In an environment where virtue-signaling and partisanship seem more important than thoughtful policy, there are leaders across the country who are stepping up to enact policies that rise above the Twitter echo chamber and point us toward a future in which every child can read and all students can access a dynamic and personalized educational experience.

One of those leaders is Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who has embarked on a bold effort to address the barriers facing students in her home state of Arkansas, offering solutions aimed at making the state a national leader in student-centered education policy. It’s a comprehensive approach similar to the one we took to transform Florida’s struggling education system in 1999, and it will undoubtedly help the students of Arkansas reach new heights.
