How will schooling look once the Department of Education is gone? - A continuation of my previous thread, "Should child labor be an option instead of high school?"

California has very lax homeschooling requirements. Unless they start mandatory globohomo boarding schools with molestation hour every evening, normal Californians will just continue to pull their kids and teach them to read at home.

As anybody with more than a double digit iq and some elementary skills of observation can see, heavy lifting of education in the US has always been handled and continues to be handled overwhelmingly by the states. Everything from elementary to the universities falls under their jurisdiction. I have no clue and you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who could explain why some Federal agency that should be at most be a harmonization and standards body needs a quarter of a trillion dollars.
 
From my (admittedly very limited) experience with US school system... A bunch of bureaucrats will be out of their jobs (which is obviously a good thing), but otherwise nothing happens. Education is still a state/local level thing,

Possible unintended consequence: what will it's effect be on standardized testing? That's one thing the otherwise fed-loving woke "educators" really hate and would love to get rid of.

I would assume that each State makes their own standard, with some being better for employment then others. They may have sublevels, where a diploma from Martin Luther King High is viewed differently then one from Chabad Luvaberg High
 
Let us be honest and say that without having parents involved in schooling, nothing is going to change. There are absolute shit schools and even dire poverty, but if the parents actually care, things can at least point in the right direction. Something like this should be a call to action in the truest sense because the commonality with all piss poor schools is that the parents aren't involved.
