Trump's campaign's proposed elimination of the Department of Education seeks to shift control of schools from the federal level to the states, marking a significant policy change.
In his campaign, Trump emphasized the need for 'patriotism' to be central in education, alongside prayer in schools and restrictions against critical race theory and gender ideology.
The proposal to remove diversity initiatives and specific curriculum content is framed around empowering parental rights but is critiqued for possibly leading to educational censorship.
Critics argue Trump's education reforms could erode academic freedom by restricting discussion on important social issues, aligning with broader Republican efforts in various states.
