One thought on “Education Round-up: June 2021

  1. One of the standout sections of the blog post focuses on equity and inclusion in education. It highlights initiatives to address racial disparities and promote diversity, such as a new executive order in Washington state aimed at dismantling barriers to educational access for marginalized communities. This emphasis on creating more inclusive and equitable learning environments is crucial for building a fairer and more just education system.
