Breakdown of Returning Education to our State's Act:

- The Child Nutrition Program is not paid out by the Department of Education. This is managed by the Department of Agriculture (So it’s not impacted)

- Federal Pell Grant Program, federal Family Education Loan Program, William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program, federal Perkins Loan Programs, all not going anywhere. They're still gonna be alive and well, just moving to the Department of Treasury (This is BIG one)

- All functions, programs and authorities of the Secretary of Education under the Individuals with Disability Education Act shall be transferred to the Department of Health and Human Services.

This is your IEPs, your early intervention, your special education grants, your free special education services. Those all will just be moving to the Department of Health and Human Services (Not financially impacted)

- Each authority and program of the Office of Indian Education of the Department of Education shall be transferred to the Department of Interior.

Those are programs designed for Native Americans specifically in their education (Not financially impacted)

- Title Eight of Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 shall be transferred to the Department of Health and Human Services.

This includes the financial assistant that local education agencies get that lose property tax revenue due to the presence of federally connected students.

So those who live on Indian lands have military family or parents.

Those in federally, low rent housing, those types of situations, this is where all that falls, and it will just be moving to the Department of Health and Human Services. (Not financially impacted)

-The Health Education Assistance Program and the programs under the Education Science Reform Act of 2002 will all also be moving to the Department of Treasury.

(Health Education Assistance Loan program is for healthcare field loans for those that are in the medical field.)

- The Education Science Reform Act of 2002 are programs to that generate and apply education research to improve teaching, learning, and policies nationwide is moving to the Treasury

“All of these things will still be alive and well just moving to a different department”
