2026 Education Trends in Governors’ State of the State Addresses
Join Education Commission of the States, in partnership with the National Governors Association, for our annual Governors’ State of the State Addresses webinar on Wednesday, March 25. This session will highlight trends in education priorities from governors’ 2026 State of the State addresses across the country.
Each year since 2005, we've tracked, analyzed and identified trends in education policy accomplishments and proposals mentioned in governors’ State of the State addresses. These accomplishments and proposals span across the education spectrum from early care and education to the workforce, which impact policymakers, school leaders, educators, students and their families.
Save your spot to dive into this year’s top education priorities and learn what they may mean in the year ahead!
