FORMER GOVERNOR SUSANA MARTINEZ HAS BEEN NAMED TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF JEB BUSH’S FOUNDATION FOR EXCELLENCE IN EDUCATION. BUSH CALLED MARTINEZ A VISIONARY LEADER WHO ADOPTED STRONG EDUCATION REFORMS WHEN SHE WAS GOVERNOR.
THE APPOINTMENT COMES AS THE NEW LUJAN GRISHAM ADMINISTRATION LOOKS TO ROLLBACK POLICIES ON TEACHER EVALUATIONS AND SCHOOL GRADES. AND THE DEMOCRATIC CONTROLLED LEGISLATURE IS EXPECTED TO PASS BILLS THAT WILL REVERSE MANY OF THE EDUCATION POLICIES PUSHED THROUGH BY MARTINEZ.
