About the program

Nearly 90% of the state’s schoolchildren will be learning remotely when schools reopen after summer break. How will the state promote high-quality distance education? How will it help schools ensure that COVID-19 does not exacerbate preexisting inequalities in learning and outcomes? Join PPIC President Mark Baldassare in conversation with State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond for a wide-ranging discussion of how the state can support school districts during this challenging time.
