POINT LOOKOUT, MO. — Sarah Huckabee Sanders, former White House press secretary, is the second featured speaker to be announced as part of The National Symposium on Patriotic Education, to be held via livestream Sept. 16-17, 2021.

The purpose of the Symposium, which is hosted by The William S. Knight Center for Patriotic Education at College of the Ozarks, is to revive historic American values and virtue on the eve of the 250th anniversary of America’s founding. Sanders joins Dr. Ben Carson, former United States Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Sanders was White House press secretary from 2017 to 2019. Sanders provided consultation on everything from press and communications strategy to personnel and policy. For two-and-a-half years, she handled media relations, worked with lawmakers and CEOs, and traveled across the globe, meeting with dozens of foreign leaders. Sanders is only the third woman and the very first mom ever to hold the job of White House press secretary.

During the Symposium, participants can expect to hear from nationally known speakers, learn about patriotic education programs, connect with thought-leaders and practitioners, and access innovative patriotic education content and resources.
