Rights to Help Parents Seek High-Quality Education for Their Children

Secretary of ED Arne Duncan released a set of rights that outline what families should be able to expect for their children's education. Announced as part of the Secretary’s speech during the 2015 National Parent Teacher Association Convention and Expo, the rights address access to:

  1. Free, quality preschool
  2. High standards and engaging teaching and leadership in a safe, supportive, well-resourced school
  3. An affordable, quality college degree
