It's #ChildrensBookWeek, celebrating children's books and the importance of literacy and reading! Recent research shows children enrolled in the Imagination Library build strong early reading foundations that help words, characters, and dreams take root. https://t.co/qHRtPrNrDF

Fran and I had a great visit to Marr/Cook Elementary School in Clermont County this morning to celebrate the school’s exceptional work to help their students see their best and read their best.

Marr/Cook Elementary School earned the 2026 Governor's Science of Reading Champions Award for their work in literacy, and they participate in the new OhioSEE program, which is bringing crucial vision services directly to the school.

Thank you to President Donald J. Trump and First Lady Melania Trump for inviting Fran and me to the White House to welcome His Majesty King Charles III and Her Majesty Queen Camilla on their state visit to the U.S. Fran and I were joined by our daughters Jill, Alice, and Anna for this special occasion. Moments like these remind us of the importance of the strong partnership and shared values between our nations.

🧠 Did you know that 80% of a child's brain is developed by the time they turn three years old?

📖 @ImaginationOhio is working hard to ensure that more books are available in the homes of children under five, supporting their cognitive development.

When we created the Women’s Suffrage Centennial Commission in 2019, we wanted to promote and teach the public not only about the history of the movement but also about its impact on our society by highlighting exemplary Ohio women of the past and present.
