Good Move. Get rid of Department of Energy Department and health and Human services too. While we are at it dump the EPA.

Problem is that many GOP love Big Government education.....your tax dollars going to private and charter schools

Also the two biggest Globalist Socialist education bills passed in the last two decades were by GOP presidents....Bush 41 with “Goals 2000” and Bush 43 with “No Child Left Behind”

Note that no GOP leader has endorsed Homeschooling....because the GOP does not want to do away with Big Government Education

I do not even hear GOP Media endorse Homeschooling....outside of Christian media and Free Republic....there is little discussion of Homeschooling.

Works for me to get rid of it. We have only seen our children’s education descend into illiteracy since it has come into being.

Doing away with the Education Dept would more than take care of the Sequester $ and still leave people in place to sweep it out and take the trash away. Already suggested it to my Congressman.

In 2010, Barack Obama called for fixing the public education system by giving us the Elementary and Secondary Education Act and “Race to the Top,”

which he said would fix the education system already fixed by the 2001 GW Bush and Ted Kennedy legislation called “No Child Left Behind,”

which was supposed to fix a system supposedly already fixed by a 1994 piece of federal legislation called “Goals 2000,”

which was supposed to fix a system already fixed by “America 2000,”

which was a 1991 response during the Bush administration to a 1983 federal report on education called “A Nation at Risk,

which was published a full four years after Jimmy Carter first fixed the nation’s public school system by establishing a cabinet-level Department of Education in 1979.
