A Conversation with Dr. William Kirwan, Chair of Commission on Innovation & Excellence in Education 

Thursday, July 27, 2017, 12:30 - 2:00 PM

Maryland Philanthropy Network continues to look for ways in which funders can stay engaged with public policy in the off-season to help affect systemic change in education. To that end, we are hosting a conversation with Dr. William E. (Brit) Kirwan for a discussion on the Commission on Innovation and Excellence in Education.

The Commission is charged with reviewing and assessing current education financing formulas and accountability measures and how educational funds are expended. The Commission will make recommendations to Governor Hogan in December regarding legislative and policy initiatives to increase the availability of innovative educational opportunities and making adequate and equitable the funding for State public education. This critical work will have long lasting impact on education in Maryland.

Please join us as we engage with and lend support to Dr. Kirwan and the Commission members during this process.

This program is for Maryland Philanthropy Network members and invited guests only. Lunch will be served.
