For the second time in two years, Fairfield-Suisun Unified Superintendent Kris Corey will return to Washington, D.C., to discuss and share ideas about 21st-century high schools.

The Vacaville resident and also Kristen Witt, the school district’s director of secondary education, will attend the White House Summit on Next Generation High Schools, Sept. 12, in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building.

There, they will meet with state and district education leaders, researchers and philanthropists who have developed or funded models for high school “redesign,” a proposal President Barack Obama laid out in his 2013 State of the Union address.
