Washington, DC…Since 1979, the U.S. Department of Education has spent over $3 trillion with virtually nothing to show for it. Despite per-pupil spending having increased by more than 245% over that period, there has been virtually no measurable improvement in student achievement:
Math and reading scores for 13-year-olds are at the lowest level in decades.
Six-in-ten fourth graders and nearly three-quarters of eighth graders are not proficient in math.
Seven-in-ten fourth and eighth graders are not proficient in reading, while 40% of fourth grade students don’t even meet basic reading levels.
Standardized test scores have remained flat for decades.
U.S. students rank 28 out of 37 OECD member countries in math.
President Donald J. Trump and his administration believe we can, and must, be better.
Instead of maintaining the status quo that is failing American students, the Trump Administration’s bold plan will return education where it belongs — with individual states, which are best positioned to administer effective programs and services that benefit their own unique populations and needs.
Instead of a bloated federal system that burdens schools with regulations and paperwork, the Trump Administration believes states should be empowered to expand educational freedom and opportunity for all families.
Why would we keep doing the same thing over and over again and expect a different result?
Insane imbecile.
You need your ass kicked Chump.
Musk tells Tesla employees to “hang on to their stock”…………….
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Is that Ronald Chump.
Yes let’s kick someone’s ass because they are smart enough to know that Trump sold a bunch of morons snake oil. He has hired some of the least qualified people to run our government and he is letting Musk run rampant. This isn’t lowering prices. 401Ks are shrinking . He doesn’t care about the middle and lower class. Wake up he is a huge douch bag and if you are down with what he is doing it makes you a huge douch bag as well

Trump’s a Russian asset. He is helping Putin the War Criminal. Republicans were for freedom in the past. What happened ?
Too bad the people who can see straight through him can’t sign an executive order removing this imposter from the office of president of what was an already great America before he destroyed it.
Republicans. Looks like grandma and grandpa are coming home. From their care home. Billionaires need to extend their TAX BREAK. SORRY

See mommy , I did a potty…see !
At least Trump can sign his name not like biden with auto-sign. Hahahahahaha loser
More traitor plays by the don-
J Kushner did not pass security clearances when vetted, yet he was given acess to secrets.
Now mush, no vetting, he wouldn’t pass as Kusher didn’t.
A traitor in our White House.
Musk Is Set to Get Access to Top-Secret U.S. Plan for Potential War With China
Giving Elon Musk access to military secrets is a major expansion of his role as an adviser to President Trump and highlights his conflicts of interest.
His pretending the fifty first state thing. Is a real thing. A incompetent mentally impaired fool …
I thought keeping the Dept of Ed was a good idea till I found out what their goals were for last year.
#1. Try to get reprieve from student loans for graduated college students
#2. Make sure civil rights aren’t violated in Americas schools
These goals sound like Leftist BS
No mention of making education at the local level better!
Fire all of them! And all you cry babies that posted above, do your homework, most of these cuts are getting ready of mucho “dead wood”!
Student loans are collected by the Department of Education, does this get rid of them?
Can kids still get loans for college this year? Or is education only for the rich now?
Everything is ONLY for the rich now – rich whites!
Now they need to clean up Calaveras area school district over paid lazy and just plain worthless the administration and staff just a joke!
Check into the successes at CHS, if I heard it right, they are 5 teachers short! Subs are trying to cover for some critical science areas, babysitting at best, like I said before, do your homework before you post, just throwing out “ education is for the rich”, you obviously don’t know a thing about what’s going on!
Stop remember where you live the children don’t have buses to go and from school why?Because the teachers and administrators gave themselves a large raise.But go by the school and see what they are driving upscale vehicles and they are the one buying these high dollar houses and I know some have two or more one to rent and the other to live the good life while our children are left to fend like a third world country.Instead of worrying about others stop and take a good look at our community!
To all of the above. Calaveras County education system, no wait, ALL of Calaveras, is even farther down the list now than it has ever been. The list of Counties that receives help for its lower income, special needs, students, that is. All of you hicks that a) have kids and b) voted for trump, are now going to get LESS help from government federal, state, county than EVER. You are going to be left out to hang, directed by the man you voted for, Trump.
Therefore no crying, complaining, NOTHING. You voted for him, now bend over and take it like a man. From both Trump AND Musk.
An uneducated populous is much easier to control.
My other car is a TESLA.
Nice weather this weekend planning on taking out my bike and daisy dukes and peddling around live oak dr. Sniveler
Sniveler with or without your seat on the bike?
Every thing has gone up 245% since 1979. Should we shutdown grocery stores, gas stations, farms, etc?
How are you liking project 2025 so far? 40% of it’s shutting down the government is in force.
The $11 trillion tax cut for the 1% is in the bill just passed. How is this paid for, especially when most all of the billionaires don’t pay taxes?
By you. If you are under $200,000 income your taxes are going up. Over $200,000 they go down.
Sweet all audits of millionaires and higher are ended, the IRS firings did this.
Just try to call the SS office, be ready for a 3+ hour wait if you get thru at all. If you need Medicare help the same.
Bend over maga , you will pay much more to live, taxes, food, everything will be going up thanks to the MAGA billionaires you voted for.
YOU pay the tariffs, don’t think you won’t.
Thanks to the billionaires you voted for, 6 in the don’s cabinet.
The state of California has a $60 billion deficit right at this very moment, the city of Los Angeles has a1 $billion dollar deficit, so who is going to be responsible to fix this? Taxes in California are going up as we speak, my point both of these are run by Libtards, stop electing these fools and elect people that want to save California, not run it into the ground! Second point: For the most part, the people with money in this state are paying the bulk of the taxes, the deadbeat homeless, and illegals pay nothing, billionaires create jobs homeless, illegals, and welfare create nothing!
You forget the bad schools, roads, parks closed with the Republicans.
Billionaires invest abroad, not here.
Gov brown reversed the Republican fiscal mess with a slight tax increase.
Amnesia, what maga does.
Is there any little league practice Saturday in are area? Sniveler
^^You might want to look into an English class in “are” area Anti.
We know its you inbred. Jeezus you are soooooooooo lame.
Thanks cousin
Sniveler will be going to the Veterans Dinner give him a couple stiff drinks and you’ll find him in a back seat of a car taking one for the team…,,,
FACT: The federal DEPT OF EDUCATION-started in 1980 under a Democrat named Jimmy Carter, the money allocated, $10 billion, today, that same Dept headed most recently by Plugs, a democrat, the budget $250+ billion. Need anyone say more?
Go to Wal-Mart the day of pay day, and see, literally hundreds working age men, not to mention the women, not working, tatted up, all carrying the latest cell phones, getting their “supplies” for the month off those of us who work! Tell me if you think the American education is bringing back a good product on our investment! This, is just part of the scam, illegals getting free health care, monies to buy “crap food” at Wally World. If you want to support this system, go ahead, I personally am fed up with it!
Sunday will be a good day to wear my cum stained daisy dukes, Sniveler
Way to much TDS in the above comments! If the Dept. of Education was doing their job our high school graduates would be able to read, write and do simple math. Not to mention some science thrown in too. We spend more than any other country per child for education and we have horrible results. DOGE is in place to curtail the waste and fraud that is plaguing this country.
