On Wednesday, lawmakers had some tough questions for Miguel Cardona, President Biden s nominee to be the next U.S. education secretary. The Connecticut educator was asked about student loan debt forgiveness, policies for transgender students and, most critically, how he would help schools reopen as the pandemic rages.
Members of the U.S. Senate s education committee didn t have much to go on as they prepared for Cardona s hearing. That s because, along with most of the country, many of those lawmakers are just getting to know him.
In a Biden administration full of familiar faces, Cardona is relatively new to the national spotlight. His biggest job to date has been as Connecticut s education commissioner, a role he s filled for just the past year and half.

Teachers and administrators will begin work on a new professional employee Memorandum of Understanding in January.
Tennessee established the collaborative conferencing process in 2011 following changes in state law regarding teacher contract negotiations.Â
At the time, the board and the Cumberland County Education Association were in the middle of a negotiated contract, which expired in August 2013.
Collaborative conferencing is the process where the chairman of the board of education and the professional employees, or designated representatives, meet to confer, consult, discuss, exchange information, opinions and proposals related to terms and conditions of professional services using the principals of âinterest-based collaborative problem solving.â That term is not defined in the law, but Tennessee Department of Education guidance points towards a process where the parties discuss areas of concern in a non-adversarial manner.
