Jill Biden, Education Secretary Miguel Cardona visit Erie County

It s going to get better, Biden, wife of President Joe Biden, told Bukoski. It is, Bukoski responded. I can already feel it. The exchange captured much of what Biden and Cardona came to Erie County to discuss: How the COVID-19 pandemic has changed education and forced teachers, students, parents and others to adapt to a new landscape of learning and how there is, as Biden put it, light at the end of the tunnel as the pandemic continues.  Biden, Cardona and National Education Association President Becky Pringle met with parents and teachers in the school library to hear how the Fort LeBoeuf School District community has successfully returned to the classroom.
