Above all, I believe every child, no matter their ZIP code or their parents' jobs, deserves access to a quality education.

The older generations are too wedded to political parties, too wedded to romantic memories of what education was like when they were kids, and too wedded to the status quo group that clings to power.

No student should feel like there isn't a way to seek justice, and no student should feel that the scales are tipped against him or her.

If politicians in a state block education choice, it means those politicians do not support equal opportunity for all kids.

The media has had its fun with me.

I consider protecting all students, including LGBTQ students, not only a key priority for the Department, but for every school in America.

Too many children today are trapped in schools that don't work for them.

If you don't live in an area with good public schools, you can move to a different place if you have the financial means to do so.

It is not fair to think that when students transit through a K-12 system that is not preparing them for beyond, that somehow we are going to wave a magic wand and things are going to be perfect for them at the higher-ed level.
