Well at least the people will only be able too blame their State after which they'll have too blame themselves, the buck stops there. That way it's "choose" your constituents wisely, it comes right back to the people the way it ways meant to be.
The closer the decisions get to the source of the education the easier it is for parents to influence the curriculum. Also, this may be a big enough carrot to draw many good people into state and municipal politics.
I know the SCOTUS decision give president extraordinary king like powers, but can he just wipe out an entire department with the stroke of a pin, or would congress need to be involved?
That would be great. The man behind me at the supermarket had a big red “Trump’s my President” sweatshirt on today. I live in Los Angeles so you never see this. I am worried about the schools though. They could use money with no strings on more of their weird crap.
I can't remember where I heard it, but maybe a month ago, there was a statistic about bloat in education. Roughly since 2000, there has been a 5% increase in student population, which Is basically flat when you consider the gain in overall population. The increase in the number of teachers is 10%. And that kind of makes sense given many districts enacted smaller classroom sizes. (Does this mean 'better'? That is up for debate, but what I was considering was the explanation for the gains.) But when you look at the increase in administrative staff, the increase is 40%.
There is going to be a lot of howling, but what I would like to see is a chart of student performance year by year from the time the Department of Education was introduced of student performance - meaning the percentage of kids at grade level - and the percentage of non-teaching staff. Because I will bet there is a statistical correlation between the increase in bloat with the decrease in student performance - and this doesn't even take into account grade inflation. I want to see them try to defend a poor record. It should probably go back 10-20 years prior to that as well.
Schools will be structured the same--for now, anyway. He's doing away with the federal DOE, which uses billions to promote DEI and... I'm sure it has other "functions."
How will this affect special education funding? We can say "oh the states will handle it" but I can't imagine . Mississippi giving a shit about special Ed student.
Using AI I've created some talking points to defend this to people whove been conditioned to think the DoE was a good thing.
Creating an argument on this topic involves gathering data from credible sources to support each point. Below is an example of a structured argument with citations from reputable sources that would need to be researched and verified:
Argument: Since the Establishment of the U.S. Department of Education, Educational Standards Have Declined, and Metrics are Potentially Inflated
Decline in Standardized Test Scores: The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), often called the "Nation's Report Card," shows concerning trends. For example, scores in reading and math for 17-year-olds have remained relatively flat since the 1970s, despite increased spending and resources dedicated to education. NAEP's 2020 report showed that only 37% of 12th graders performed at or above the "proficient" level in reading, a minimal change since the Department of Education's founding (National Center for Education Statistics, 2020).

International Comparison of U.S. Educational Standing: U.S. students’ performance on international assessments, such as the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA), shows a decline or stagnation compared to other developed countries. In the 2018 PISA results, American students ranked 13th in reading, 18th in science, and 37th in mathematics. This has placed the U.S. consistently below other OECD nations despite increased education funding (OECD, 2018).

Erosion of Graduation Standards and Requirements: Over recent decades, high school graduation rates have increased significantly, with rates reaching over 85% in 2019 (NCES, 2019). However, this increase has been accompanied by a relaxation in graduation requirements. For example, some states have lowered passing thresholds on standardized tests or removed them altogether, making it easier to graduate without mastery of core subjects (Greene, J., & Winters, M. (2005). Public High School Graduation and College-Readiness Rates: 1991-2002).

Grade Inflation in High Schools and Colleges: Data from studies conducted by the College Board and others indicate significant grade inflation. High school GPAs have steadily risen over the past 20 years, while SAT scores have not increased proportionally, suggesting that grades may not accurately reflect student learning or ability (College Board, 2017).
Source: College Board. (2017). Trends in Grade Inflation. Retrieved from CollegeBoard.org
High College Remediation Rates: Despite high school graduation rates improving, college remediation rates remain substantial. Approximately 40% of college freshmen are required to take remedial courses to catch up to college-level standards, suggesting that many high school graduates are unprepared despite having met graduation requirements (Complete College America, 2016).

Increased Spending with Limited Improvement: The Department of Education's budget has grown significantly since its inception, with over $70 billion allocated in 2020 alone. Yet, despite this increase in funding, the NAEP scores and international assessments indicate stagnation rather than progress, raising questions about the effectiveness of this spending (Congressional Budget Office, 2020).

