    Wonderful to have 8th graders from The Potter's House join us at ED during their trip to DC to discuss their dreams for the future and their incredible interest in public service. You make Michigan proud!pic.twitter.com/84LqYkhKLY

        All our public schools in AZ are closed today while our teachers strike, but great work with the weird Christian private school your job has little to do with. It must be fun to be the most obtuse government official of all time.

        How about welcoming public schools? How about visiting low performing, underfunded schools? How about just doing that in your own state? How about you just fucking resign already?

        You should meet the @SPSLearners who come to DC every June. They have dreams for the future and incredible interest in public service as well.

        Why are you advertising visiting with students from an evangelical Christian school? How about focusing on what you can do to help public schools?

        What have you done for their peers in Flint who still have drinking water issues? You’re there for ALL children Betsy. Can children learn without access to safe drinking water in school and at home?

        Was their first request structured literacy so all can read? That would be a great start Bets. In case you haven’t been briefed, our nation is in a full blown literacy crisis. Check the stats. It’s disgraceful to put it lightly. We are failing our kids. FACT.

        I see you are hard at work addressing school safety. Great work. NOT!!! Why don’t you step aside and let a real educator in.

        The Potter's House is a PRIVATE EVANGELICAL school. @BetsyDeVosED, what are you doing promoting this? What happened to separation between church and state?

        Most out here post negative comments without claim backup. Haven't had the job for much more than a year but they want a system fix or truth-just more money where its NOT needed. Same people out here sense she got the job. With no debate, just pandering. Weak

        Not ignorant. Very informed. And your reply makes my point. The problem she faces is 40 years in the making. Not going to be fixed overnight, go to City Hall, see what teachers make for 6 months work at a 6 hour work day + benefits. Now...your wage yearly.
