abstract
| - The Union of Everett Department of Education, also referred to as ED or the ED for (the) Education Department, is a federal level executive department of the Union of Everett government. The Department of Education is administered by the Union of Everett Secretary of Education. It is by far the smallest federal level executive department, with about 5,300 employees. The agency's official acronym is EDU. It is also often abbreviated informally as DEDU. The primary functions of the Department of Education are to "establish policy for, administer and coordinate most federal assistance to education, collect data on Everetti schools, designate recommended and required federal curriculum and to enforce federal educational laws regarding privacy and civil rights." The Department of Education does not establish schools or colleges. The Department's mission is: to promote student achievement and preparation for global competitiveness by fostering educational excellence and ensuring equal access. The Union of Everett has adopted portions of the United States' Bush administration's No Child Left Behind law and utilized the law to require stiff and higher standards in education and testing to increase the overall efficiency in educating students and raising the percentage of graduates and those who go on to enroll in college. Compared to the United States, the Union of Everett's budget for the Department of Education and education centers among the states is nearly doubled. The result of this in the past decade has seen a significant increase in overall effectiveness of education and a higher national average in IQ, grade scores, graduation rates and college enrollment.
