Media
The Governor and
the Secretary of Education have overseen an array of strategic educational
investments that are reaping academic results. Pennsylvania has been recognized
nationally for many of its education initiatives, and this page enables us to
share our education goals with the media and you.
The Office of Press and Communications works closely with all program
areas of the Pennsylvania Department of Education to provide critical
information to the public regarding education initiatives. Press and
Communications works with reporters throughout the Commonwealth as well as the
general public to provide answers to questions, distribute education
information, maintain web data and serve as the public's contact on education in
Pennsylvania.
The office staff includes:
Nicole Reigelman, Communications Director
Eric Levis, Press Secretary
Tracey Dukert, Digital Director
