Strong Communities Start with Strong Schools
This year’s Partners in Education Lunch will shine a spotlight on how strong schools fuel strong communities. We’re bringing together business leaders, educators, and elected officials to collaborate on building pathways that prepare students with the skills they need to succeed in life and in tomorrow’s workforce.
We are honored to welcome Deputy Secretary of Labor Keith Sonderling as our keynote speaker. He will share how partnerships between schools, businesses, and community leaders can open doors for students—developing essential skills, creating meaningful opportunities, and strengthening our future workforce. Additional speakers, including NASCAR legend Michael Waltrip and Hendrick Automotive General Manager Brian McDaniel, will highlight how local employers can play a critical role in shaping the next generation.
Join us on Thursday, October 30th at Cabarrus Arena & Events Center for this inspiring event. Together, we’ll celebrate the power of partnerships and reaffirm our shared belief that strong communities are built on strong schools. Reserve your seat today and be part of the conversation that connects leaders and inspires student success.
