State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond was sworn in for his second term by U.S. Secretary of Education Dr. Miguel Cardona on Saturday, Jan, 7, at the Cocoanut Grove Theatre at Robert F. Kennedy Community Schools in Los Angeles.
“When I took the job as State Superintendent of Public Instruction, I made it clear that education is the key and gateway to a world of opportunities, especially for our vulnerable students and communities. Today, we are much stronger than we ever have been and have created many historic initiatives to transform our schools and uplift our students,” said Thurmond. “As we turn to the next four years, I ask you to help us keep the promise alive for our six million students in the great state of California.”
“We come together at a moment of truth for education. Over the last two years, our nation’s children and young people have been recovering from a pandemic that profoundly disrupted their education,” said Cardona. “The good news is this: We have a chance to raise the bar for the country on improving literacy and math, elevating the teaching profession, improving mental health, promoting multilingual education, and so much more. Let’s get to work.”
L.A. Unified Superintendent Alberto Carvalho and Mayor Karen Bass were on hand for the event.
