This episode focuses on education in America.  First, it covers the governance of public schools, the functions of the Department of Education, and how the Department of Education reacted to Covid-19.  Second, it discusses the unspent funds that were appropriated to schools to fight Covid-19, the effect of schooling during Covid-19 on students' test scores, students' test scores in general (i.e., pre-Covid test scores compared to those in other nations), violence in America's schools, and school choice.
