In a recent interview, Education Secretary Linda McMahon expressed her concerns regarding the state of public education in America. During her discussion with Fox News host Lara Trump, McMahon emphasized that children should not be "trapped" in schools that are failing to provide a quality education. She highlighted the urgent need for reform in the education system to ensure that all students have access to effective learning environments.
McMahon pointed out that many schools across the nation are struggling, leaving students without the necessary resources and support to thrive academically. She advocated for innovative solutions and increased accountability for schools that consistently underperform. The Secretary also discussed the importance of parental choice in education, suggesting that families should have the option to seek alternatives if their local schools are not meeting their needs.
