DES MOINES – Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds has been selected to serve on the National Lieutenant Governor Association (NLGA) State Strategies in Education committee for 2014-2015. The selection comes in addition to Reynolds’ position as NLGA Chair-Elect and Chair of the Policy Resolutions Committee. She was nominated to serve with peers nationwide by the NLGA Chair Connecticut Lt. Gov. Nancy Wyman.

“I’m honored to have been chosen, and pleased to be able to serve as the chair of this critical committee on education,” said Reynolds. “Iowa has been a leader nationally in terms of our innovative Teacher Leadership and Compensation System, the Governor’s Science, Technology, Education and Math Advisory Council and our transformational education reform. Governor Branstad and I know that to ensure our children are prepared for the jobs of tomorrow, they must have a world-class education today. I look forward to the opportunity to share Iowa’s story and am eager to hear of progress occurring in other states.”

Reynolds was elected Iowa’s 45th Lieutenant Governor on Nov. 2, 2010. She serves as the co-chair of the Governor’s Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) Advisory Council. Her passion for STEM education was recognized by STEMconnectorTM when she was the only elected official named to their “100 Women Leaders in STEM.” She currently chairs their STEM Food & Ag Council. She has led economic development trade missions to China, Germany, South Korea, Vietnam, the Philippines and Thailand.

NLGA is a professional association enabling policy discussion on a broad range of topics, an exchange of best practices, and an opportunity for lieutenant governors to develop leadership priorities and shared solutions for the states and territories. See www.nlga.us for more information.
