Sec. 3401. Congressional findings

-STATUTE-

The Congress finds that -

(1) education is fundamental to the development of individual

citizens and the progress of the Nation;

(2) there is a continuing need to ensure equal access for all

Americans to educational opportunities of a high quality, and

such educational opportunities should not be denied because of

race, creed, color, national origin, or sex;

(3) parents have the primary responsibility for the education

of their children, and States, localities, and private

institutions have the primary responsibility for supporting that

parental role;

(4) in our Federal system, the primary public responsibility

for education is reserved respectively to the States and the

local school systems and other instrumentalities of the States;

(5) the American people benefit from a diversity of educational

settings, including public and private schools, libraries,

museums and other institutions, the workplace, the community, and

the home;

(6) the importance of education is increasing as new

technologies and alternative approaches to traditional education

are considered, as society becomes more complex, and as equal

opportunities in education and employment are promoted;

(7) there is a need for improvement in the management and

coordination of Federal education programs to support more

effectively State, local, and private institutions, students, and

parents in carrying out their educational responsibilities;

(8) the dispersion of education programs across a large number

of Federal agencies has led to fragmented, duplicative, and often

inconsistent Federal policies relating to education;

(9) Presidential and public consideration of issues relating to

Federal education programs is hindered by the present

organizational position of education programs in the executive

branch of the Government; and

(10) there is no single, full-time, Federal education official

directly accountable to the President, the Congress, and the

people.

Sec. 3402. Congressional declaration of purpose

-STATUTE-

The Congress declares that the establishment of a Department of

Education is in the public interest, will promote the general

welfare of the United States, will help ensure that education

issues receive proper treatment at the Federal level, and will

enable the Federal Government to coordinate its education

activities more effectively. Therefore, the purposes of this

chapter are -

equal educational opportunity for every individual;

(2) to supplement and complement the efforts of States, the

local school systems and other instrumentalities of the States,

the private sector, public and private educational institutions,

public and private nonprofit educational research institutions,

community-based organizations, parents, and students to improve

the quality of education;

(3) to encourage the increased involvement of the public,

parents, and students in Federal education programs;

(4) to promote improvements in the quality and usefulness of

education through federally supported research, evaluation, and

sharing of information;

(5) to improve the coordination of Federal education programs;

(6) to improve the management and efficiency of Federal

education activities, especially with respect to the process,

procedures, and administrative structures for the dispersal of

Federal funds, as well as the reduction of unnecessary and

duplicative burdens and constraints, including unnecessary

paperwork, on the recipients of Federal funds; and

(7) to increase the accountability of Federal education

programs to the President, the Congress, and the public.

(a) Rights of local governments and educational institutions

It is the intention of the Congress in the establishment of the

public and private educational institutions in the areas of

educational policies and administration of programs and to

strengthen and improve the control of such governments and

institutions over their own educational programs and policies. The

the local school systems and other instrumentalities of the States.

(b) Curriculum, administration, and personnel; library resources

No provision of a program administered by the Secretary or by any

other officer of the Department shall be construed to authorize the

Secretary or any such officer to exercise any direction,

supervision, or control over the curriculum, program of

instruction, administration, or personnel of any educational

institution, school, or school system, over any accrediting agency

or association, or over the selection or content of library

resources, textbooks, or other instructional materials by any

educational institution or school system, except to the extent

authorized by law.

The Secretary shall not, during the period within eight months

after May 4, 1980, take any action to withhold, suspend, or

terminate funds under any program transferred by this chapter by

reason of the failure of any State to comply with any applicable

law requiring the administration of such a program through a single

organizational unit.
