Education Reform
To this day, federal education laws and programs continue to allow and enable discrimination against students. Education is a power reserved under the 10th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, yet federal policy and funding remain outdated compared to the advancements of States. Laws set in place need improvement to address systemic barriers to ensure all students regardless of background or socioeconomic situations have access to high-quality learning.
From early childhood to adulthood, education is a right.
It is important to transform learning and empower our teachers by:
Strengthening public schools
Refining curriculum and standards
Develop curriculum standards through integration of stakeholders (i.e educaters, policymakers, subject matter experts, and community members)
Create relevant and challenging standards to reflect current and future needs
Invest in teacher training , instructional materials, and classroom resources
Developing teachers
Build programs to enhance teachers' content knowledge, pedagogical skills, and classroom management techniques
Build environment of ongoing improvement and effective evaluation
