    Thanks for the opportunity to meet so many impressive students, @usambnl! Very interesting to see firsthand how the Netherlands empowers families and helps students succeed. #RethinkSchoolhttps://twitter.com/usambnl/status/1006458076080365568 …

        Um, hold on-you are traveling on my dime to schools outside of the country? Kindly do your homework, Madame Secretary, NL schools are great but uber different from US education. I am astonished and frankly appalled by your ignorance.

        What was it like to actually be inside a classroom instead of being yelled at in a parking lot?

        But you still refuse to come to a US Public School. You are a fraud.

        What have you done for OUR schools since you were appointed? I would love an honest answer.

        It IS fascinating to see what schools with relatively low poverty and student with access to strong social safety nets can do. How does your administration plan on dealing with these problems?

        And how does this help you “govern” the US schools? Nice trip in the back of taxpayers #justastockgovermentparasite

        You've seen more of their public schools than those in the US. How about you pay us the equivalent of their salaries?

        Get out of our education system. You have no experience. You have no qualifications. You are only there to gut our schools and make sure your Conservative politician friends have poorly-educated constituents who won't know any better than to vote for them. #Resistance

        The Netherlands also has universal healthcare and spends a lot more on school than we do. But you conveniently skip over that part...
