I believe it really started to go downhill for late-Millenials and GenZers for sure. There was such a strong emphasis on standardized testing and strict curriculums, so much that soft skills, socioemotional developmental skills, and interpersonal skills were severely neglected.

Employers often complain GenZ lacks professionalism and other soft skills. This is why. We were raised to sit at desks, do independant schoolwork, and have a 30-minute lunch break. Recess ended in the 5th grade, so that was one less opportunity to freely socialize with peers.

In addition, we have seen a rise in Autistic Spectrum Disorders and psychological disorders over the many years.

I most certainly agree with eliminating the US Dept of Education. I am onboard. They were a huge reason for the decline of the education system. To me, this was too much federal overreach into state affairs.
