Trump Order Reshapes School Discipline Policy | JQJO

President Trump's new executive order aims to reshape school discipline, reversing Obama- and Biden-era policies focused on reducing racial disparities. The order claims these policies led to underreporting of incidents and racially biased decisions. It directs the education secretary to create new guidance emphasizing local control, while also investigating past federal investigations and funding for programs deemed problematic. This move, part of broader debates around diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), is expected to face legal challenges and pushback.
