On Tuesday, Secretary of  Education Miguel Cardona will continue the “Help is Here” School Reopening Tour, visiting schools in Philadelphia and Upper Darby, Pennsylvania. The  visits are part of the Biden Administration’s broader efforts to support  states, schools, students, parents, and educators as they navigate returning to  in-person learning and highlight how the American Rescue Plan will aid them in  these efforts.
During the “Help is Here” tour,  Secretary Cardona will visit schools that have successfully reopened and stayed  open to highlight best practices and discuss how schools can ensure reopening  efforts are advancing educational equity. He will also visit schools that are  facing challenges as they work to reopen to provide educators with  encouragement, support, and technical assistance. Secretary Cardona will share  what he is hearing and learning on the visits with other states and districts  and across the Biden-Harris Administration, to help more schools reopen quickly  and safely and reach the President’s goal of reopening the majority of K-8  schools within the first 100 days of his administration.
These visits will consist of stops  in Philadelphia and Upper Darby, Pennsylvania on Tuesday, April 6. Due to  COVID-19 restrictions, the events will either be pooled press or media will be  required to RSVP. More details can be found below:
