Chamber President Weighs in on Education Issues at Roundtable
Knoxville Chamber CEO and president Mike Edwards recently participated in an education roundtable conversation with other community leaders, which was held by the Knoxville News Sentinel.
The group discussed issues facing East Tennessee public education and what steps need to be taken to ensure a bright future for the region.
Edwards said, "Well today … we can't write off 50 percent. So, whatever we've been doing that doesn't work has to end. And I think by the time we strip it all down we're going to have to get to individualized learning and individualized teaching. We've got to build a model that will do that."
