Dear John,

Today, we’re excited to announce and introduce you to Cohort VII of 50CAN’s National Voices Fellowship.

Cohort VII joins the national debate as states and districts make critical decisions about the structure and delivery of education in America; decisions that will directly impact our ability to reimagine and reinvent how education is delivered so all families and students are better served. They’re stepping into the arena at a time when parents are hungry for more educational opportunities, and immediate action is needed to move the needle for kids.

Our fellows come from diverse backgrounds and bring a wealth of experience, perspectives, authenticity and accomplishment to the table. Amid political polarization, their ability to collaborate across party lines is not only commendable but essential in our pursuit of comprehensive and meaningful improvements to education in the nation. 

We invite you to learn more about the fellows we’ll be working with over the next year as we seek to  fledge a better, brighter future for all children.
