As President Trump reaches his 100th day in office, a review of the Department of Education (DOGE) reveals several key decisions and budget cuts made during this initial period. Fox News Digital examined the most impactful changes implemented by DOGE under the new administration.
One of the most notable actions was a reduction in funding for various educational programs. These cuts affected areas such as after-school programs, arts education, and initiatives aimed at supporting low-income students. The department argued that these cuts were necessary to streamline operations and prioritize core educational functions.
Another significant move was the revision of certain Obama-era education policies. These revisions focused on areas such as standardized testing, school accountability, and federal oversight of education standards. The department aimed to give states more autonomy in setting their own educational goals and standards.
These early actions by DOGE sparked significant debate among educators, policymakers, and the public. Supporters argued that the changes would lead to greater efficiency and local control, while critics expressed concerns about the potential impact on vulnerable students and the quality of education nationwide. The first 100 days of DOGE under Trump set a clear direction for the department's future initiatives and priorities.
