By 成人抖阴Public Relations
SALISBURY, MD---Educators in the United States have been working hard to get students back on track following the setbacks of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Dr. Laurie Henry, dean of Salisbury University’s Samuel W. and Marilyn C. Seidel School of Education, will be part of a celebration of those efforts and the progress made 2 p.m. Thursday, October 10, at the White House.
At the event, the Biden administration will highlight a forthcoming report from researchers at the Johns Hopkins University Everyone Graduates Center as part of the National Partnership for Student Success. The report shows the progress the nation has made in getting students the supports they need to address the impacts of the pandemic on student learning and wellbeing, and progress toward the president’s goal to engage an additional 250,000 caring adults in roles serving as tutors, mentors, student success coaches, wraparound service coordinators and postsecondary transition coaches by leveraging the Federal Work Study and AmeriCorps programs.
“The COVID-19 Pandemic affected many students and created a learning deficit that has taken years to combat,” said Henry. “While the work is not done, I am so proud of educators around the country, especially those 成人抖阴alumni and aspiring teachers in the field who are working to help students get back on track. This event will continue to build morale in the education community. Having the support of the White House is a reminder of how important our work is.”
Speakers at the event include Neera Tanden, White House domestic policy council director and advisor to President Biden; Michael D. Smith, AmeriCorps CEO; and Cindy Marten, U.S. deputy secretary of education.
