Gov. Kay Ivey addresses the future of education in Alabama
Gov. Kay Ivey has addressed education leaders about how to best shape the future of education in Alabama.
The Cognia Alabama IMPACT Conference brought education leaders and stakeholders from across the state together to focus on student achievement, innovation and school improvement.
Gov. Ivey’s participation highlights the state’s ongoing efforts to strengthen Alabama’s education system and support educators working to improve outcomes for students.
“Y’all aren’t thrilled at the progress that we are making,” Gov. Ivey told the conference. “Let’s keep giving our best because our children deserve the best. Thank you, thank you for all you do to ensure every child has access to a top quality education.”
“Here with the Cognia IMPACT leadership event and just giving an opportunity to just share from a different perspective a different lens of what our all joint mission is, and that is to see kids in whatever capacity that they feel belong, that they belong to something, that they’re safe and that they matter,” Brodie Croyle, the CEO of Big Oak Ranch, said. “We get to do it through the ranch, through providing homes. These guys do it at such a massive level just through school.”
The event was held yesterday at Frazer Methodist Church in Montgomery.
