IS THE DOE DOA? Many hail the NAEP as a vital program run by the DOE, and indeed, the test is an essential tool. However, what DOE proponents don’t acknowledge is that NAEP has existed since 1969, over a decade before the DOE came into being. The early tests were held under the auspices of the Research Triangle Institute, an independent nonprofit research institute.

The U.S. Department of Education is on the ropes, and it should be ended, not mended.

While the federal government has spent money on education and developed education policies since the 19th century, the U.S. Department of Education didn’t become a stand-alone agency until 1980 when, courtesy of President Jimmy Carter, it split off from the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare.

YUP:

Critical Race Theory is alive and well in our schools. An Education Next survey reveals that 36% of U.S. high schoolers say their teachers either “often” or “almost daily” argue that America is a fundamentally racist nation. Also striking is that 43% of teachers use the term “systemic oppression.”

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Critical Race Theory. Transgenderism. Whether you consider them cults, creeds, political movements, or cultural Marxism, they have been around for some time now, but there is mounting opposition.

Many U.S. Colleges still ooze DEI dogma. For example, the University of Michigan announced in December that it would no longer require diversity statements in faculty hiring and tenure decisions, but its Board of Regents stopped short of cutting DEI spending. One regent voiced concerns about the millions of dollars the public institution is spending to embed DEI into every campus nook and cranny under its DEI 2.0 plan.

STILL MY BEATING HEART: Supreme Court could recognize public schooling as unconstitutional.
