Getting Rid Of The Department Of Education

[O4L]

We also need to have the class called Life like a meme going around says. Teach kids to make a budget, balance a check book, do basic cooking, cleaning and how to change a car tire. All the things we were taught at school and by our parents. Stuff neither has time to teach anymore. Maybe even how to grow a garden.

And how to safely handle a firearm.

Is it under Fed?
Is it not a problem?
Who gives it Oversight?

Attorneys who file lawsuits against them is the only oversight the have. I'm friends with one of the attorneys who do pro bono work for student athletes and their families against the OSSAA. If you're a FB person and want to know about the OSSAA that you don't often hear about, dig through this FB group he started.

Here's what the OSSAA folks make per year......how often they actually vote in favor of an athlete.......and where the Oklahoma AG had to get involved.....they're there for the $$, nothing more.

I did not know about the Law firm. I am familiar with how they (OSSAA) can keep a kid from playing sports in school transfers, plus a few other scenarios, I also know Public School Officials from a local school, like a principal, coach or superintendent, will not help you resolve any problems with them. They cower right down and tell you there is nothing they can do. I have not seen or heard of one instance where they helped further sports or education.
Another mystery to me is how they take over the High School Gate admissions for High School Playoffs. State Wide.
They operate like a Gestapo or the Mafia in my opinion. They have become a Giant that schools fear.

Time for a David.

We need an Operation Clean Sweep, for Alphabet Federal Agencies. Should be a standard if they have more than Three Letter Acronyms, and they regulate any US Citizen, Stop Funding them.
Well that might be an extreme, but if one Agency is defunded and abolished it will be pretty amazing.
On the backside there compensation packages will probably be as bad as the agency itself, if they are not careful.

Not only the gate admissions for playoffs, they somehow are able to make money off of streaming services for playoffs.

Personal Finance is a required elective class for all students to graduate HS in Oklahoma.

States have done a great job of screwing up public education on their own and don’t need any federal help.

This. Stop taxing for schools and allow parents to pick/pay for the school of their choice.
