The U.S. Department of Education announced on October 23 that Secretary Linda McMahon's "Return Education to the States" 50-state tour has completed its 47th stop in Utah and its 48th stop in California.

In California, McMahon visited Providence School, a private Christian school, observing science, art, athletics and music classes, and later took part in a fireside chat at the Reagan Ranch Center in Santa Barbara.

In Utah, beyond the keynote address to some 1,200 students, educators and parents at American Preparatory Academy that GSM previously reported, McMahon visited the school's elementary literacy, middle-school history and character-education classes, joined a literacy roundtable, accompanied students on a field trip to the Utah State Capitol, and visited the Canyon Heights Adult Learning Center.

The department said the tour is intended to hear from educators, students and families across the states as it pursues returning education decision-making to states and local communities.
