A spokesperson for Musk did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Musk has expressed interest in launching a school in the past and event started a small private school, called Ad Astra, for his kids and children of company employees in 2014. Musk said in 2015 that Ad Astra doesn’t have any grades and focuses on “aptitudes and abilities” instead.
More recently, Musk has voiced interest in starting a Montessori-style school in Snailbrook — a company town the billionaire is working on building in Bastrop, Texas — according to a Wall Street Journal earlier this year.
The billionaire once joked about creating a Texas Institute for Technology, or “TITs” for short, and has made several comments on X regarding the state of education in the US.
“SpaceX and Tesla have noticed a meaningful degradation in the capability of US college graduates over the past several years,” Musk wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, on Monday.
