Former First Lady Laura Bush In Charleston

  • {Charleston, West Virginia}...Former First Lady Laura Bush spoke at the Clay Center in Charleston Wednesday as part of the annual Education Alliance dinner. Bush, who is an honorary ambassador for the United Nations Literary Decade, lived in the White House for eight years when her husband George W. Bush was president from 2001-2009. President Bush signed the No Child Left Behind Act into law during his presidency. West Virginia officials are currently considering applying for a waiver to avoid some of that law's guidelines.
