We are delighted to announce the launch of our Community Forum on Education Tour designed to foster productive conversations between education policymakers, educators, families, and communities.
With a goal of bridging gaps and amplifying diverse voices, this tour provides a unique opportunity for everyone who cares about education to come together for open, solution-oriented discussions.
The format of each forum is designed for maximum impact. The first half of the event will focus on key predetermined topics that resonate with the educational needs of our communities. From student success to mental health support, and from curriculum innovation to family engagement, these topics will be led by a dynamic panel featuring state and local education leaders, education thought leaders, students, and community voices. Their insights will lay the groundwork for deeper conversations.
The second half of each forum is where your voice truly shines! Audience-led discussions will allow participants to share experiences, ideas, and solutions in real time. Whether you're a parent, teacher, student, or community leader, this is your chance to be heard, ask questions, and explore how we can all work together to create better educational outcomes.
Our forum host, Dr. Renard Harris, host of South Carolina Public Radio’s Teachable Moments, will guide these lively and thoughtful discussions, ensuring that each forum is a welcoming and engaging space for everyone.
Don’t miss this opportunity to make your voice part of the future of education!
