President-elect Joe Biden reportedly plans to nominate Miguel Cardona to serve as the next secretary of education. ASSOCIATED PRESS President-elect Joe Biden announced his plans to nominate Miguel Cardona, currently the top schools official in Connecticut, to serve as the next secretary of education on Tuesday evening. If selected as Secretary of Education, Dr. Cardona would be a positive force for public education — light years ahead of the dismal Betsy DeVos track record,” said a recent statement from the Connecticut Education Association, before Cardona’s nomination was officially announced. “Miguel Cardona is not just a proud product of public schools — he’s made strengthening public education and fighting for equity his life’s work,” she said. “With his experience as a student, fourth-grade teacher, principal, assistant superintendent and commissioner in Connecticut, Dr. Cardona — a former AFT member — will transform the Education Department to help students thrive, a reversal of the DeVos disaster of the last four years.” On the ground in Connecticut, he’s been able to retain the support of stakeholders, even when he’s at odds with their views, by taking pains to understand the perspectives of others and placing an emphasis on collaboration.
