Alejandra Ceja, executive director of the White House Initiative on Educational Excellence for Hispanics (Initiative), will participate in a roundtable with migrant families in Sunnyside, Washington, on Thursday, Sept. 8, at 6 p.m. PDT.
During the roundtable, Ceja will discuss the Administration’s investments in education—from cradle-to-career—and highlight the importance of early learning, student support services and access to federal financial aid. She will also highlight the importance of completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as a means of accessing a college education.
This will be the third in the series of family roundtable with #MigrantVoices. The Initiative launched its #MigrantVoices family roundtables in partnership with the Department’s Office of Migrant Education, National Migrant and Seasonal Head Start Association, PBS, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The series aims to elevate the voices of migrant students and families while fostering the development of local school and business partnerships.
