ICYMI: Governor Youngkin on Education Reform

Share This Article:

“While people across the political spectrum agree that education is key to providing the very best opportunities for our children, our current education system is leaving far too many children behind,” Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin wrote in a CNN.com op-ed last week.

On Thursday night, Youngkin joined CNN’s Jake Tapper for a town hall devoted to education in America. The governor addressed the scandal of Fairfax County schools withholding merit commendations from students. “When a school hires consultants to come in and teach equity for all students, equal outcomes for all students at any cost, we end up with these kinds of circumstances,” Youngkin said. “We have to celebrate excellence. We shouldn’t embrace equity at the expense of excellence.”
