No Child Needs Design

Eduwonk gets the leaked redesign logo for NCLB and it's not pretty. Art teachers everywhere including the Eponymous Educator's mother will shriek at the sloppy blotches of red trailing downward heavy (did ED forget to take the lead out of the red paint). It's strange that a law billed to help children would suggest, however subliminally, that five years later kids need a ton of work, at least in the art department. I guess all that attention to Math, Reading, and Science has left the ED wanting in artistic skills too.

I know it's a petty post, but it's the weekend. Whimsy and play are allowed. Ugly sloppy logo indeed.