Conclusion: While certain indicators, such as high school graduation rates, have improved since the Department of Education's founding, deeper analysis reveals stagnant test scores, high college remediation rates, and rising grade inflation. Combined, these issues suggest that educational standards may indeed have declined or remained stagnant and that the metrics may sometimes be adjusted or “fudged” to show improvement. More research and policy adjustments are needed to ensure that increased funding translates into genuine improvement in educational outcomes.
Each of these points is based on widely discussed issues in educational research and public policy. The actual sources should be consulted for accuracy and specific data points if you decide to formalize this argument.
The Feds won’t be brainwashing our children anymore, only the states. Choose your state wisely.
Amen.
Well at least the people will only be able too blame their State after which they'll have too blame themselves, the buck stops there. That way it's "choose" your constituents wisely, it comes right back to the people the way it ways meant to be.

At least they got a choice.
Red states will stay red over time. Blue states will fade and become contaminated with Christian values.
Will be really nice.
Contaminated might be the wrong word
Lol to them Christian values are a fatal disease
They can’t brainwash you as effectively if you sleep through class!
Oh NOES! First abortion back to the states and now education, don't look children! Great plan. Some money back to the states one would presume?
Yes. I would assume.
I daresay it will be with checks and balances that enable rogue Marxist school boards to be dealt with at local level by local people 👍
Amen.
Then the question becomes what to do with the libraries. Seems like a lot of them are privately owned, but publicly funded?
I know the SCOTUS decision give president extraordinary king like powers, but can he just wipe out an entire department with the stroke of a pin, or would congress need to be involved?
It should never have existed in the first place. Most of these agencies are unconstitutional.
No, that power belongs to Congress. But he has both the house and senate, so there's a really good shot.
Have no idea. Sorry.
Nice, that's how it's supposed to be
Then the experiment can work, you want to indoctrinate the children with all the lbgt garbage and whatnot in your state? Fine, go ahead
Then we put education statistics side by side from states that continue with that BS, and ones that purge it, oughta wake up some retards
Parents that know what's up will at least have the option to move, not the easiest or simplest of solutions, but still an option
When the lunacy is being enforced from the federal level how can you possibly show what works and what doesn't with any clarity?
Yes, exactly.
Holy fook!!!!
I want to see this.
So do my 4 kids!
You have smart kids.
Is this even worse for California?
I know right, although How much worse could it get here ! I’m hoping there is a shift here after DJT gets sworn in !
That would be great. The man behind me at the supermarket had a big red “Trump’s my President” sweatshirt on today. I live in Los Angeles so you never see this. I am worried about the schools though. They could use money with no strings on more of their weird crap.
I can’t believe how bad the schools are , I’m in San Diego but my kids are out of school , thank God !
If the voting machines are out, you will be better.
The beauty of letting it stay in the state's control, is that you have the freedom to live in any state you want. Also, homeschool is a thing.
Condescending
Make our kids smart again. MASA
About time.

Oh you are going through methodically just like the other anon was talking about. I like your thought.
Let's prove that the increase of staffs actually help or just bloat.
Dept of indoctrination iis going away.
Amen.
On the 44th Day of Christmas...
Nice Christmas present.
No more school boards???
Schools will be structured the same--for now, anyway. He's doing away with the federal DOE, which uses billions to promote DEI and... I'm sure it has other "functions."
big mike's school lunches
There will be school boards. It just mean boarded up with plywoods.
School boards won't be protected by feds anymore, and sicking the FBI on parents who complain about schools giving porn to their kids.
HOLY SHIT! THANK YOU TRUMP! NOW DO FED AND IRS NEXT PLEASE!!!!
I think he will.
How will this affect special education funding? We can say "oh the states will handle it" but I can't imagine . Mississippi giving a shit about special Ed student.
Good question. Want to run for an office in your state?
Why would you think that?
Thank Gawd we decided to move from Michigan to Florida instead of NE Tennessee!
Florida is good.
So uh, what happens to the student loans that those departments gave out?
Have no idea.
