The seven-month long lawsuit concerning whether or not masks are constitutional in schools will continue after the Hartford judge presiding over the case denied a summary judgement Monday.
WASHINGTON President-elect Joe Biden selected Connecticut Education Commissioner Miguel Cardona to be his Education secretary on Tuesday, adding another Latino to his roster of Cabinet appointees and choosing a leader who has pressed schools to remain open for in-person classes during the pandemic..
Cardona’s selection fulfills Biden’s campaign promise to name an educator with public school experience as his nominee for the post. He has spent his entire career in Connecticut, working as an elementary school teacher, principal, district administrator and assistant superintendent, as well as adjunct professor before being named Connecticut’s state chief last year by Democratic Gov. Ned Lamont.
