She didn’t know about a key federal law that protects students with disabilities. She tried to argue that guns may be acceptable in schools, saying a school out West, for example, might need to protect against grizzly bears. She confused two different ways to measure student achievement — by proficiency or by growth — even though they’re hot topics of debate in education circles. And she refused to commit to enforcing federal regulations meant to protect student borrowers from programs that leave them buried in debt with few employable skills. “She seemed to know very little about public education,” said Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.), who was a member of the committee that questioned DeVos. “And, of course, her office is one where someone should know an incredible amount about public education.” https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/betsy-devos-most-hated-secretary_us_59ee3d3be4b003385ac13c9b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
