The claim made by Mick Mulvaney that there is "no demonstrable evidence [that various education programs] they're actually doing that" flies in the face of the facts as I pointed out in yesterday's blog. Mulvaney's claim that there is absolutely NO evidence ought to give anyone in the education community pause.
Mulvaney isn't saying there is a slight or small degree of evidence, he's saying there is none! Come on, zero evidence of a program, any program, helping students? To make such an outlandish statement is not only false but it also flies in the face of logic that a multimillion dollar education is doing nothing!!
I'd have some respect for the man and his position if he could articulate areas of growth or a lack of growth and what could be done to improve these particulars portions of the education journey. That simply wasn't the case. I'm also left with wondering if he bothered to work with those in the Department of Education who could have provided him with some guidance on the matter. I have serious reservations if that took place.
