On Wednesday, Feb. 15, U.S. Secretary of Education  Miguel Cardona will travel to Jackson, Mississippi, where he will focus on out-of-school programs funded by the  American Rescue Plan (ARP) and strong teacher pipeline programs. Secretary  Cardona will head to Casey Elementary School to tour the school and meet with  the after-school program partners to learn more about how ARP funding is supporting their out-of-school time efforts, as  well as speak with them about the importance of these programs for their children’s  academic recovery, connected to the Department’s Engage  Every Student initiative.  Afterwards, amid the national teacher shortage crisis, Secretary Cardona will  head to Jackson State University to learn more about their efforts to encourage  and train more diverse teachers by strengthening their teacher pipeline  program.

A press gaggle will take place following the roundtable  conversation with students in the teacher pipeline program.

This trip comes on the heels of Secretary Cardona’s  recent major address, “Raise the Bar: Lead  the World,” where he laid out his continued priorities to promote  academic excellence and boldly improve learning by ensuring every student has  access to accelerated learning and by eliminating the educator shortage for  every school.
