wonder what impact a trump presidency will have on public school funding. if we want all students to succeed, we need to make sure all students have those same resources. we want every child, every single child, low income, we don t care where they are, where they live, every child in america to be able to attend the public, private, charter, magnet or religious school that is right for them. choice. reporter: that word choice is the backbone of president-elect trump s k-12 education agenda. in a speech outlining his school choice plan, he said his first budget will turn $20 billion of existing federal dollars into block grants for states with more money going to the ones with school choice programs in place. each state will then decide how to distribute the money which trump said he would like to see go toward financial aid for kids living below the poverty line.
