Social media videos have been circulating claiming that President Trump is shortening the school year to six months. However, this claim is completely inaccurate as the president cannot determine the length of the school year, which is determined by individual states. The origin of the rumor remains unclear, but the video has been viewed over 130,000 times. Trump has made significant changes to education policy in the US, including signing an executive order in March to eliminate the Education Department and laying off hundreds of workers in July. These changes come as recent studies indicate a decline in test scores since the pandemic, with 70% of 8th graders below proficient in reading and 72% in math. The Trump administration has also made efforts to shift policy around diversity, equity, inclusion, higher education, and protections for transgender students.
