RealClearEd Examines DeVos’ Reaction to States ESSA Plan
August 11, 2017
RealClearEducation examined how U.S. Sec. of Education Betsy DeVos is “encouraged” to see states expand school choice under ESSA. The piece identifies local efforts in Arizona, Colorado, and Florida. In a statement to RealClearEducation, DeVos was pleased “to see so many states pass pro-student and pro-parent legislation that expands the educational opportunities available to children and their families,” and she has “always said that parents and educators at the grassroots level know best what their students need.”
