The US Dept of Education has very little to do with K-12. It manages college student loans mainly. k-12 is all up to the states. That’s why Trump couldn’t get schools in blue states open, and it’s why Biden loses mask fights with K-12 in red states.
“The US Dept of Education has very little to do with K-12. It manages college student loans mainly.”
I doubt you even believe that, for a minute.
Good point and I absolutely agree.
But....As I said, K-12 is like a big fat pimple. It needs to be squeezed from every side.
I welcome anyone who is willing to squeeze.
Even here on Free Republic few Freepers recognize the following:
1) Fundamentally, K-12 schooling is our nation’s first compulsory-funded and compulsory-use socialist program. Children who attend learn that any government powerful enough to give them tuition-free schooling is also powerful enough to give them **lots** of “free” stuff. By the turn of the last century, Marxism impacted our nation.
2) Government schooling violates every First Amendment. human right: Speech, press, assembly, and free exercise of religion.
3) Secular schools are not religiously neutral. Secularism is a religious worldview with serious and non-neutral cultural, political, and religious consequences.
