A student asked me yesterday what do I hope to learn from all that is happening- I simply said “I hope that it shows and brings out the best in humanity & the human spirit, that we lift each other up & support each other in our time of need”

Where a student is from should not determine their future. There must be equal opportunity for everyone, no matter their zip code. That's why we partnered with @FirstBook & our member companies, like @L3HarrisTech, to inspire the next gen of #STEM leaders: https://t.co/oDBZGDAC57

[KIDS COUNT @aecfkidscount]

With the kids at home 24/7, it’s understandable to be struggling to come up with enough activities to fill the day. Start with establishing a daily routine. https://t.co/pyVdugxJV9
