Michigan Department of Education reaffirms commitment to public education, opposes federal tax credit program

The Michigan Department of Education (MDE) has reaffirmed its dedication to public education, adopting a 'Students First' approach. The MDE also announced its opposition to a new federal program that would allocate funding to tax credits for K-12 schools, including private institutions, rather than directly supporting students through programs like special education and Career and Technical Education (CTE).
