Is More Discipline the Answer? What Texas House Bill 6 Means for Our Students, And Our Future

https://youtu.be/UfQimZMiydQ

Texas just passed House Bill 6, and on paper, it looks like a crackdown on student “misbehavior.” It gives schools more power to suspend, expel, and isolate students—especially those labeled disruptive.

But here’s the question we’re not asking enough: is more discipline the answer?

Because if discipline were the solution, wouldn’t we have fixed this by now?

What’s In HB 6?

Let’s break it down.

Texas House Bill 6 allows:

  • Unlimited in-school suspensions (ISS) with periodic review
  • Out-of-school suspensions and expulsions for young children, including kindergartners and homeless students
  • Placement in Disciplinary Alternative Education Programs (DAEP) even for virtual learning or off-campus incidents
  • Charter schools to deny enrollment to students with certain criminal records
  • Principals to send students out of class or campus for behavior they view as disruptive—even without a formal investigation

This law reverses protections that were intentionally put in place to support vulnerable kids.

The Argument For It

Supporters say HB 6 gives schools more flexibility. That it protects teachers. That it helps restore order in classrooms that are falling apart post-pandemic.

And I get that. Teachers are burned out. Classrooms are stretched. Some students are acting out because they’re carrying trauma no one has time—or resources—to address.

The impulse to remove “problem students” isn’t random. It comes from real frustration.

But reactionary policy made out of frustration rarely creates meaningful change.

What’s the Harm?

What happens when schools are told: “Here’s more power to punish—but no new resources to support”?

They isolate.

They remove.

They suspend.

Because it’s fast, cheap, and easy.

Let’s be real: most schools aren’t equipped with enough social workers, counselors, or trauma-informed staff. They’re already underfunded. And now, with the U.S. Department of Education being quietly dismantled, things are only going to get harder.

So instead of building up support, we just remove the student and call it a solution.

What Does That Teach Kids?

It teaches them they’re a problem.

That they don’t belong.

That if you mess up, you get pushed out—sometimes permanently.

And from there? It’s a straight line to policing, to criminalization, to being written off completely. We’ve seen it before. We know what the school-to-prison pipeline looks like. And we’re still walking down that road.

The Bigger Truth We Miss

Here’s the deeper truth: every time we remove a student, we teach them how disposable they are.

And that doesn’t just hurt them—it weakens all of us.

Because a kid who believes they’re a problem becomes an adult who struggles to believe in their own worth.

And a society filled with people who were shamed, shunned, and criminalized when they were most vulnerable? That’s not a society that’s going to thrive.

We should be building emotionally healthy, critically thinking human beings. Not pushing them out when they become inconvenient.

So, Is More Discipline the Answer?

If it comes with support, maybe.

But if it’s just more punishment with no healing? No growth? No equity?

Then no, it’s not the answer. It’s just easier.

And when easy policies hurt people, we need to do better.

What You Can Do

  • If you’re in Texas: Ask your district how they’re applying HB 6. Are they capping ISS? Tracking data by race, ability, and housing status? Offering wraparound support?
  • If you’re outside Texas: Stay alert. This kind of legislation travels. Talk to your school board about what’s happening in your community.
  • Advocate: Push for restorative justice programs. Support mental health professionals in schools. Ask better questions. Demand more than discipline.

Because the measure of a school isn’t how fast it can suspend a kid. It’s how far it’ll go to keep them in the room.

What Happens If the Department of Education Disappears? The Quiet Dismantling of Your Rights

https://youtu.be/eBQ-ASeP-Uo

So… the U.S. Department of Education is being dismantled. And before you scroll past thinking this is just another bureaucratic shift or political talking point, let me stop you right there:

This affects your kids. Your students. Your community. You.

Back in March 2025, an executive order was signed to begin “winding down” the Department of Education. Thousands of staff—including people who oversee civil rights, special education, and student loans—have already been laid off. The Supreme Court greenlit these changes. And the plan is to hand federal responsibilities over to the states.

If that gives you pause, it should.

This isn’t about whether you like or dislike the current administration. It’s about what happens when you gut a federal department that exists to protect students—especially the most vulnerable ones.

Let’s talk about what’s at stake.

What the DOE Actually Does

The Department of Education isn’t just the testing police. It’s responsible for:

  • Enforcing federal civil rights protections in schools
  • Distributing funding to support students in low-income communities
  • Upholding legal protections for students with disabilities
  • Ensuring schools comply with anti-discrimination laws

When we cut federal oversight, we cut safety nets. And in a country where access to education already varies wildly based on ZIP code, that’s a dangerous move.

What’s at Risk: A Quick Breakdown

Here are just a few of the programs and protections tied to the DOE:

Title I: This provides federal funding to schools serving low-income communities. It helps cover things like reading specialists, school counselors, after-school programs, and meals. Without it, schools already stretched thin will have even less.

IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act): This ensures that students with disabilities receive free, appropriate public education. Think IEPs, speech therapy, and accommodations that help kids thrive. If states can’t or won’t pick up the slack, these services disappear.

Title IX: This law protects students from sex-based discrimination. It’s what schools use to address things like harassment, unequal athletics, and—depending on the state—protections for trans and nonbinary students.

Take away enforcement, and you take away the consistency. In one state, you’re protected. In another? You’re on your own.

Big Government vs. Small Government: Let’s Get Real

You’ve probably heard the argument: education should be local. That smaller government means more freedom and less bureaucracy.

Sounds good in theory. But let’s be honest—local control without federal oversight has historically meant segregation, inequity, and “you’re on your own if you’re not part of the majority.”

Here’s a more nuanced take:

Small government in education:
✅ Can create space for community-led innovation
❌ Can lead to wildly unequal access and protection

Big government in education:
✅ Creates baseline protections, funding equity, and civil rights enforcement
❌ Can feel impersonal and slow-moving

So instead of debating small vs. big, maybe the better question is:
How do we protect the rights of all students—no matter where they live—while still allowing space for local ideas and cultural responsiveness?

This Is Already Happening

This isn’t theory. The layoffs are real. The restructuring is real. And the services students rely on are disappearing in real time.

Even student loan management is being tossed around like a hot potato—possibly shifting to the Treasury or Small Business Administration. If your email’s been silent, that might be why.

The gutting of the DOE is happening fast and quietly. But that doesn’t mean we have to stay quiet too.

What You Can Do

You don’t need a degree in policy to take action:

  1. Find out if your child’s school receives Title I or IDEA funding.
  2. Ask your district what plans they have to replace federal support if it disappears.
  3. Attend school board meetings. Ask about equity. Ask about special ed. Ask who will enforce student rights.
  4. Contact your state representatives. This fight has officially moved to the states.
  5. Stay loud. Stay informed. Share this post. Talk about it.

Final Thoughts

This isn’t just about “big government” or “wokeness” or whatever the latest culture war slogan is. This is about real protections, real funding, and real consequences for millions of students.

You shouldn’t have to be wealthy—or lucky—to get a decent education. And if we let this go unchecked, that’s exactly what will happen.
