Betsy DeVos: “I think a school is a sacrosanct place for students to be able to learn, and they should be protected there.”

I think the block grant proposal is really sort of transformative in that way because it would allow for all of the uses of those programs.

My focus is and always will be on students and on helping all students get a great education through an equal opportunity.

Reading opens kids' minds and expands their world. Literacy is the foundation of learning and it's the starting point on the pathway to the American dream.

I totally support charter schools and think we need not fewer of them. We need many more of them.
