchard Left Behind Act. 'It is my goal to close the achievement gap in our schools with accountability, flexibility, and choice, so that no child is left behindexcept for Timmy Blanchard of Akron, OH,' Bush said at a White House press conference. 'By 2014, I plan to see a significant jump in the math, reading, and science proficiency of 99.9999 percent of America's students. The children, excluding Timmy, are our future.' Bush was inspired to leave Blanchard behind after the child threw up all over the merry-go-round last week.
