Education Department hands off more of its responsibilities to other US agencies

The Education Department shifts management of foreign gift disclosures and six K-12 grant programs to agencies with specialized expertise, aiming to streamline oversight of $514 million in annual funding.

  • Education secretary Linda McMahon said new partnerships with other agencies represent greater efficiency and improvement as they break up the federal education bureaucracy.
  • The agreements transfer several programs, including those supporting low-income students, to agencies like the State Department and HHS.
  • Critics argue the moves create confusion, erode public trust, harm students, and shift work to agencies with no educational expertise.
