Early childhood education is the most important educational issue that we face as a nation.

What’s it like to come together with strangers from three states and create a band performance in just a few hours?

Kentucky’s class of 2019 scored an average of 19.8 on the ACT, about a full point below the national average –  20.7.

Forget A’s, B’s and C’s – after four years, the Kentucky Department of Education has a new way of classifying public schools: a five-star accountability system.

Some say that teachers carry the future on their shoulders. One Kentucky educator has taken that saying to the next level.

Keeping kids engaged during the summer can help them stay on track academically. The Louisville Cultural Pass program is aimed at preventing summer “learning loss” by providing more than 50 free activities – entry into museums, the zoo and StageOne Family Theatre. These are fun, educational activities. Kids won’t even notice they’re learning.

Don’t let your kids stop learning this summer. Podcasts are an easy, entertaining way to sneak in some education. Pro tip: Utilize them during long road trips.
