US Education Secretary Linda McMahon is working to reduce federal involvement in schools and give more discretion to states. Speaking at Yale University, McMahon defended the Trump administration's moves to reshape the Department of Education. The federal government will continue to provide education funding but will direct more of it through block grant programs that empower states. McMahon's approach aims to help school leaders identify promising programs that can be replicated nationwide. She prioritizes promoting literacy, school choice programs, and career and technical education. McMahon's visit was part of a speaker series at Yale, where she also discussed grade inflation and her 'History Rocks!' program.
