Engage Discusses the Federal Government’s Role in Education with Senate Staffer
As parents are making decisions about their children’s education in the Fall, it is hard to filter through the noise of the news, social media, and personal opinions. Many politicians claim to offer solutions, but those never come to fruition. That leaves us with the question: What is the federal government’s role in education?
In this week’s episode of Engage with Eagle Forum, Glyn McKay and Tabitha Walter join U.S. Senate staffer James Rice in a discussion about that question. James’s boss, Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley, has championed education issues for many years and has fought to keep education issues decided at the local level to best serve our children and communities. He gives us an inside look at what school re-opening policies are being discussed on Capitol Hill.
Last week, we heard from a public school principal and homeschool mom on two different forms of education. They both agreed that education first begins in the home and that parents, not politicians or bureaucrats should be making educational decisions for our children. Join us as we engage on this timely issue.
