Parents Across America: Race, Poverty & Education
Monday, March 2, 2015 7:00:00 PM CST - 8:00:00 PM CST
Given the current state of racial tension in the US, and the fact that more than half of our public school children now live in poverty, this webinar will add relevant data to set the context for a candid discussion about the ways that race and poverty impact educational opportunity for the majority of our children, and what it will take to provide them with an equitable, high-quality education.
Speaker
Dr. Paul Thomas and Nathan Harris
Featuring Dr. Paul Thomas of Furman University and PAA Board member Nathan Harris.
