While a modern sophisticated society requires intelligent, moral, and open-minded people to function, the USA is sadly lacking in people possessing those qualities. In fact, our Department of Education has led us to a black hole of despair where we doubt reality and actively deny God. We have a Department of Education that has not only failed in its mission, but it has also perverted education and turned the USA into the USSA.
A minimum of math and English knowledge should be the basic goal of a secondary education and those unable to function as adults in a modern world should be made to continue in school until they are competent (unless, of course, they are mentally retarded).
As a CPS Worker, I saw how Headstart was nothing more or less than a government babysitter assigned to find and change every unusual child or family that did not fit the mold.
David, you made the case. Education is clearly as reserved power. If the existence of the Department of education is challenged in court, it has to be declared unconstitutional. DOGE needs to get on that. Test scores are dismal year after year. States like California will continue failed policies like "whole language," instead of phonics, with or without the DOE. Might as well save a big chunk of money.

I wrote a short essay last year on higher ed. You might or might not like it. David

Another question is why do parents of school aged children support a teachers union that puts the wants of teachers over that of the students?
Because Jimmy Carter owed the teachers' unions a favor.
To brainwash the sheep with the heliocentric deception!
Absolutely!
