What does ESSA stand for?

• A. Every Student Succeeds Act
• B. Every Student Social Accountability Act
• C. Education and School Success Act
• D. Every Student Successes Act

Answer: (A)

ESSA stands for Every Student Succeeds Act. This is the federal law enacted in 2015 to reauthorize the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, replacing No Child Left Behind. The name uses “Succeeds” to emphasize the goal that every student should succeed, with states and districts driving standards, assessments, and accountability rather than a single nationwide mandate. The other options change words or spellings that don’t match the official title of the law, so they don’t fit the actual acronym.
