We’re excited to announce that on Monday, November 3, First Lady Michelle Obama will take to Tumblr for the first time to answer your questions on education as part of her Reach Higher initiative, which aims to inspire every student to take charge of their future and complete their education past high school.
Getting a higher education has never been more important, because in today’s economy, a high school diploma just isn’t enough. That’s why the First Lady is working to rally the country around President Obama’s “North Star” goal -- that by 2020, America will once again have the highest proportion of college graduates in the world.
If you’ve got questions about preparing for college or how to pay for it, here’s how you can join the conversation:
- Starting today, ask your education questions for the First Lady on the White House Tumblr page. Be sure to get your questions in by 10:00 am ET on Friday.
- Beginning at 4:00 pm ET on Monday, November 3, we'll post the First Lady's answers to your questions on WhiteHouse.Tumblr.com.
- If you miss the Q&A, a recap will be posted on the White House Tumblr page and WhiteHouse.gov.
Learn more about the First Lady's initiative and how you can reach higher at WhiteHouse.gov/Reach-Higher, and then ask the First Lady a question on Tumblr before her first-ever Tumblr Q&A on Monday, November 3.
