7:32Now PlayingPresident-elect Joe Biden has chosen Miguel Cardona, the Connecticut schools chief who has advocated for reopening schools amid the coronavirus crisis, as his choice for education secretary, the transition team announced Tuesday.
Biden had committed to selecting someone to lead the Education Department who has been in the classroom, and Cardona began his career as an elementary school teacher before becoming a principal.
“Even as we work to reopen our schools safely and responsibly, we also need to build a public education system that lifts up all Americans, regardless of race, background, or zip code,” Biden said in a statement. “Miguel Cardona is not only an experienced public servant, he is also a former public school teacher and administrator who understands what our students, teachers, and schools need to be successful.”
