Career and Technical Education
Career and Technical Education blends academic and career skills with hands-on learning, giving students a competitive edge.
Child Nutrition
Students need healthy, nutritious school meals that are free to all and prepare them for learning.
Community Schools
Full-service community schools meet students’ academic and enrichment needs by recognizing that many students are coping with serious issues that affect their ability to learn and thrive in the classroom.
Education Support Professionals
Education Support Professionals play vital roles inside and outside the classroom. They keep schools and campuses running and ensure students are safe, healthy, and ready to learn.
Educator Pipeline
Ensuring that students in every community have caring, committed, profession-ready educators means improving strategies for recruiting, preparing, and supporting educators at all stages.
Higher Education
Going to college should not mean going into debt. Ensuring that higher education is accessible and affordable to all Americans is key to our nation’s prosperity—and to the well-being of students and families.
Vouchers
Vouchers take scarce funding from students in public schools and give those resources to unaccountable private schools.
