What goobledy-gook. Her mission is to help the states educate children. That is the general framework. How she does it is up to President Trump and her.

Exactly right. I just heard Illinois Senator Tammy Duckworth (D.) talk about how DeVos' appointment was an attack on the "equitable, public education of all America's school kids."

Equitable public education?

I get it: EVERYONE GETS THE SAME HORSESHIT QUALITY EDUCATION!

That's what the Democrats really want: to dumb all the kids down. Make them good little democrat/socialist/mind-numbed skulls full of mush robots.

NO! HELL NO!!! "Public" education is a JOKE and it needs to be burned to the ground.

The past-President of the AFT famously said "I'll start worrying about the children when they start paying dues."

“Unfortunately, it’s clear that Betsy DeVos, the nominee for Secretary of the Department of Education, does not value, nor is she motivated to carry out the agency’s mission.”

I guess it depends on your definition of the word MISSION!
