Reach Higher is former First Lady Michelle Obama’s college access initiative, operating under the leadership of my guest this episode, Eric Waldo.
He’s hard at work countering the systematic efforts to dismantle the education policies of his old bosses, Barack Obama, Arne Duncan and John King. Reach Higher is responsible – and perhaps best known – for College Signing Day, but also for recognizing the School Counselor of the Year, for their Beating the Odds Summit to control “summer melt” and make sure students who enroll in college actually show up there in the fall, and UpNext, an innovative texting platform to deliver important college admissions information to students’ cell phones.
Eric and I spoke from the annual NACAC conference in Salt Lake City, UT.
