• “First, we will respect parents’ right to control their children’s education.
• “Second, we will empower parents and local school boards to hire and reward great principals and teachers and fire those who perform below par.
• “Third, we will ensure our classrooms are focused not on political indoctrination but on teaching the knowledge and skills needed to succeed - reading, writing, math, science, arithmetic, and other beneficial subjects.
• “Fourth, we will prepare students to love their country and not hate it like they’re trained [to do] now.
• “Fifth, we will support bringing back prayer to our schools.
• “Sixth, we will achieve safe, secure, and drug-free schools with immediate expulsion for any student who harms a teacher or another student.
• “Seventh, we will give all parents the right to choose another school for their children: School Choice.
• “Eighth, we will ensure students can access project-based learning experiences to help train them for meaningful work outside the classroom.
• “Ninth, we will strive to give all students access to internships and work experiences that can set them on a path to their first job. They’re going to be very, very successful. I want them to be more successful than Trump; I will [then] be the happiest person in the world.
• “Tenth, another thing I’ll be doing very early in the administration is closing up the Department of Education in Washington, DC, and sending all education back to the states. We’re going to end education coming out of Washington, DC. We’re going to close it up, all those buildings all over the place, and yet, people who, in many cases, hate our children. We’re going to send it all back to the states.
“Thank you very much.”

Literally.
He also has said he will remove the vaccine requirement in schools and also that he will support homeschoolers and allow them to attend extracurriculars, sports and events in public schools which they are currently being denied access to. And then there’s the $10,000 tax cut for homeschooling….. I’m sure there’s more but I’m just so excited that he will be doing all these.
I love all this so much, especially even more so since we're homeschooling for the first time this year.
My mom was a trendsetter. She refused to vaccinate me way back then. She said when she filled out all the paperwork, the school from that point on treated her completely different. Thankful for my moms courage.
This one thing alone, if enacted, would earn Trump a spot on Mount Rushmore.
I can’t wait dude. Like holy shit I never would have imagined this 10 years ago
What I wish for my grandchildren.
Source for this please? EPIC!!!!!
Unfortunately I see numbers six morphing into what we already have now, only worse....
(the kid successfully defending him/herself getting expelled together with their attacker, who now holds a grudge and is now no longer restrained by being in a school......)
