Summary

Ginny Gentles joins the podcast to discuss this month’s policy focus: Learning Loss. We explore how the lowest-risk demographic — children — have struggled throughout the pandemic because of school closures and remote learning. We discuss the learning loss data, and how this has impacted not only children’s mental health but also their ability to thrive in college and the workforce. Virginia (Ginny) Gentles is the director of the Education Freedom Center at Independent Women’s Forum and is a contributor to Independent Women’s Network. Ginny is a long-time school choice advocate and former state and federal education policy leader. She served as a senior political appointee in the U.S. Department of Education under President George W. Bush, and her work has appeared in National Review, Newsweek, City Journal, Real Clear Education, and Townhall.--She Thinks is a podcast for women (and men) who are sick of the spin in today’s news cycle and are seeking the truth.
