MBAE and MACP have assembled national thoughts leaders to engage in conversation about how Massachusetts can move learning forward this school year, whether doing it in person or remotely. The event features
John King, President & CEO of the Education Trust and former Secretary of Education in the Obama Administration; John Bailey, visiting fellow at the American Enterprise Institute who previously served in the White House and U.S. Department of Education; and, Karen Hawley Miles, President & CEO of Education Resource Strategies.
