ORLANDO - Vice President Joe Biden is scheduled to appear in Orlando, where he'll deliver remarks about the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act to local educators, parents and students.
The White House says Biden will travel to Jackson Middle School Wednesday morning with Education Secretary Arne Duncan. No further details were released on the what he plans to discuss.
Duncan was recently in Central Florida to tour the Lake Nona YMCA/NorthLake Park Community School. He has called Florida a leader in education data collection for how it tracks the performance of individual students and teachers.
