“From day one, Gov. Tom Wolf has partnered with educators from across Pennsylvania to make public education a top priority,” said PSEA President Rich Askey. “We look forward to continuing the work we started and ensuring every student in Pennsylvania gets a high-quality education.
“Gov. Wolf believes in public education and wants to make sure our public schools have the resources they need to give every student a great education. Pennsylvanians are with him — and so is PSEA.
“On behalf of the 181,000 educators I represent as PSEA’s president, I want to congratulate Tom Wolf and pledge to continue to work with him and his administration to make Pennsylvania’s public schools the very best that they can be.”
