NM Ed Secretary Discusses how Dept. of Ed can Help States Implement ESSA

February 8, 2017

In an interview with The 74, New Mexico Education Secretary Hanna Skandera discussed how the Dept. of Education can help states implement ESSA. Skandera said state leaders need to work together to “ensure states have the flexibility they need to be successful.” Along with flexibility, she argued that leaders are responsible for these students, “not just for success in their district or community, but for success in their state, in this nation and in this world.”
