        You can't say this while at the same time cutting funding. I guess you don't think educators pay attention to what you're doing. We may not have your money, but we are clearly better prepared to discuss education.

        Making it easier to discriminate against minorities? Which one is that, reviewing old, outdated regulations that limit opportunities or ensuring fair treatment for all students?

        You are such a lier! You are destroying public schools and empowering charter schools. How is destroying the protective SPED laws creating fair treatment? How is reducing the availability financial aid modernizing the system.

        I'm assuming that "reviewing old, outdated regulations" is code for "I still haven't read / nor do I understand the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act." You're the worst.

        Cool. What are the solutions? Massive cuts to funding? Pretending that kids don't get gunned down in their classrooms? Better emojis? I'd really like to know, because you say you're working on solutions but never give solutions 🧐

        Might you add, “But I will still accept funding from the NRA.” Who put you in charge? Oh yes, THAT buffoon. I am a public school teacher appalled by our Secretary of Education.

        By arming teachers? Opportunities for your cronies to make money? Please, don't pretend to care about the treatment of students. You have been busy removing protections. Student Aid? You are empowering private entities to go after student loans that are crippling Americans.

        you're working to privatize schools and bring white Jesus into the classroom - this life-long public school employee and parent/grandparent/great grandparent will oppose you with EVERYTHING I have!

        I am sorry , but if you don't remove common core from the schools , all over the school districts. Anything you do is useless. All bad things that are happening and will continue to happen. Are been embedded in the education that our kids are receiving, from K to 12.
