January 1, Trump Reveals Who Will Take Over Education Dept’s Duties
Hey there, folks! Big news coming from President Trump that you’ll want to hear about! On Friday, President Trump let everyone know that he’s making some mighty important changes. He’s getting rid of the big Education Department in Washington, D.C., and giving the reins back to people closer to home where it counts.
So here’s the scoop. President Trump signed an order saying the Small Business Administration (that’s the SBA for short) is now going to take care of federal student loans. And guess who’s in charge over there? Kelly Loeffler! She’ll be the one handling all those student loans, which means kids and folks with loans can expect some changes.
And that’s not all! The Health and Human Services folks, led by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., are now in charge of programs for special needs and helping with food in schools. So, they’ll be making sure kids get what they need.
President Trump says it’s a big ol’ pile of loans, like tens of thousands! It’s a tricky task, but he thinks the SBA can handle it just fine. You know why? Because bringing these tasks back to the states means families and local communities can have more say – and that’s something to cheer about!
Now, here’s a fun bit: the SBA is tightening things up and will be getting smaller. They’re cutting back by 43%! That means fewer government workers and more getting things back to how they used to be before all the changes and expansions. Good news if you’re a fan of keeping things lean and mean!
President Trump has been talking about giving control back to the states for a long time, and now it’s happening. Secretary Linda McMahon is working to close down the Education Department, and local folks will get to have a bigger hand in education. Trump thinks this makes a lot of sense and it’ll work really well. What do you think? Is it time for states and families to call the shots on education again? Sounds like something that’s worth chatting about around the dinner table!
Wyatt Matters!
It’s exciting to think about big changes happening in how schools and loans are taken care of in our country. With President Trump’s new plan, the Small Business Administration is going to handle student loans, which used to be the job of the Education Department. This means that Kelly Loeffler will be in charge of making sure these loans are managed well, and since it’s all about bringing control back closer to home, it could mean families and communities have a bigger say in how things are done.
There’s also a shift in focus for programs that help kids, especially those with special needs or who need food assistance at school. Having the Health and Human Services department take charge means Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will ensure these important programs meet kids’ needs. It’s more like the decisions will be made by people who understand what’s happening locally, which might make them work better for everyone involved.
It’s interesting to think about whether having more control at the state level is a good idea. President Trump believes that by doing this, states and families will have more power to make decisions about what’s best for their schools. It’s also noteworthy that the SBA is getting smaller and cutting back on its size, which some people think will help things run smoother. All these changes bring up a lot of questions about the future of education and how kids will be supported, and it’s definitely something that’s worth discussing with friends and family!

It’s time for teachers to be paid more reasonably. They should be paid on merit not just for showing up. The success of a teacher’s pupils should be key. In other countries teachers are regarded as professionals but not in the U.S. They are just people who aren’t smart enough to do something more prestigious. Also there are teachers’s colleges that should be shut down as they are positively pathetic. In the old days, children were kept back if they didn’t have passing grades. Not today, they are just pushed ahead and that is probably why only 40% of the 8th graders are on reading grade level. How can a child do well in high school if they can’t read????? Time to dump the Teachers’ Union in the deep blue sea.

Good points . When I was in grade school many years gone by , our reading groups were divided by how well we read the stronger readers in one group and weaker readers in another . Our reading assignments were also based on our skill level and often a strong reader was assigned to help a weaker reader . This helped those weaker readers become better at reading and made them feel included in class , no stigma attached either .

Back when I was in school, parents could call and speak with people who did something. I’ve watched my God daughter get moved up grade to grade, knowing she never learned anything useful. Then I watched my niece grow up struggling with homework, that took 3-4 hours, every night and weekends also. She was 10 years old! Cutting back on the Dept. Of Education, with new supervision, our Country’s children may finally get the education they need and deserve. Praise God

Anytime people are involved in their betterment, they must be given time to make their concerns known. Many times in teacher board meetings the time allowed for communications is at the end of a meeting after awards and administrated business is given. The parents are allowed about two speakers and time is up. This is unacceptable to me. Parents’ concerns and ideas should be given a better priority than that. I think when you give the state power over
education, superintendents and teachers have the responsibility and accountability over a strong issue to which is to be adhered. Teacher concerns must be openly given a time for hearing. This way it is a better picture of what is happening behind closed doors. Education progress being brought back to the state is the right direction. My concern is that it is monitored intelligently. I am not asking for another big branch of officers.

I think getting rid of the department of education is a very good first step. Following that, eliminating all teachers’ unions would be a giant step forward. Unions tend to protect inept and lazy teachers as well as continually push teachers salaries through the roof. On top of that, a lot of those union dues dollars find their way into democrat coffers which result in the democrats returning the favor by protecting the out-of-wack policies of the unions.

It is past time for a change in the way kids are taught in most of the public schools. I would also like to see more emphasis on academics and less on competitive sports. When kids can’t get textbooks but they build a new football stadium, someone has their priorities mixed up.

Only one problem. The Left
Will find a federal district judge will issue a nationwide in Junction barring the changes that the president wants to make.

I’m in California, almost rock-bottom in school/educational achievement. I’ve expressed to the feds that there need to be some non-negotiables when states are in charge: prioritize actual education such as reading, writing, grammar, math. NO indoctrination! Feds must demand that history and science (including biological realities that there are two genders, not 20) are taught with a balanced and accurate perspective and in history, that includes understanding of society, families, education, and business in those times. NO gender “instruction “ during school days. Parents to be fully informed of curriculum and must choose to opt their child in to anything not demanded by core curriculum. Including library “resources” that seek to sexualize children who are not ready emotionally or intellectually. Again, parents alone are to give or deny consent.

I agree with the states having the power to dictate over education rather than the federal government BUT if a democrat is the governor, education will be in trouble if he/she identifies with the woke mob and education consists of gender identity, transitioning and teaching about the gay agenda rather than what education should be – learning to read, write, to do math, physics, and chemistry, etc. Hopefully our school boards consist of common sense people who will do what is best for the student, many of whom are their own children. We need children who will grow to become productive members of society, using their intelligence to keep America great and powerful and innovative.
