Home Common Logon Table of Contents Students ... Student Services The paradigm shift, since I took office is that the Department of Education will be primarily a service organization, helping school districts and charter schools achieve more academic success. The Department is also an organization that assures compliance, and we will have to be conscientious about that, but the compliance function will be secondary. The primary function is now: service. If you would like to read about our 8 primary goals, please click here to read my inaugural speech. It is my hope that the Department of Education will be a place of intellectual passion and ferment, processing many ideas, and effectively implementing the best of them.
