NASHVILLE, April 18,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Leadership Institute,
renowned for its commitment to cultivating conservative leaders
across the United States, is set
to host the 2024 Learn Right National Education Summit on
April 19th and 20th. This pivotal
event will take place at the JW Marriott in Nashville, focusing on counteracting the
literacy crisis facing America and exploring enduring solutions to
enhance educational standards nationwide.
Recent data highlights a concerning trend in Tennessee, where approximately 44,000 third
graders risk retention due to inadequate performance in English
language arts, as reported by The Tennessean on April 17th, 2024. The Summit will address these
challenges head-on by rejecting the lowering of academic standards
and promoting rigorous, high-quality education frameworks.
Event Highlights:
- Keynote Speakers: The summit will feature a lineup of
distinguished speakers including Congressman Mark Green, Tennessee Representative Mark White, Oklahoma State Superintendent
Ryan Walters, CNN Political
Commentator Alice Stewart, Athlete Advocate Riley Gaines, and Dr.
Mark Campbell, Governor Glenn Youngkin's 2021 Campaign Manager and
Senior Fellow at the Leadership Institute.
- Focus Topics: Discussions will concentrate on reinstating
fundamental educational practices from kindergarten through twelfth
grade, critically analyzing the impact of current policies, and
proposing actionable strategies to prevent the "dumbing down" of
our national education system.
"The ability of our citizens to read and think critically is the
cornerstone of our democracy and a prerequisite for personal and
national success," said Dr. Mark
Campbell. "We are dedicated to revitalizing the educational
landscape to ensure that every student has access to the tools they
need to succeed."
Frederick Douglass said, "Once
you learn to read, you will be forever free." The Leadership
Institute upholds this belief and is committed to ensuring that
freedom through education is accessible to all American
students.
