Tennessee K-12 and higher education should prioritize accelerating learning, closing college completion gaps, expanding high-quality charter schools, and preparing students for careers in 2022, the State Collaborative on Reforming Education (SCORE) says in a new report.
Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, too many Tennessee students are not making the transition from high school to postsecondary education. In a new op-ed, SCORE President/CEO David Mansouri offers recommendations for meeting the state’s workforce needs and increasing economic mobility for students.
Russ Wigginton, SCORE’s first chief postsecondary impact officer, will work on behalf of students across the state and to help Tennessee set an example for the nation when it comes to postsecondary success for students.
A new SCORE report examines the inadequacies of our current high school model and invites bold ideas on how to improve it.
Dr. Russ Wigginton, formerly vice president at Rhodes College in Memphis, has been named the organization’s first chief postsecondary impact officer.
