NCLB: Signing Ceremony Kids - Where Are They Now?

image from georgemiller.house.govI wonder what's happened to the kids who were onstage with Bush, Miller, Boehner, etc. that day ten years ago.

Who are they, what was their experience like, how did they experience school before and after NCLB was signed into law?  Far as I know no one's ever tracked these kids down.   Maybe someone's doing that in honor of the NCLB anniversary.  

What I remember best about that time is that the ink was hardly dry before Democrats started complaining about the Bush funding levels -- an understandable but disappointing flip-flop that didn't really do much good in the 2004 campaign and heralded a regressive period in Democratic education politics.
