On June 9, 2022 we hosted a conversation in Holyoke on the state of education in Western Massachusetts. This event put a local focus on the findings of our Condition of Education in the Commonwealth report and brought together members of the business and education communities to discuss supporting educators and planning for the future after the challenges of the past two years.
