Achievement and opportunity gaps inform, not define, us
As a nation, we talk a lot about the achievement gap. While the achievement gap is an important thing to keep an eye on, it’s not the only gap that matters.
It really is a wonderful life
As we come to the end of the calendar year, I always take time to reflect and rejuvenate, and this year is no different.
Every student succeeds
If passed, the Every Student Succeeds Act -- which is the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act -- will give a lot of accountability control back to the states.
Eliminating the opportunity gap
Despite the improvement we have seen, we, as a state, still have a lot of work to do. We have a significant achievement gap that needs to be addressed.
Proud to Call Kentucky Home
As Kentucky’s new commissioner of education, I want you to know that I value your views, your input and your help in preparing our students for tomorrow.
