JUST ANNOUNCED: One Million Degrees is honored to announce Dr. Janice K. Jackson as the featured speaker at our 20th Anniversary Degrees of Impact Gala on Friday, May 29.
Dr. Jackson previously served as CEO of Chicago Public Schools, where she oversaw record-high graduation and college enrollment rates and earned national acclaim for her transformative leadership. Her career has been defined by a sustained commitment to expanding educational access and outcomes for students across the city—work that intersects directly with the scholars OMD has supported for two decades.
As we mark twenty years of impact, Dr. Jackson's leadership and perspective on community college as a vehicle for economic mobility make her a fitting voice for this milestone moment.
