The first four-term governor in state
history (1977-1985, 1993-2001), Hunt led efforts to improve
the state’s schools, enhance the quality of teaching
and provide programs for children to achieve early
educational success. Hunt’s Smart Start program for
pre-kindergarten children provides quality health care,
childcare and family support for each child who needs it.
Hunt has devoted a significant portion of his career to the
improvement of teaching in the nation’s schools. He
served on the Carnegie Task Force, which created the National
Board for Professional Teaching Standards and has served on
the Spellings Commission on the Future of Higher
Education.
