Submit questions in advance.

As Election Day approaches, the presidential candidates are making their final appeals to voters—including promises to improve education.

Education Week reporters David Hoff and Alyson Klein have reported, blogged, and even “Twittered” throughout the presidential campaign. They will be answering your questions about what the candidates have said about education and how the election’s outcome may affect the most pressing K-12 issues before the nation.

About the guests:
