A special thank you to ad legend Roy Spence for hosting the discussion! #AWNewYork24 Launched in 2022 with our founding partner, the Daniels Fund, the #NationalCivicsBee is a groundbreaking response to the need for better civics education. 🇺🇸 Hear from U.S. Chamber Foundation President Michael Carney and Daniels Fund President and CEO Hanna Skandera in their latest opinion piece, where they discuss why this initiative and others like it are so crucial for our future: https://lnkd.in/eFpbM_4k

New from the Commerce Meets Classroom blog this week: our back-to-school wishlist! We identified five priorities for the 2024-2025 school year as communities across the country continue the good work of getting students back on track after the pandemic. Student achievement should be our top priority this and every year, and in this blog, we highlight five key strategies that communities can take to support their students, including making smart spends of ESSER dollars, focusing on academic supports and attendance, and more work-based learning opportunities in schools and classrooms. Check it out below! https://lnkd.in/ekFNnCcZ
