My biggest takeaway from the @AdCouncil report on school attendance - Families of kids who are absent a lot need to hear from their child's TEACHER with KIND messages. Easy and low cost approach! Data in this report reminds us all families CARE DEEPLY for their children.

Ella Jenkins' music was my favorite to share with students in my early childhood classroom. Then it was my favorite to sing along to with my own children. Now, I dance to it with my grandchildren. Thank you, Ella, for your gift of music 💝 Happy Birthday! @OhioEngage
