TEACHER’s Unions
The Department of Education was supposed to be Jimmy Carter’s gift to the teachers union. We don’t need the department of education. We have local school committees and state boards of education so why do we need three layers of educational controls? By the way, what does the Education part of the Health, Education and Welfare actually do? Since we have had this since around Roosevelts’ time what great accomplishments has it achieved?

You are misdirecting your fire. Teachers unions have literally nothing to do with the curriculum. They have no input at all. Zero.
The real culprits are on the school boards. They are the ones who hire the leftist consultants. They are the ones who approve the courses of study.
Incorrect, and glaringly so! State and Federal curriculum and pedagogy designers, usually under the influence of those in university education departments, are the actual culprits. Change your aim, and perhaps something can actually be done about our education crisis.
