U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos kicked off her first public speech Wednesday by casting the protestors who sought to block her from visiting a Washington, D.C., middle
school last week as part of a divisive opposition that's resistant to fresh ideas... And DeVos, who didn't face protestors Wednesday, praised magnet
schools, which are public
schools organized
around a particular subject area such as arts or technology, as «the original
school choice option.»
