Includes Author Dedication; Introduction: The Quiet Part Out Loud; Epilogue; Acknowledgments; Notes and Index. Illustrated with a section of color photographic plates. Signed and inscribed by former Trump Administration Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos with thick black Sharpie/marker at the upper section of the full title page. "In this timely new book, Betsy provides a compelling look at the progress made in education under our administration and offers fresh ideas to put America's children first and prepare them to achieve and live the American Dream. This is a book for every parent, grandparent, and concerned citizen who cares about the futre of America and generations to come." - Mike Pence, 48the vice president of the United States. "No one has a bigger heart for students and has done more to ensure parents matter in ecucation than Betsy DeVos. In Hostages No More, sh lays out the path forward to get our education system on the right track." - Bovernor Kim Reynolds, State of Iowa. Long before Betsy DeVos gained national attention as the secretary of education, I witnessed firsthand how passionate and devoted she was to the fundamental right f every child in America to have the best education possible 'regardless of their zip code." - Kathie Lee Gifford. "A strong America requires every child to get a great education. Too many families are denied that right today. This must change. The prolonged and unnecessary closure of schools during the coronavirus pandemic opened the eyes of parents to this truth. But the story didn't begin there. Horace Mann, the nineteenth-century creator of America's industrial-style public education system, once said: "We who are engaged in the sacred cause of education are entitled to look upon all parents as having given hostages to our cause." Today, it's those who control America's public schools - politicians, bureaucrats, school union bosses, and progressive elites - holding kids hostage to advance their destructive, self-centered causes. They use their power to control what, where, and how America's students learn. From Common Core math to coronavirus school closures to critical race theory, students have been held hostage to the education establishment's preferred ideology and grip on power. From her unparalleled perspective and experience, former U.S. secretary of education Betsy DeVos explains how schooling came to be this way and what parents and students can do to change it. In Hostages No More, DeVos unleashes her candid thoughts about working in the Trump administration, recounts her battles over the decades to put students first, hits back at "woke" curricula in our schools, and provides a guide for parents on how they can help fix our broken education system. And she has stories to tell. DeVos offers blunt insights on the people and politics that stand in the way of fixing our schools. For students, families, and concerned citizens, Hostages No More provides the roadmap for reclaiming education and securing the futures of our kids - and America." - from the inner front jacket flap.
