According to a story in today’s LA Times,
When pressed by representatives at a House appropriations subcommittee hearing on the budget, Education Secretary Betsy DeVos declined to say if, when or how the federal government would step in to make sure that private schools receiving public dollars would not discriminate against students.
She repeatedly said that decisions would be left to school districts and parents.
She went on to ignore the fact that private schools are exempt from performance accountability standards under the ESSA.
