Little Rock, Arkansas – Second Lady Usha Vance will join Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders in Central Arkansas on October 20 for a visit focused on education, with stops planned at a North Little Rock elementary school and the Governor’s Mansion.
According to information from the governor’s office reported by THV11, Vance and Sanders will visit Glenview Elementary School, where they are scheduled to host an education roundtable and lead an assembly for the student body.
The school visit will bring the second lady and governor together for two distinct activities: a discussion centered on education and a gathering involving Glenview’s students. Both are part of the same day’s schedule in Central Arkansas.

The reception will focus on those educators and their recognition through the fund. The report did not name the teachers who will attend or specify how many recipients are expected at the mansion.

The visit is scheduled for Tuesday, October 20. Specific start times for the Glenview Elementary activities and the Governor’s Mansion reception were not provided in the report.
