[ ] fewer standardized tests in schools — No. NCLB increased testing requirements (annual tests in grades 3–8 and once in high school).

[x] higher performance goals for students and schools — Yes. NCLB set rising Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) targets aiming for increased proficiency.

[x] improvement plans for underperforming schools — Yes. Schools that failed to make AYP had to implement improvement, corrective action, and restructuring plans.

[x] higher standards for teachers — Yes. NCLB required teachers to be “highly qualified” (state certification, bachelor’s degree, subject-matter competence).
