Elon Musk backs Trump’s plan to close the Department of Education.

[Wargames]

What will that mean for Brown Vs Board?

With no federal government, public schools will likely see less funding and charter schools will have no one to monitor them. If the state board of Ed looks the other way, well those charter schools will be white only and teaching kids who knows what almost immediately.

 

[O.T.I.S.]

and college is leaving tons of kids with huge loan balances and degrees that don't pay off

Thank Goodness Biden hit us with a loan forgiveness program .

Yall got 2 months to take advantage

Your Student Loan Payments May Go Up In 2025 As Loan Forgiveness Paths Narrow

As Donald Trump prepares to return to the White House and several Biden student loan forgiveness plans are at risk, many borrowers will also see higher payments in 2025.

If you have kids and you don’t live in a relatively wealthy state that’s able to maintain current funding or even exceed it for schools…

Better start looking at private schools

Respectfully that seems like the reasonable solution. However, with no DEI private schools can be extremely picky on who they let in and obviously alumni and high net worth parents will get first dibs. Voucher programs for low income students will eventually be thrown out.

I can give two good reasons why this would be a dumb idea

1. People with learning Disabilities would have a harder time seeking quality education if the DOE is shut down.
2. Title 1 schools would not be able to receiving any proper funding, which means they would have to close down. Thousands of kids from low-income areas would be out of a education.

Now maybe a revamped would be better, seeks areas where the DOE can be improved.

What this mean for my student loan ?

They will probably sell them to a private entity who will adjust the rates to get more money out of you. Sorry to rain on your parade breh. Federal loans have the advantage of having a fixed rate.

 

[Sir Richard Spirit]

your kid will mostly come out a full blown anti black c00n who believes his ancestors decided to willingly be enslaved

no offense, but that is the end game

Why? 99% of schools are a mixture of black and hispanics?

You think the current charter schools, private, religious schools in black neighborhoods are full of white people?

Just say you scared breh. Leave it at that. I live in a republican super majority state. You couldn’t pay me to put my kids into the schools my nieces go to. You couldn’t pay me to put my son into the schools my little cousin goes to.


The picture of doom you’ve been painting is a reflection of you having no life experience.

ehh. who actually thinks the Department of Education is doing a good job?

The federal government isn't the problem. Its the states. I can agree standardize testing is a problem but gutting an entire federal department without looking for an alternative solution is terrible.

The troglodyte and his subtle stanning for tRump The fact that y’all let this inbred run rampant without consequences for over a decade kills me. Dude should have been banned since his whataboutism rhetoric for Trayvon Martin and disgusting comments about dark skin Indians.

I think this is the most logical explanation thanks. Dudes are talking like the US Education System isn't ass compared tot he world, but shutting down and moving to the states doesn't really address the problem. The GOP is using Govt Bloat/Inefficiency as an out for what they really want to do so It becomes an easier "sell".

Yep.

We have charter schools popping up all over the state that can pull kids from other schools districts attendance zones.

They are mostly White and many use some draconian criteria to cherry pick the students they want. Minority students, special education students, and behaviorally challenged students need not apply for the most part.

The few minority students they decide to take usually are exceptional academically or athletically or both and cause no behavioral issues (the tokens).

Cacs basically have a modern day version of segregated schools all over again.

 

[OperationNumbNutts]

They use property taxes to fund the schools but there are so many renters that have delinquent landlords the schools don't get enough funding...... rural Ohio schools about to be fcked

That's a damn good perspective. That is a factor I haven't heard discussed.

 

[Gritsngravy]

The country must really be broke

I wonder how the states going to handle it cause they already ain’t got no money as it is right now

 

[Hater Eraser]

Title 1 which supports poor rural and inner city schools is gonna get cut. So are free lunch programs.

And these are the same people who complain there aren't enough kids...
