Education Secretary Betsy DeVos and her team have said local districts have the flexibility to arm educators using federal funds. But how many will take advantage of that leeway?

U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos is off to South America this week, where she will be part of the U.S. delegation of the first-ever G-20 meeting of education ministers.

ESSA made some key changes for this group of students, but it's unclear if states are following through with a new transportation requirement.

DeVos said Friday that she has "no intention" of taking any action or position when it comes to whether schools can use federal funds under the Every Student Succeeds Act to purchase firearms for teachers or teachers.

Schools that want to arm teachers will be allowed to use federal funding under the Every Student Succeeds Act to do so, Frank Brogan, the assistant secretary of elementary and secondary education, told the Associated Press.

Democrats think 2018 is their year, and they're using education—and educators—to make their case.

In Alabama, educators, experts, and community members urged the Federal School Safety Commission not to arm teachers.

Democrats told Betsy DeVos that a grant under the Every Student Succeeds Act was passed by Congress to help pay for education technology and efforts to improve school climate, not guns.

U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos squeaked into office by the skin of her teeth about 18 months ago. And now, at least one Republican senator who supported her is taking heat for her vote on the campaign trail.

As a two-time presidential candidate and veteran lawmaker on Capitol Hill, John McCain put school choice at the center of his plans to help disadvantaged students.
