Department of Education Cuts Staff By 50 Percent

  1. Facts don't care about your feelings....

    No National Curriculum:
    There is no national curriculum in the United States; education is primarily a state and local responsibility.
    Federal Role:
    The U.S. Department of Education does not set curricular standards for public schools; this is done at the state and local level, according to Ivy Scholars.
    The federal government's role is primarily to provide funding and set some broad guidelines, but the states and local districts have the primary authority over curriculum.

    Additionally the Department of Education is responsible for collecting information about test results from schools across the U.S. The information is used to measure educational performance. Once the Department of Education is eliminated we basically won’t have a unified idea on how our schools are performing.

    Yeah. Exactly. You finally said something 1/2 way intelligent. You make my point perfectly.

    We don't need a giant bureaucratic black hole of tax burning federal dollars in DC employing a bunch dead wood, do nothing liberals that think they know what's good for the rest of the country. Fire em all and dish the savings out to the State and local experts.

  4. Where "parents" are included amongst "local experts."

    Student who says she is illiterate — despite graduating with honors — sues Connecticut school district

    A Connecticut honors student is suing her school district, saying she is illiterate.

    Despite graduating from Hartford Public High School in June with honors and getting a scholarship to the University of Connecticut, Aleysha Ortiz is claiming she cannot read or write.

    The 19-year-old, who spent 12 years in the Hartford public school district, testified at a May city council meeting, explaining her unique situation and how the educational system failed her.

  6. Well now you changed your story... first you said the bad state of education in U.S. is due to the DoE and it needs to be abolished....now you realize the states control full curriculum and standards, it is DoE is deadwood that does nothing...

    What savings....most of the DoE budget is paid out in funding to the states for students with needs and programs the state cannot fund or cover.

    All we ask here is you research before you rant... that is why you are alone out on that limb.

    And before you claim someone else is not saying something intelligent....realize oyu just made a fool of yourself and rather than "Oh you are right, I had it wrong".... you went trump and changed the subject

  9. I think that rule should be removed. That happens all day every day on this subforum. This subforum should be named derogatory insults. That is like Tuxan's specialty and I give it back. I am not sure if Tuxan is even capable of creating a post without a derogatory insult. That is what he does in most post. Being a rat is never a good look.

    If it is too hot in the kitchen, perhaps this subforum isn't a place for you. This isn't a safe space.

    About 90% of the liberal comments to my post are derogatory and I give it back. Should all of the liberals be banned?

    Now, let me get back to my 30,000 bots on bluesky.

    Ocho... I would put you on ignore... but I do like you.

    You are nothing but a grouchy old lib. Now you will deny the lib part... and in your own mind you are 100% convinced that you're not. But you are.

    So just pipe down, go with the flow, and find us some new Melania and/or AOC yoga pics. I doubt you'll find any Melania ones though.... way too much class. And if plastic gives those kind of results... God bless plastic. :p
