FutureEd at Georgetown (part of Georgetown University McCourt School of Public Policy) asked me to do a deep dive into the racist, elitist phenomena of gifted education. After a year of research, here are my (somewhat counterintuitive) conclusions: if we want a diverse workforce, we need more gifted education and more tracking. Take a read. Let me know your thoughts.

?? The White House recently held the Every Day Counts Summit to address #ChronicAbsenteeism and #StudentEngagement. Amongst the new actions and resources that the Biden-Harris administration announced was our latest EdResearch for Action brief titled Strengthening School Connectedness to Increase Student Success. In a school setting, the dependable presence of caring adults, even just one, can set youth on the path to health and success.
