President Trump has submitted his promise to do what he can to dismantle the Department of Education. On Thursday, he issued an executive order to “promote the closure of the Ministry of Education and take all necessary steps to return the powers over education to the state.”
Unless Congress brings a similar lawsuit, the lawsuit is likely to violate the Constitution unless Congress brings a similar lawsuit. A lawsuit before the US Supreme Court is likely to arise.
State legislators need to decide which funds and programs they want to continue. When President Trump signed the order, Gov. Greg Abbott and Lt. Col. Dan Patrick attended the ceremony.
If successful, NBC 5 looked into what the Department of Education would do. It is unclear whether the wide range of programs managed by Washington, DC will move to Texas educational institutions. A tea spokesperson tells NBC 5 that it is ready to take on the role.
“This executive order will bring education management back to the state. The TEA is ready to implement changes to address Texas students, school systems and taxpayers appropriately,” said Jake Koversky, a Texas Educational Institution.
Texas has built the program
The majority of the Department of Education is the majority of Title I, a program attributed to the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, passed in 1965 under President Lyndon B. Johnson as part of his “Poverty War.” President George W. Bush later added testing and accountability requirements under the No Child Reftect Behind Act. Hundreds of Texas schools and countries have taken billions of institutions in federal funding with more stringent surveillance over student performance.
According to the tea documents, more than 220 schools in Dallas ISD, more than 120 schools in Fort Worth ISD, 12 schools in Frisco ISD, and 25 schools in Louisville ISD are funding to focus on improving outcomes for low-income students, English learners and students with special needs. Dozens of districts in northern Texas have Title I schools.
“We can really see what’s going on with every child in this country. It’s kind of a way to see and know if they’re serving every child that’s showing up in public schools,” said Anne Wids of the George W. Bush Presidential Center.
For Wicks, the statewide testing requirements and accountability system are key metrics to ensure students learn what they prepare for their real world and for future work. It is unclear who will control the money and those requirements after Trump’s executive order.
“There are a lot of factors in our system. How do you change such a big change? It’s like TBD about how this plays over time,” Wicks said.
“It was Texas’ idea that really came to be embodied in federal law,” said Jonathan Feinstein, director of the Texas Trust.
He told NBC 5 that it is an important monitoring tool for Texas public school districts and that it is unclear whether states will maintain the same standards and that there is no standard left for NBC 5.
“Before there were no remaining children, less than half of the state needed a standardized test annually,” Feinstein said.
Other aspects of K-12 education
The Ministry of Education is also investigating complaints from parents who believe their children are being treated unfairly or illegally. We also implement the Disability Education Act to ensure that special needs students receive the services they need.
According to the University of Kansas, more than 8 million students with disabilities nationwide were not receiving the necessary educational services prior to the Disabled Education Act.
Ed Trust’s Feinstein worries that without the Department of Education’s oversight, students could be allowed to run through the cracks.
“We risk rolling back essential protections for students with disabilities,” Feinstein told NBC 5.
Department of Education staff will help families navigate FAFSA and Pell Grant documents for higher education. These programs are funded by the same department.
The department also houses researchers identifying the best educational practices. Manage the “National Report Card” (National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP)). Texas is usually ranked near the bottom on the NAEP score.
He is the weight of a former Secretary of Education
Margaret Spelling, former education secretary under President Bush, wrote on NBC 5: It’s a welcome commitment, but taxpayers should also know that recent layoffs in the department follow that commitment. ”
The Education Secretary says the goal is to move programs but maintain services
In an interview with Fox News, Education Secretary Linda McMahon said the early idea was for the state to block federal money grants. That means that states have more flexibility in deciding which standards to maintain or eliminate. She acknowledged that the administration must “work with Congress” to legally place all of this.
Spelling, the education secretary under President Bush, praised McMahon.
“Hard work begins to determine how it will help students in the Congress, the Trump administration and families. Secretary McMahon is a skilled business leader with government and education experience at the federal, state and local levels, and will be a good fit to play a leading role in this process,” Spelling wrote.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Thursday to close the Department of Education.
