Trump cannot dismantle the Department of Education. We will use every legal tool to ensure that the rights of students, teachers, and families are fully protected.

To the Trump-Vance administration: we will see you in court.

As a DoDEA parent and teacher of former DoDEA students, I find this activism heartening and entirely in line with what I know of (most of) DoDEA's student body.

Growing up in a military family taught me the importance of serving our country. But right now, Donald Trump and Elon Musk are attacking our veterans and the services they rely on. Today I’m standing in solidarity with those participating in the veterans march. We will not be silent.
