If we want America to remain the world's greatest meritocracy, a place where the American dream isn't defined by class or color, then educational institutions must lead the way. @ATI_Talent brings together top colleges and universities committed to expanding access for low- and moderate-income students - and it was great to meet with presidents from these schools in NYC.

It's more important than ever to ensure that high achieving, low-income students get the support they need. Our @CollegePoint program, led by @MatriculateOrg, provides 1-on-1 college advising. Learn how they're helping increase access to higher ed: nyti.ms/3PBa2bm

We can't let pandemic learning loss hold kids back from a lifetime of opportunities. Summer Boost, launched by @BloombergDotOrg, had tremendous success getting rising first-ninth grade charter students in NYC back on track. on.wsj.com/3Iw5E8g

The Career Readiness and Modern Youth Apprenticeship program announced by @NYCMayor is great news for students, businesses, & our city. I'm glad that @BloombergDotOrg is supporting this work, in line with our efforts to help students access apprenticeships and skills training.

Education has been turned upside-down by the pandemic. That’s why @BloombergDotOrg is increasing our support of career and technical education programs for young people as they prepare for and enter the workforce in this critical moment. bloombg.org/3H5WcH7

At @BloombergDotOrg, we've spent years ensuring talented first-gen, lower-income students apply to & enroll in schools they deserve to attend. I'm glad to share the Emma Bloomberg Center at @Princeton will expand access to opportunity in higher ed. bloombg.org/3n7K1QM
