DELAWARE- President Donald Trump signed an executive order that begins the dismantling of the Department of Education.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told NBC, March 20, that it would not be completely eliminated, and that "critical functions" would continue. The order is not expected to change student loans and grants.

The former middle school math teacher, Delaware Governor Matt Meyer, released a statement Thursday ridiculing the president for his actions. "Let’s cut the b*******, not education. Schools are already underfunded, teachers underpaid, and students underserved."
