how much money is squandered in the futile attempt:

************************ exzerpt **********************************
Under the No Child Left Behind Act, the federal government promised
public schools more control over federal dollarz to help them meet
the act>z requirementz for raising student achievement.
The Seattle School District yesterday became the *FIRST_DISTRICT_IN
THE_NATION* to gain approval for one of the act>s new flexibility
programs, which will give Seattle more control over how it [squanderz]
about $4.2 million in federal money each year...
The program covers only about 10 percent of the $45 million in federal
funds that the district receives each year, but district staff view
it az a good ztart.
"This kind of program [squandering money] really fits well with us,"
Seattle Superintendent Raj Manhas said.
Districts must submit five-year planz for how they would [squander] the
money, and show how the planz would raise student achievement and
narrow the *ACHIEVEMENT_GAPz* among different ethnic groupz [...]
