Even Charles Hartshorne, whose «metaphysics of love» seeks to portray the salient features of Christian faith,
establishes his conclusions

As documented under Section 1115 of Title I, Part A of the Every Students Succeeds Act (ESSA), a local education agency receiving Title I funds «may use funds received under this part only for programs that provide services to eligible children under subsection (b) identified as having the greatest need for special assistance... Eligible children are children identified by the school as failing, or most at risk of failing, to meet the State's challenging student academic achievement standards on the basis of multiple, educationally related, objective
criteria established by the local educational agency and supplemented by the school, except that children from preschool through grade 2 shall be selected
solely on the basis of such
criteria as teacher judgment, interviews with parents, and developmentally appropriate measures».
Even if Article 9 (3) AC provides parties with a margin of discretion to
establish criteria in national law, this discretion could not be used to exclude all NGOs acting
solely for the purpose of promoting environmental protection (para 75).
