Ideas on Tap Jackson: The Future of Public Education in Mississippi

April 23, 2019 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

Free

On April 23, join the Mississippi Humanities Council and the Phil Hardin Foundation in Jackson for the first in a special two-part Ideas on Tap series on public education in the state.

The program will feature an ideologically diverse panel of education policy experts to discuss different approaches to improving public schools. Panelists include Grant Callen (Empower Mississippi), Nancy Loome (The Parents’ Campaign), and Rachel Canter (Mississippi First). MHC Executive Director Dr. Stuart Rockoff will moderate.

A follow-up program that addresses public education in Jackson will take place on May 21. Both programs are part of a larger yearlong series on public education in communities around the state.

As always, snacks and great conversation are on us, and drinks are on you.
