Education has become one of the most closely watched political issues in America, with parents, teachers, local school boards, states, and the federal government debating what role each should have in the classroom.
President Donald Trump has called on American educators to have confidence in his administration as he pursues his education agenda. His approach has emphasized issues including parental authority, local control, classroom standards, school choice, and changes to the federal government’s involvement in education.
Supporters believe Trump’s policies could give parents and local communities greater influence over their children’s education. Opponents have raised concerns about what changes in federal education policy could mean for teachers, students, school funding, and public education more broadly.
With educators directly affected by decisions made in Washington, the question is ultimately one of trust.
