State Superintendent Ryan Walters issued a memo on Thursday addressing the dismantling of the U.S. Department of Education proposed by President-elect Donald Trump.
In the memo, Walters outlines five areas that he says would restore authority to the states if the U.S. Department of Education is eliminated: Championing parents’ rights, ending social indoctrination in classrooms, protecting patriotism in curriculum, stopping illegal immigration’s impact on schools, and blocking foreign influence in our schools.
“I look forward to working hand in hand with the Trump Administration to help dismantle the decades of damage the fed govt has inflicted on public education,” Walters said in an “X” post on Thursday afternoon.
