President Trumps new education standards.
“Presidential Education” generally refers to the President’s Education Awards Program (PEAP), a program established in 1983 by the U.S. Department of Education to recognize and honor graduating elementary, middle, and high school students for their academic achievements and hard work. In 2025 President Donald J Trump mandated that the U.S. Department of Education must improve standards for the education of young Americans, we are helping with A Kids Guide to Presidential Education.
Recently, in US history, the standards of education in the United States have fallen behind on the global stage. Often American education ranks at the bottom when it comes to international standards. This must change, as American spends more money on education per student than any country in the world, still yet many children read at a low level, have unacceptable math skills and this must change.
To help kick off the Presidents new education standards here is “A Kids Guide to Presidential Education” to let everyone know change is coming and better things will follow for students, parents, teachers and State organizations that want to help kids learn. American children want to learn, kids to be happy at school and to be First in Education. President Trump and his new Secretary of Education Linda McMahon.
Secretary McMahon stated:
“I am deeply grateful to President Trump for his trust in me to serve in his Cabinet as Secretary of Education. I am prepared to lead the Department in this transformational time and embrace the challenge to improve the education system for the more than 100 million children and college students who deserve better.
“Education is the issue that determines our national success and prepares American workers to win the future. Every decision made at the Department will be driven by a commitment to support meaningful learning and empower our most important stakeholders: students, families, and teachers. The Department will be focused on advancing education freedom, not building up government-run systems. We will empower states and districts to have more say in what is working on the ground for students instead of bureaucratic edicts from Washington, D.C.
“President Trump pledged to make American education the best in the world, return education to the states where it belongs, and free American students from the education bureaucracy through school choice. I intend to make good on that promise.”
