Susan Gendron, Maine’s education commissioner, is taking part in a 10-member education policy task force to create a plan to guide President-elect Barack Obama’s administration through its first 100 days in office.

The group met Monday night where it discussed expanding broadband, No Child Left Behind, the Family Educational Rights and Policy Act and Medicaid. The group also considered a move away from a “compliance-driven relationship” with the U.S. Department of Education.

“We all acknowledged that NCLB (the No Child Left Behind Act) had been beneficial, but it was now time to focus on how to build on strong standards with a focus on 21st century skills, expanded learning opportunities, and differentiated practice in the classroom to reach every child,” Gendron said in a press release.

The group’s plan will be presented to the new education secretary, who has not been chosen yet.
