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

September 19, 2019 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

Free

On September 19, join the Mississippi Humanities Council, the Phil Hardin Foundation, and The MAX – Mississippi’s Arts + Entertainment Experience in Meridian for the first in a special two-part Ideas on Tap series on public education in the state.

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

A follow-up program that addresses public education in Meridian will take place on October 17. 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.
