Teachers' union presidents Randi Weingarten (American Federation of Teachers) and Becky Pringle (National Education Association) spoke at the Center for American Progress' annual IDEAS conference in Washington, D.C. They said that the national debate about parental involvement in K-12 public education was a false narrative, explaining that parents play an integral role and that “extremists” were trying to cause division through culture war talking points. They also discussed the opportunities and practical skills associated with career and technical education. The Washington Post's Alexi McCammond moderated the conversation. close
