On Wednesday, Feb. 8, U.S.  Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona will travel to Omaha, Nebraska,  where he will focus on career pathways and mental health programs. Secretary  Cardona will first head to Omaha Public Schools’ Bryan High School to tour  its Urban Agriculture, Design & Construction, and Transportation &  Logistics academies, as well as have a conversation with students about their  experience in a career-technical education (CTE) program. He will also  participate in a roundtable with principals, superintendents, and therapists to  discuss the mental health services provided to students in rural communities at  Educational Service Unit #3.
