Emerging Priorities in Education Series | The COVID Constituency: Using Polling Insights to Drive Educational Change

Since March 2020, pandemic school closures have forced families to confront shortcomings in our education system. Recent national polls reveal a strong desire to see bold changes in education – a COVID-19 Constituency that does not want education to return to the pre-pandemic status quo. This conversation will feature esteemed education pollster Lake of Lake Research Partners, who will share the results of a national education poll commissioned by the National School Boards Action Center. A panel of education leaders will then offer diverse perspectives on the state of education in the U.S., how polling data can impact education policy change at the local, state, and federal levels, and what change their constituents hope to see in education when pandemic triage ends.

Emerging Priorities in Education Series | Digital Safety for Teachers and Students

While schools are largely transitioning back to in-person learning, districts and states have indicated that digital learning will remain an option through the creation of permanent district-run virtual schools. While this retains a level of flexibility and personalized learning for students who thrived academically during the pandemic, an increase in time spent online is inherently correlated with an increase in risks and threats to student and teacher safety. Join us for a conversation on how the public and private sectors can partner to keep kids and classrooms safe.
