"President Donald Trump’s administration officially got rid of a lax discipline rule Friday(12/21/2018) instated by former President Barack Obama’s administration that wanted to ease racial disparities by discouraging student punishment."

The Education and Justice Departments formally revoked the Obama-era policy, The Associated Press reported Friday.

Thank you for that info. I had a very vague and amorphous memory of Trump’s admin getting rid of it but could not trust that bit of memory.

Bad news about wheel chair, checked and says she’s expected to make a full recover. I certainly don’t wish her ill but she isn’t fiery enough, imho. The Dept of Ed is so foul it needs a Hercules to clean it out.

From your link:

WASHINGTON (AP) — Education Secretary Betsy DeVos is recovering from a broken pelvis and hip socket that she suffered in a recent cycling accident.

DeVos commented on her injuries Thursday while speaking in Washington at an event for young entrepreneurs. It was her first public appearance since the accident earlier this month.

The 61-year-old DeVos is using a wheelchair while her injuries heal and is expected to make a full recovery.

The Education Department announced Jan. 4 that DeVos had undergone surgery to repair a broken bone following a road biking accident. Details about her injuries were not released at the time.
