5 Conversations On Creating a New Public Education Agenda


Center for American Progress

This 5-part online event series will explore the five key issue areas that a new public education agenda should include. Every Wednesday, from May 6, 2020 – June 3, 2020, experts from across the education field will discuss how educators are adjusting to virtual schooling, the history of the federal government’s role in providing equal access to high-quality and equitable education to all students, preparing students for the future of work, what charter policy could look like in the future that puts equity at the forefront, and the need for greater and more targeted federal investment in education.
