First lady Jill Biden will be making her third trip to New Jersey on Thursday.

InsiderNJ.com reports Biden will visit Bergen County College in Paramus to make an announcement with Education Secretary Miguel Cardona. Students and staff of several offices at the college were made aware of the visit.

The topic of the announcement was not disclosed but the Department of Education announced Tuesday that every state education agency had received approval of their respective American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief plan. The $122 billion in funds is intended to help keep schools open for in-person learning during the pandemic.

A spokesman for the college referred questions about the visit to the White House on Wednesday morning which did not respond to New Jersey 101.5's request for more information.
