The future of the US Department of Education

The incoming Trump administration campaigned on promises to fundamentally change the federal government’s role in education. This includes the possibility of eliminating the U.S. Department of Education entirely, or at least substantially reducing its size and responsibilities. This stance is at odds with the approach of former presidents of both parties, which used the department to oversee federal investments in education and steer policy priorities. What does the future of the U.S. Department of Education look like, and how will this affect the regular operations of public schools?
On January 21, join the Brown Center on Education Policy at Brookings for a webinar with former U.S. Secretaries of Education Arne Duncan, John King, and Margaret Spellings to discuss the future of the U.S. Department of Education under the incoming administration.
