I don’t know if that’s even true, much less whether or how the Department of Education has influenced it or not. I have had to pick up my nonviolent kid more than once.

If your child has a fever, yes, you are expected to get your child.
But if a child throws his desk at his teacher, no, the school is not allowed to call you.

No consequences are allowed when a child is expressing his “behavioral disability”.

All public schools have been mandated to accept this lunacy.

By whom??
And for what purpose??


Special Education Laws and parents willing to sue the district.


Bingo! They are a powerful lobby. School systems are terrified of the suits.

Out of control student? The teacher is expect to remove the rest of the class because you cannot "exclude" the troublemaker.

I taught Title I a decade before the Department of Education was formed by Jimmy Carter.

The public law regarding Special Education was put into effect several years before Department of Education.

The Department of Education has contributed nothing but more bureaucracy.

The funds were there prior to Dept of Ed and they will be there after. The Department of Education does not print the money for the students. But, they are responsible for making a mess of student loans and creating more paperwork for teachers.

Well said. Thank you.

That’s how it used to be before the Dept of Education popped up.


Which medical facilities are those? Who funds them? Who staffs them?


We used to have special schools (and institutions) for those kids with significant behavioral and emotional needs. Now many of them are sitting in regular classrooms disrupting the learning process for others.

Yes. So are you proposing that we reopen those? And if so, who will fund them and staff them?


School systems can use the monies they have to open and operate them and pay teachers more to work in them..

Yes. Defund the unions, and fund separate facilities for violent kids.


Or kick the S out of your kids a couple of times and let them know their crap is unacceptable.

Military school will teach your kid how to be a better criminal. Ask me how I know.

School system funds are being cut everywhere and you all seem to support nuking the Department of Education which also provides funds to school systems. Where is this money coming from?


I would much rather have state taxes and local property taxes fund it than everything going to DC and getting lost in the shuffle of big federal departments.

So you support zero federal funding and no federal department for oversight? OK.


News Flash:
1. Student scores have consistently tanked since Jimmy Carter signed off on the creation of the Department of Education.
2. Classroom violence has become out-of-control since the creation of the Department of Education.

We, the American taxpayers DEMAND that VIOLENT kids are REMOVED from our classrooms. Desks are NOT for throwing. Innocent students and teachers are getting assaulted with zero consequences for the perpetrators.

“Federal funding and oversight” has been a complete disaster for American students and their teachers.

Children can’t learn when they’re in a constant state of fear of assault.

No one has said how eliminating the department will improve these issues. And the federal government had oversight over education via the Department of Health,
Education & Welfare for decades before Congress passed a bill that Carter signed to separate it out. You all just love tearing everything down but that doesn’t solve anything.
