President Trump is planning to sign an executive order to dismantle the Department of Education (DOE), which he views as a means to shrink the federal government and eliminate policies considered politically charged. However, complete abolition of the DOE requires congressional action. Established through a political agreement in 1976, the DOE has seen no significant evidence of improved student achievement and has instead led to increased bureaucracy and regulations. Critics argue that the agency's funding mechanisms have contributed to rising tuition and inefficiencies at all levels of education.
President Trump's order to dismantle the Department of Education aims to reduce government size and eliminate policies perceived as woke, but it requires congressional support to be fully enacted.
The DOE was established in 1980 following a political deal between Jimmy Carter and the National Education Association, yet its efficacy in boosting student achievement has been widely criticized.
Despite its creation, there is no evidence that the Department of Education has positively impacted student achievement; instead, it has led to increased bureaucratic oversight.
Trump needs bipartisan support to reevaluate the federal role in education and reconsider harmful financial dependencies that have arisen from DOE policies over the years.
